To the LEO on this forum: Quit
It is clear that people want to live in a lawless society. It is clear your leadership will buckle under the social justice mob. The nation doesn’t deserve protection anymore. While I dislike cops as I’ve been lied to, I still respect them. No human should have to deal with murders, rapes, dead children, domestic disputes and be expected to be perfect.
I thank all the LEOs here, but it’s clear that people don’t respect you all and it’s not worth risking your life for a nation of cowards.
Unbelievable they charged that cop in Atlanta with murder.

After a brief honeymoon period with my PD, I entered FTO and found that I was a REALLY bad fit for my department. After 4 months, I resigned as I was about to fail field training, and I went back to work at the jail. I was then miserable there as it was a shitty place to work and didn't pay enough for me to pay my bills, even with OT. After a year, I left and headed back to my hometown and took a job outside of LE while I applied for police jobs in the area where I grew up, hoping I'd get a second chance. Most of the departments turned me down because my first PD didn't work out and I finally gave up trying. I'm pursuing clinical social work and in the process of getting a MSW.
My FTO didn't like me, and no matter what I did, it was never good enough. The tension and him constantly telling me how worthless I was as both a cop and a human being killed my confidence. I finally got to a point where I could barely even drive because I was so nitpicked. I was in a depression for about a year afterwards and literally felt like anyone who ever loved me was wrong; I felt there was literally not one positive thing about my existence and I was undeserving of life.
I owe my FTO a 20 year old bottle of single malt. He probably saved my life.
I’m sorry to hear you had such a sh!tty experience. Your FTO also deserves a HARD kick to the balls.
You don’t denigrate people because they may not be cut out for the job.
