I think LEOs are in an impossible situation these days. It wasn’t that long ago when people respected and followed simple instructions. People were decent and didn’t want to escalate every encounter.Personal feelings vs legal / illegal. Officers of the law are supposed to know the difference , often that’s not the case. The fall back position being they will let the judge decide. Would be nice if that burden wasn’t all on the taxpayers back.
That isn’t the case now. Many people resist and fight back. LEOs are constantly questioned and publicly lynched for anything other than sitting there and taking verbal abuse from every person they encounter.
There are bad people in every occupation everywhere. So yes there are bad LEOs out there, but there is way more bad perps now then ever. Soon there won’t be any LEOs because who in there right mind would want that job. I refuse to help, pull over to help in an accident, pull someone out of the ditch. I won’t do it because people are bad, and I don’t want to be sued. So hats off to any person that wants to make a career of that…
Soon it will be easy since every citizen will have to take care of their own business. There will be no one to call no matter what taxpayers pay. Judges won’t really be needed since nothing will be against the law enough to end up in front of a judge.
