| 31. I know there are some asshole cops. And they get into that |
|
line of work just to bully around people. But for every asshole cop, there is one who is all heart. And will risk his/her life for you! Pisses me off too! I know what my brother has gone through. He has seen people die, he has rescued people from dying, he and others deserve more than they get. Especially the hate. That is the worst.
