I have no idea.......

That's what happens when officers promote and start focusing on a career instead of being a cop. The long line of ass-kissing politics start, and they do anything they can to look like they are whipping the troops.

You must have been to my agency. Just about all LT. and higher are this way. They treat everyone else beneath them like shit. It's miserable at times.

Generally, it seems cops are too busy or don't care to interact with people like they used to. It WOULD be nice to see that a little more. I'm not saying ignore calls, but if not on a call and doing a patrol, what's wrong with tossing a football or saying "hi"?

Wait, would that be like smoking at work?

Whatever happened to good ol' days when the local police were like Andy Griffith and an actual part of the community? I miss those days, and I am too young to have been around for them.

I do understand their concern about them being on overtime; budgets need to be watched, but throwing a football with kids should not be the complaint.

But, there are a lot of Barney Fife's walking around.

When you removed foot patrols and put cops in air conditioned, tinted windowed bubbles, you started removing them from being part of the solution. Now they are viewed as interlopers that the community do not trust as they don't know them.

That's a generality of course.

Geez... I do this all the time! Last week before I went on paternity leave, I was on a bike patrol at the Local HS and saw a coach and PE kids on the track running in this 100+ heat. Later found out they were running/walking a mile. I dropped my bike, took off helmet and ran a lap and a half with some of the slower kids. THen I stuck around and hung witht he coach as the kids finished. This is the part of my job I love.

Throwing footballs leads to marijuana use, and we all know where that leads!

It's human nature to forget where u have come from and backstab. It is that way here too to some extent.

You obviously don't understand the word "generally."
