Another one was shot today?
^^^This^^^
I love that the suspect was DRT (dead right there)
He is wearing a mask but it’s not for Covid. Crooks are wearing them all the time because it helps with anonymity when doing bad shit. The DA’s are saying, “No face, no case”. Works in their favor.
Literally my first thought when Covid broke. Said to my Wife, you can now legally walk into a store wearing a mask, not good.
My dad was on SBPD for 30 years, but another era, retired 83 I believe.
What would you say to someone that's considering a career in Law Enforcement?
I wouldn’t advise it right now. But then again, any young man or women who steps up and takes the risk, has enormous street cred in my view. Somebody has to do the job. I have one friend who I worked with for years. His son also became a cop and was seriously injured in an ambush about five years ago, had to retire from TBI. Another, who’s own son is one of the cops from yesterday, sees his son in ICU right now and I have to wonder what’s going through their minds at this time. These events affect lives and families forever.
Send me a pm maybe I know him. I came on in early 85. I still hear names..
I asked my brother in law that same thing a few weeks ago. He's a cop, and has been shot on duty. He said he wouldn't suggest it for those that just want the pay and benefits...other jobs have those. He added though, he'd never discourage someone that wants to be in law enforcement.
A good boy.... getting his life together.. a high school football star and probably potentially in the future would've had the cure for aids.....
Be a fireman
My sheriff buddy always says “should’ve worked for DWP” to me all the time. It’s a great job I’ve been fortunate to not deal with the struggles a lot of my LEO buddies have.
My dad never wanted me in law enforcement, but would have supported me. After wasting time in retail for 17 years, I was able to get 21 years at a special county water district.
