Why my spouse and I left Law Enforcement. What you need to know.

I'm going to drop some truth bombs here. There are going to be a lot of butt hurt cops and LE on here...but that's because they love LE more than they love the Constitution. It is a tough job--no doubt--but there is no excuse for what goes on.

I left because I love the Constitution, and I won't lie for other cops, or in court, or to make an arrest or bring a charge. Both my spouse and I care about the public and keeping people safe. We care about people reaching their full potential. We believe everyone makes mistakes (think about being a dumb teen) and it is more important to help people, than to bully them into submission. We also believe there are certain segments of society that cannot be redeemed or reformed and must be imprisoned to keep the public safe--and those are the people we wanted to put behind bars.

My current spouse and I both received our Criminology, Police Administration degrees in the late 80's/early 90's.

I can tell you for a fact that LE sees the Constitution as something that OBSTRUCTS them from doing their job. I took countless courses that focused on violating the 4th Amendment rights of individuals, establishing false probable cause, and entrapping individuals. The professors/instructors (most of them were NOT professors, but cops and former cops, were very good at convincing us that things that were unConstitutional were Constitutional, and/or that the ends justified the means.

ALL (WITHOUT EXCEPTION) the cops I worked with or trained with are ANTI 2ND AMENDMENT. Any cops who tell you otherwise are lying to you. Cops believe they are the ONLY ones who should have guns. PERIOD. Any cops who get on here and tell you they want civilians carrying guns are LIARS. COPS HATE THE 2ND AMENDMENT AND WILL DO EVERYTHING TO HARASS YOU and to keep you from owning, carrying, or procuring a gun.

MOST career cops are habitual liars. They lie about probable cause. They lie for other cops. They lie in court. THEY ARE TAUGHT HOW TO LIE...ABOUT EVERYTHING. If two cops are at a scene, they are taught to make sure there are no discrepancies in their reporting or narratives, even if one is lying.

Adultery, spousal abuse, alcoholism, porn addiction is RAMPANT in Law Enforcement. Have you noticed that cops are rarely arrested or charge with spousal abuse, DUI, etc.? Do you really think it is because it's not happening? Having been at the scene of many cop wife beatings, not only were we not allowed to charge the cop, we weren't even allowed to write a report--nothing in writing...just a "cooling" off period...this included times when women even suffered injury, and in instances where the cop was a serial wife beater. One guy, where we were called multiple times....was even awarded "Police Officer of the Year". In most circumstances, police officers won't charge other police officers unless there is a dead body. I worked with police sgts. who were caught shoplifting, DUI, stealing at crime scenes, etc. NO charges...EVER.

If you don't like beating the hell out of people, the cops who work with you will know it and they will see that you are fired. This sounds crazy...but with new probationary cops, a squad of cops will intentionally escalate a situation to the point of physical altercation to see if the probationary cop will engage and go along...if he doesn't...he is in the probationary period and they will see that he is dismissed for "failing to properly engage". Imagine being pulled over for something insignificant and the cop escalates the situation intentionally and you get battered, just to see if a probationary cop will engage--I saw this personally--in this case, the probationary cop was a good guy, a veteran--and got canned because he wouldn't participate in the illegal act.

MOST Cops don't want to "protect and serve" the public. I used to think the job made cops the way they are...but I was wrong. The job ATTRACTS a certain type of individual. There was not much difference between the criminals we worked with, and the cops. Cops want to "protect and serve" EACH OTHER. Police work "serves" a purpose for them, for their egos, for their need to control. This causes a strong psychological addiction to the job--and they will do what they have to to "protect" and feed their addiction. Cops see it as a "war"--they have screwed up psyches and believe it is them verses the rest of the world...you could be an innocent little old church lady...but you are not a cop...so you are the enemy...because they believe it is "war" they see themselves on one side and EVERYONE ELSE on the other side.

MOST cops are only capable of ALL GOOD or ALL BAD thinking. Cops are ALL good, everyone else is ALL bad. If they arrest a Mexican for stealing...ALL MEXICANS ARE BAD. If they arrest a church deacon for molesting a child...ALL CHRISTIANS AND CHURCH PEOPLE ARE BAD--and cops will treat them as such. BUT--if a cop beats his wife...THEY'LL COVER FOR HIM...BECAUSE HE IS ON THEIR SIDE. Does this make sense?? If you see a cop turn on another cop...it is usually a white cop against a Mexican, black, Christian, cop...because they have had experiencing with "bad" segments of those groups.

Good, moral, Christian, Constitution respecting cops--WILL NOT LAST in the job--and if a reason can't be found to fire them--they will never advance beyond patrol officer. They will never become a sergeant or any type of administrator...because somewhere along the line...THEY REFUSED TO LIE FOR ANOTHER COP OR AGAINST A CITIZEN.

Both my spouse and I left LE with our heads held high, knowing we would never be advanced or promoted due to our refusal to lie and violate the Constitutional rights of American citizens. We both have bachelors degrees--I have that and an additional undergraduate degree...but individuals who tested lower and had ONLY A HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION are being advanced and given positions of authority over others. Nepotism is also a big problem in LE--cops kids, spouses, nephews, brothers, get hired all over whether or not they are the best candidate.

If you're a cop reading this...you need to do the right thing. You need to obey the law and the Constitution no matter what you are taught, how you were trained, and what may happen to you. DO NOT LIE FOR OTHER COPS. DO NOT LIE ABOUT PROBABLE CAUSE. BE A MORAL AND GOOD PERSON.

If you are pulled over by a cop or a cop responds to a situation in which you're involved...remember...YOU ARE THE ENEMY, THEY HATE THE CONSTITUTION, AND THEY WILL LIE. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. KNOW YOUR LOCAL LAWS. KNOW YOUR CONSTITUTION. KNOW THAT IF YOU'RE NOT A COP--MOST COPS SEE YOU AS THE ENEMY--

As ugly as this is...it is the truth.
