No one is saying anything negative about the police officers. In fact, being the first one to say no, I know for a fact I didn't.
I have nothing but respect for the police, and the job they do. I've got an ex-BIL, and other friends who are all in LE, and after hearing some of the stores told, I do not envy them their jobs one bit.
The question asked though was "Should LE get preferential treatment", nothing more, nothing less. To that, many of us have answered no, and I know I, for one, explained why.
My reasoning has nothing to do with corrupt cops, or anything else. My comment was made in direct concern for HUMAN LIFE. In other words, I expect ALL human life to be held in the highest regard, and if the cops need to create a rolling road block for every ambulance carrying a critically injured person, so be it. I know when my Mom got hit by a car, as a pedestrian, 30 years or so ago,I'd sure have liked to have seen them running interference for her ambulance.
The problem is this does happen, as others who are in the know have stated, but not nearly as often as it probably should.
Again, no one is knocking LE, but to think that LE, or anybody else, would get preferential treatment, paid for by tax dollars that we earned, while those of us that earned those dollars to begin with can't get the same treatment, is flat out wrong.....
