Imagine feeling like every kiss goodbye to your loved ones each day might be your last kiss. Police officers and their families feel this way every single day.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Too many security officers live day to day. They just want to be treated with dignity.
People view the police not as allies, but as antagonists, and think of them not with respect or gratitude, but with suspicion and distrust.
Policemen so cherish their status as keepers of the peace and protectors of the public that they have occasionally been known to beat to death those citizens or groups who question that status.
In almost all cases now the police are as much an enemy as the others.
Not only are police officers often taken for granted, many people are highly vocal about their dislike for cops.
My own perception of cops was that they came into your neighborhood, they roughed up people that you loved for no reason and took them away. As a child you saw that.
As a former cop, I respect and appreciate those who've dedicated their lives to serving others as well as those who appreciate the rule of law and honor it.
I always seemed to fall in love with policemen.
In America uniformed cops eat in coffee shops, diners and restaurants and I always feel safer having them around.
It's a great feeling to know that 100 cops want to stop you doing something and they can't.
