The past year has been full of anti-cop, anti-authority movements seeking to undermine or destroy law enforcement officers. Only half of Americans have confidence in police officers according to a Gallup Poll conducted in June. Many Americans have this strange idea that law enforcement officers are modern-day Gestapo agents waiting to trample their rights. Our officers are not Gestapo. Contrary to what many think, they can’t discharge one bullet without accounting for it. They are monitored closely and scrutinized heavily by their peers, their superiors and the public.
Are there corrupt police officers?
Yes.
Are they the majority?
No

Grateful for the boys in blue. Today there was a police officer shot and killed that was from one of my old Marine unit. Gunned down after work. This post came timely.
