"Glorified Civilians"? Really???? I've been called a son-of-a-*****, and everything in-between, but a "Glorified Civilian" takes the cake! Obviously you've never taken an oath of service; otherwise "Glorified Civilian" would not be able to be processed in your CPU. I took an oath to protect the Civilians/public, therefore I’m anything BUT glorified and an all of a PUBLIC SERVANT. Just my "Glorified" opinion. Law enforcement and Military have to carry a gun to work just to be safe. I have to wear a bullet proof vest to help ensure that there’s a chance I can return home to my family standing up rather than in a box horizontally. I/we get cussed at, spit on, constantly in fights, harassed when we are off duty, careful of our surroundings when we are at our kid’s outings or dinner, just because that’s how it is! How is this glorified? Just wondering….seems a little more like “Humbled Civilian” to me. And yes, there are bad apples in all professions. And I/we are not looking for sympathy, because I/we chose this profession, or better yet, it chose us. Im proud of this! Oh yeah, BTW, Im putting new 6x9's in my car in the next few days!:th_thumbsup-wink:
