[QUOTE="Rez Exelon, post: 3567490, member: 5800"] Sounds a lot like healthcare. GOP says "too expensive" and Dems say "Lets pay for a good system". No different here. I don't care if I pay taxes as long as my taxes give a return on investment. Things like quality streets, law enforcement, disaster plans, infrastructure, rational laws, things like that. I see a lot of people on a specific political side though that says NO MATTER WHAT that taxes are bad. Well, then we get what we get. As far as avoiding cops --- yeah. I don't make an effort to hang out with them. I've met a lot of ones I think were good guys. I've supported LEO events, but yeah, no, I don't go out of my way to make contact. Too much video of people making that mistake. And right now with the exception of Chauvin (who a lot of folks on this board didn't want convicted) there's a real trend of cops shooting people under questionable circumstances and getting a paid vacation. Or them shooting folks like Daniel Shaver, getting cleared and then filing for permanent disability for PTSD for executing someone. So no, I don't expect anyone to be super friendly until a lot of stuff changes. As far as being overworked and underpaid? Let's look at the systemic defunding of teachers across the country and how teachers are supposed to overcome. And for the record, I support paying them a heck of a lot more than they get too. Want to correct the balance? "Defund the police". Sure it's the worst slogan and tag line possible, but the concept of taking responsibilities away from the cops and transferring them to people specifically trained to handle it shouldn't be all that crazy. Yeah, yeah, it'll cost them funds to pay for the others, but they need that mental break right? Should be a no brainer. [/QUOTE]
