When did cops start being gaslit and told they face danger every second they're on duty? Cause that's a huge lie that gets pushed around a lot. Their job is a lot of boring nothingness, peppered with excitement here and there, just like my job. I'm maintenance and building worker, and my profession is much higher on the danger list than cops, so does that mean I'm also a hero who faces danger every minute?
I feel like it was after 9/11 that cops started acting like an invading army who feel we're all trying to kill them, you can't walk up to a cop and ask a question anymore, they always look so put off that you dared approach them. They always think they're in Kabul, and we're all colonized locals who will murder them, so they must act first against us.
Yes. Thank you for your service.
