Well said and totally agree about degrading people instead of offering good advice or lessons for the job. Plus talking about a damn squirrel. I agree most of these guys probably are degrading people that still put on the badge and come to work everyday to take care of the city. A lot of these guys seem to sound like they don't want you to do anything while on your tour other than answer the radio only. Pathetic which probably gives them time to be miserable. I don't agree with some thoughts. Remember when we would get together(yes have a lot more time than most everybody around here) and work everyones beat together, not get mad if people came over to arrest someone on our beats as long as they told us who it was so we would know. But, that rarely happend because we would all come in hyped up to go out and address the entire districts crime as a platoon. Say what you want but nothing scares a sh(*&bag more than 4 or 5 officers rolling up to check them out. People down here in the West don't do that anymore or don't want to or the Sergeants are scared to. Plus when we would do that the rest of the guys would step up and handle the runs. If we got too busy we would go back do what we needed then go back to working the district as a team. Was called a platoon and district not an individual officer and beat and oh yess the whole platoon was or would be called squirrels. That was then down here and this is now though, a lot of guys don't want to work like that. The amazing thing is they will act all cocky about the fact that they work in the West end, but don't have a clue what we all called the real wild west down here. None of them except maybe a couple can even come close to saying they remember getting in the middle of Cotter or Southwick on a hot summer day. Just sayin.
