Most cops arenāt bad. The media pushes the few bad because it gets the most clicks. Iād like to think most people go into the force to help people. You canāt just make a generalization about a group of people like āall ____ are____ā. Itās just like the super conservative people going āall gay people are pedophilesā. We know thatās simply not true.
I didnāt say itās the same as homophobia. Iām saying the generalizations relate in the same way. Generalizations are NOT fact. Itās basic psychology. And you think I donāt know that? The system is broken and it takes good people to change it. Why are you so against me trying to help people? Most cops are good people. People in every profession mess up but somehow you always bring it back to police officers. Even though firefighters and surgeons and all the other people have been caught doing
āFolks like youā buddy I didnāt do anything. And I donāt lick anyoneās boot. Again, youāre just making shallow generalizations based on what exactly? Iām still in college, Iām not even on the street. If you believe in ACAB, youāre just as bad as those who draw awful conclusions about people based on feelings and the media. The media is NOT an accurate source of info all the way around. There are different types of journalism, too. The world is NOT black and white. I will serve my duty to the
Itās my career choice and I feel very strongly about what Iām doing. I might go into forensics instead but for now, this is where Iām going. This is my path and you donāt have to agree with it. I will grow where I am planted. I have been called to do this job and if I can help people, thatās enough for me. My impact will not go unnoticed and my life wonāt mean nothing. I donāt care if you or whoever disapproves of my career choice, I do it because I know I am strong, hardheaded, and I will speak
up for other people. Iām a loud mouth, I will admit, and that can be put to good use. I can have a voice for people who donāt. Not to mention this job opens up higher level opportunities for me. Any place you go will have a fucked system. America is chock full of āem. Theyāre all killing us one way or another whether is greedy corporations & climate change, insurance companies, or officers abusing power. Just know that I will not be a pawn in that. I can be involved in the system and make an
impact from inside. In fact, people should want others to make change from the inside. Thatās where the real problem will get sorted out. āThe room where it happensā, man. So donāt sit here and tell me my life aspirations and work will be meaningless. You may not know my name but the people I serve in and out of duty will. Change has to start small. It doesnāt just ākaboom! system isnāt fucked anymore. New rules!ā. Small communities and things at the local level are where people gotta start.
