oh and.

and tattoos
i pretty much agree with you, but most of that doesnt have to do with the majority of the military members. they signed a 4 yr contract and are stuck under Obamas orders until they can get out.

when you join the military you arent violating individual American citizens constitutional rights (when you work at the lower level and are in your first few years), and if you have a problem with your job, you cant just quit.

cops on the other hand are out and about everyday violating the citizens that they are servants of, and getting paid by the citizens to do so. many cops argue "im just doing my job", but unlike a military member, a cop can quit any day of the week if they dont like their job. this leads me to believe that cops are willing and happy to violate peoples constitutional rights.

i guess i should mention my passions since im in here:

guns, cars, alcohol, and the constitution.

you are surely joking right? as in any profession there will be people who abuse the system they are put in, but why have such a negative sight against police? any officer who is intentionally violating any right of the accused or citizens alike deserves to not work in the field of criminal justice/as a public servant. on that note, yes i am studying criminal justice for my major, but be honest, it is not a matter of people enjoying what they have to do all of the time...? but if it means getting a paycheck to feed your family (and your car addiction ) how is that any different than pushing paper at a job and having to do something you dont want? its not like i want to work in patrol, but it doesnt mean i wont have to do things im not thrilled about....but none of which will be "violating peoples rights."

its probably different for you in TX, and i should have been more clear that its CA cops that i really dislike.

they might have gone over this in your classes, cops are generally there to enforce laws. with that being true, when you live in a state with unconstitutional laws, and have cops enforcing laws, you end up with cops enforcing unconstitutional laws, and therefor violating your constitutional rights.

at the very least here in CA, every single cop, due to their job, supports the (unconstitutional) laws of the state.

like i said, cops will defend their actions with "just doing my job", or "getting a pay check to feed the family", but there are other jobs out there. i have one of them actually, so i can tell you first hand, you dont have to be a cop and violate peoples rights, you can do something else. If cops dont want to violate rights, they can find another job.
