Reminder that CCL holders break the law less often than active-duty police.
Also reminder, the police are NOT the military, they are civilian law enforcement, and should have access only to what weapons a regular non-police person has.
Final reminder, the police are NOT our friends. They will absolutely arrest you if it benefits them.
You might well be a “good” cop. But the fact is police in general are not the “friend” of the general public. Your job is to enforce the law. You may well go above and beyond your duty and seek to help people and maybe even choose to enforce the law in such a way as to ignore minor infractions from well meaning individuals. But that isn’t your job.
The way police are trained to act in the modern day automatically puts them in an antagonistic position towards the general public. Unfortunately far too many police officers are quite willing to embrace that position and treat the public like the enemy.
