Two cops shot in Vegas

...I'd also protect the current POTUS with my life as well. Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage, Country before self.

Even when the POTUS hates America and is out to destroy the country? Your duty is to the country and the Constitution...not the current goon in Washington.

Depends, are you going to hand me a shotgun?

There is one in the rack.

Until he is no longer the POTUS, yes.

Matt, I'll say this just once and probably not again but it needs to be said. I can't stand your online persona but until you actually cross that line, I have your back. Any citizen that is drawn down on by a criminal, whether backed by the government or not, I will support them in anyway I can.

An idiot wanting cops killed simply because they wear a badge? They are my enemy and they should pray we never cross paths and have reason to test the mettle of one another.

I havent met you but have heard from people I respect that you seem to be a good guy...but, you havent had to make the choice of govt check/pension or Constitution yet. We shall soon see how many of you "good cops" are "just doing your job" or actually give a damn about character and morals.
As far as the LVPD...I wouldnt give two shits if they all got taken out. Associate yourself with trash and you get lumped in with them.

What is this "choice" you keep speaking of?

Pretty sure he is alluding to the point where this country falls into civil war again and this time it is the agents of the government against everyone else.

The biggest problem when it happens will be convincing half the population(including those in charge)of what is actually happening in the big picture, and not making up some new bullshit PC name for "A few isolated incidents."

I think the country is too educated to fall into any form of traditional violent civil war. On that same note I think our countries education is the same reason so many laws and reforms are far left leaning. Though I could be wrong.

Left leaning, right leaning. All in the name of control.

Once people realize it's not left v right, but instead control v liberty we'll have actual discourse in what direction to take the country. As it stands right now there are idiots on both sides who's only difference is in what manner they're going to control you.

Welcome to your world, serfs.

Apparently the America you live in is drastically different than the America I live in.

I don't think it is too educated, but I do think it is too big and widespread for a revolt to be successful. Some areas might have success. The last time I looked only 30% of people in this country had a 4 year degree. Who knows, really. So many variables. I do think we're in the most divisive point I've seen since I've been alive, but it could just still be growing pains even 238 years later. This country is extremely young in the grand scheme of things.

I don't mean by the average person you make contact with I mean by the people actually trying to make a difference. Mainly on the political side of life from city council all the way up. I wish it were just hard workers that want to make a change for the better instead of highly educated narrow minded one way leaning thinkers.

No, a good cop is fine with me. 03 is not a good cop IMO. I've read plenty of his own statements on here and in Canada where he showed what he is. He's a JBT and supports and defends his own kind.

Apparently you can't separate my work with my board activities.

Your loss.

In all fairness, Matt, you can't seem to separate it either. Or at the very least, you struggle to do so, and lose the battle frequently. But I'm sure this will fall on deaf ears since I am the one saying it.

Doing your job means you are a "spirit of the law" type of officer that helps instead of being a "letter of the law" officer that uses authority to intimidate or oppress. If the SHTF, I have plenty of the new currency.

Why is the burden on me to do so when you and others don't have to?
