What a bunch of worthless crybabies...I''m joining this site today...

why is motto "to protect and serve" no longer read on side of police cars?

I note the Ron Cottingham , on the San Diego Police, complained that officers were "accused of X, accused of Y, and accused of Z". Note he did NOT say they were FALSELY accused. I agree with the previous comment, the police have only themselves to blame. The GOOD cops often protect & hide the BAD cops. If they threw them out, their reputation would soar. But they don''t. I have often said there are more criminals INSIDE the police force, than outside, and that is NOT on a percentage basis.

It is amazing that the last voices heard, if at all regards crime, are from police officers. Our police departments across the country should be the first voices heard on what is going on in our communities - about who is committing crimes, where crimes are committed and what is happening in real time when the system breaks down.

A great example of this is the release of criminals on our streets, the constant arresting and re-arresting of criminals. The chief of police of each town should be holding press conferences warning the public of such dangerous occurrences. The Police should be openly critical of judges that endanger the public.

It is time the police end their silence and abdication of responsibility to the politicians, and tell us all what is really happening in our communities. If that sounds too political, then let the police unions hold the conferences.

This openness would save the lives of police and the public alike, and would provide a welcome dose of common sense and support for our police.

Here%u2019s what happened in Mendocino County CA. The board of Supervisors who are pro marijuana manipulated the vote and the laws to unleash thousands of local drug dealers. Now all the cops have been instructed to see, hear and smell nothing. So they obey. Now we have a forty billion dollar a year pot industry in our county that fills most of the schools in the nation with pot. Thousands of people have moved here from all over the nation and the world specifically to profit from poisoning kids with drugs and all this is county sanctioned. New industries are popping up that just support growing pot like nurseries that advertise nothing but indoor grow scenes. There%u2019s a new college in Berkley that specializes in the growing, processing, sales and distribution of pot.

And all along the cops just went along. Some cops became growers and some just said nothing cause they were afraid of loosing their jobs. If there%u2019s pot in your kids school, don%u2019t just thank the cops, thank the system.

Our kids don%u2019t have a chance.

timetrips1,

if anyone calls 9-11 regardless of who they are and what their oponions are, and nobody answers someone is getting fired and charges will be pressed as well as one hell of a lawsuit filed against the boro or disctrict where this happened.
The cops and emergency response personel are hired public servants, they work for us the tax payers. We can have any oponion we want and it is no concern of theirs. They just need to shut up, do their jobs and answer the phone. Also as a tax payer I always insits that the police in my area call me sir, since they work for me.

cops are public servants, they are paid b the taxpayers in their areas, therefore they should be monitored and rated accordingly.

These cops are so tough aren''t they? Cry babies and I do agree with another comment above regarding the fact that there are many good cops but once they protect the bad ones, they they all become bad. In order for this profession to be more acceptable, the good cops and good depts MUST drive these knuckleheads out of the profession because many are a danger to themselves with guns.
