Speaking just for myself,
Quote:Exactly how many cops do you know?
Currently, 6. Lifetime, in excess of 30 (just an estimate).
Quote:How often do you talk to them?
On average, maybe once a week or a little more.
Quote:How often do they bring beer?
Only once that I recall. They’re more likely to bring wine or food.
Quote:How often do you talk to them about the job?
Practically never, these days.
Quote:How many are you related to?
One, but she’s retired.
Quote:How many live in your neighborhood?
Three.
A lot of internet surveys offer a gift card. When can I expect that?

White guy knows white cops in very limited POC area, ..................... perspective for the WIN!
I'm sure that you know good cops, but then that's not the issue is it.
And most of them are not FROM here....
They came from Grosse Point, Saginaw, Flint, Pittsburg and other "fun" places..... I only know 2 cops that grew up here.
This is EXACTLY the fucking issue.
Good cops leave. They go to places with a lower crime rate - because they ARE the kind who never want to draw their service weapon....

You only live inside your little bubble, and can't look outside it. Anyone who disagrees 'learned about life online' no matter what else they might say. You don't seem to know much about the real world -- learning about it online, or off.

Good for them, I don't have a problem with that. They got out when they could. Tell me, how many are POC?
But that's not the current problem is it.

My response was quite clear. There are of course armed idiots running around from time to time.
Of course people get hit by lightning too.
At roughly the same rate.
Play what shit? The facts? As opposed to made up stats about natural vs man made deaths.
Back to my original point, its a silly article offered as pot stirring click bait. Huzzah to Newsweek.

1. Doesn't alter the point about your original article being clickbait
2. Even if they were quitting that tells us nothing about who is quitting
