Fine how is this. MY degree in criminal justice is WORTHLESS.. Better? And yes cops make mistakes. This WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. Here lets try one more experiment. NO offense intended, I promise. This one will show the difference in peoples perceptions based on their life experience. Kinda like no two people see the same thing.
I read this to a few coworkers:
Speaking for myself, I actually earned my degree in Criminal Justice because when I was younger, I aspired to be a Law Enforcement Officer.
There automatic response was, oh great a no it all that couldn't do the job. I cant tell you how many curb side lawyers have their criminal justice degrees.
Then I read this:
Reason I am not a respectable LEO today is because of my unfortunate debilitating back problem. Couldn't pass a physical.
Now I don't know you and i wont insinuate anything negative about you, however their immediate response was not a polite or nice one.
The reason i mention this is it shows how people view thins differently based on life experiences. Im happy you have the luxury to view thins as happy and full of nice people. Im also happy you can be surprised and outraged when you see violence on the news. bet you didn't know it but most cops are so used to violence and the negative in people that nothing surprises us anymore.
