Police, even the ones who are perfectly honest and trustworthy, are often called upon to enforce laws that are blatant violations of the rights of citizens. The current state of "the law" compels them to do so as part of their jobs. Is it really that surprising that rights conscious types view them with mixed feelings? That's perfectly reasonable. We've been inundated by idiots. Tis true. |

True, but I think the idiots have gotten more strident in proclaiming their idiocy in the last few years, especially lately.

That doesn't really refute my claim. You'll see. The past was worse so appreciate how bad it is now is not a compelling argument. |

The retarded responses are increased due to the inability to reconcile their belief that personal freedoms are inalienable and their desire to see the government repress those that they deem as undesirable.
No difference than say... veterans. "Thank you for your service and sacrifice." "Stop being a pussy on July 4th, it's just fireworks." Or politics..... "No sharia law in the US!" "Gay marriage is against the Bible so it should not be legal in the US, we are a Christian nation." Or consumption..... "You can't allow someone to ban big gulps, I like my big sodas. Personal responsibility." "Grow a plant go to jail." |

A lot of members here are cops and I would say there's more support than not. I mean, yes, there has been a rise in the level of retardation but it's all over not just cop threads. The Police Marijuana Baby boomers Fat People. The level of stupid gets insane. Hmmm |

What about not seizing cash you find suspicious solely because it's cash or not signalling your dog to manufacture PC so you can perform a "legal" search? Do feds count? I think I can come up with more examples for Fed LEOs of the top of my head than locals. ETA: Not trying to be accusatory. Consider "you" and "your" as referring to examples of police. View Quote |

They usually give me a laugh and show most of GD has 0 clue how the real world works

The level of retardation constantly paraded throughout any thread involving the police has reached critical levels. Making gun owners look less like responsible citizens and more like self righteous jackasses doesn't help our cause. Yea, CSB. View Quote Dammit I have three remington 870 police magnums in the EE i was counting on you buying them.... Shitfuckingass...suck... |

Idiots exist in all threads, but cop and weed threads seem to get more attention.

Do you want a retarded thread? Talk about the invisible badges that may or may not exist.

What I'm kind of surprised at is here we dodged the Hillary bullet, Tump's appointing decent judges, outside of the blue-ish states there's not a lot going on in gun control, ammo has come down in price, pistols are dirt cheap, there are a ton of new military-ish carbines but a lot of people still seem mad all the time.

Many (most IMHO) LEO's have an us vs them mentality.
Why is it so wrong for citizens to do the same? |

Maybe it's this place that has changed....and maybe it's me....or more likely some combination of the two. Any more it seems like more of an echo chamber than I recall....although I suppose it was always that way and the topics of discussion have simply moved to areas I don't care for. It's not just cop threads.....there seem to be a variety of popular topics that result in a very clear bias among posters here. Those biases (for me) are largely exhausting, uninspiring, without adequate composition. There are a lot of good folks who post here....but there are also a lot of uninformed and ignorant comments which at times grab a lot of traction. Seems like there is also a very strong inclination for binary thought...dualism with a lot of 'black and white' chains of debate. It's that dynamic that troubles me more than anything. To each their own....not my place to judge, but it's tough to not observe the level of absurdity that underpins so much dialogue here. View Quote |

Oh and Bud's awesome. Jesus years ago you had to hunt high and low to get anything but an overpriced glock or a beat up 38 around here. Now I can buy a Coonan while I'm eating lunch

Look through some of these threads. I'm not talking about rights conscious, or mixed feelings. That's perfectly reasonable. We've been inundated by idiots. The bashing shitshows are the embarrassment of the site. And it is telling that the mods and owners even allow the childish shit to get started, much less continue. |

Not the civil war.... It was The War of Northern Aggression. And it wasn't civil at all.

Well if that's the way you feel, you sure don't want to get involved in the "Boomer vs Millennial" threads then.....
