Seems there are more cop haters here than not; and perhaps I've make a big mistake by exposing myself and even greater mistake by defending police and police actions.
I actually can only speak for myself and my personal experience;which was quite a while ago.I too,believe it or not, had many "run ins ' with the cops;mainly because I saw my job very differently than many of them did;but I did it anyway.
I was,from day one, a Very racist cop.If you were in my area and black(there were no Spic's or Asians then in my location);then you knew me, and exactly what I would do.I wore a Confederate Flag pin ABOVE my police badge and made no bones about my WHITE RACIST fidelities.
My "contacts" with normal white people was limited,as I was generally assigned to the Nigger housing Projects because of my "ability" to handle Niggers and keep the fucking peace.I preferred to work in a one man car;alone, without help or witnesses; and in the evenings when all the shit was happening and I would not get board.
I won't defend all cops or feds,even having been both;as I have seen; first hand; REAL evil and corruption up-close; and very personal, in both entities; and can only "try' to interpret the ideals that are supposed to exist within the law; and not attempt to defend the realities of fools,criminals,nuts and mostly inexperienced people who "call" themselves cops or feds.
