Why doesn't anybody care when a police officer, say, saves a dog? Why doesn't anybody care when a police officer does his job well? Why doesn't anybody care when police officers help the people they protect? Why doesn't anybody care when the police protect people from gunmen in shootouts? The media, that's why. After Ferguson, all anybody cares about is bad cops, everyone seemingly forgot about every single good police officer in this whole damn country. Next time you're getting mugged, don't expect a cop to come and save you. Next time you're driving while drunk, don't expect a cop to pull you over before you kill somebody. Some of my friends work as police officers, and they are some of the kindest, most honest people I know. But a**holes like you only know of the bad ones, and that disappoints me, it truly does.

If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

Master Chief once said that a soldier "should never be rewarded for doing what is expected." Also, where'd you get the idea that no one appreciates good actions?
-
The guy who posts these things on the forums.

I think "a soldier" was part of the quote Lol

Yep. This.
-
Yup. This.

Bumped

Because that's their job and it shouldn't be out of the ordinary enough to give special props to.
-
So the why do you get promotions for working?
-
Probably for being reliable, and good at your job. But we don't see McDonald's employees getting in the news for getting promotions so your argument is invalid
-
Dude, thumbs up to you. You know whats up
-
Becuz dats der job
-
Because it's his job. What do you want a cookie for not punching a kid in the street or not -blam!- a teen?
-
I'd like a cookie
-
You can has one *gives cookie*
-
-
Because that's supposed to be their god damn job!
-
Well maybe if people focused on the police officers that do their "goddamned job" and not the ones that abuse their power, everybody would appreciate police more than they do.
-
Maybe, but it only takes a few bad ones to start a riot
-
Then who ends that riot? The good ones.

Edited by PVBeachin: 6/19/2015 4:54:39 PMA riot that negatively effects peoples lives and should have never began in the first place. Peoples lives could be ended or ruined by that riot. And if you say that they would be saving lives, they shouldn't have allowed lives to be put in danger in the first place
-
Maybe people shouldn't start violent riots that put them in danger to protest violence.
