For the younger generation, they have more anger and hatred than any others out there from my point of view. In the most recent upset a black man was killed without justifiable cause, to make matters worse is three of his fellow officers stood there and watched. Agreed the black man was a criminal but that did not call for his death in such a horrific way nor did it call for his death at all. No matter how you see this, this happens to whites and blacks, yet no one wants to talk about it. For people like me who run a house, takes care of a grandmother, does home improvement work 30 hours a week, is a full-time writer, etc. there is no time nor energy to discuss this with people who wish to argue instead. I support blue lives, always have and always will. Are all police officers honest and trustworthy? No, sadly. Are all nurses caring and competent? No, sadly. Are all pastors’ true vessels from The Lord? Sadly, no. In December when my monster was in a particular mood for attention and was calling and leaving the weirdest words to me, they insisted that I inform them every time and screen capture the phone calls, so I did. When the officer came over, I showed him the screen capture and he didn’t even look at it unlike all the prior officers. Instead he informed me how he read my file and said, ‘You’re obviously not that worried about him. Change your number and move and this guy is no longer a problem.’ I was shocked and didn’t reply to him. ‘Here’s the screen capture with the time and length of the phone call as I was told to give you so here it is.’ I ended the conversation with simply doing what I was told. When the detective called me the following week he asked if anything new had happened I said yes and I saved the screen captures but didn’t report it. He asked me why and I told him ‘Because your deputy told me that I should change my number and move. Ive left two jobs and moved once already trying to get away from him, how else should I make my stalker comfortable?’ The detective agreed and insisted that I have to live my life the way I want to live it and that I can’t keep running because it will not solve the problem in the bigger picture. ‘Guys like the deputy who said that, makes me embarrassed that he’s on the force. Don’t listen to his advice, please.’ So yes, I too have had not the most pleasant experience with authority. . .but a few bad apples do not make the whole field rotten of this I promise. These men and women every day put their lives in the line of fire to protect us. No one realizes that until they need protecting. In one of my favorite shows, Jack Webb’s Adam 12, ( I have a blog about him coming up) Officer Pete Malloy played by the dreamy Martin Milner is the model police officer and superior. Even someone as perfect as him has his flaws occasionally. In the video attached he uses excessive force he sees its wrong, but he is caught up in a moment of burning anger. He told his sergeant the truth and accepted his penalty for his actions. But even more incredible is when he discovers his friend and fellow officer is crooked, his anger is much purer and if you watch you will see that it is for good reason.
I end this what no one wants to hear yet its true but today no one wants to see nor hear it.
