LEO and PROUD of it.......even if others aren't
I believe I see it more and more these days as well. However, I don't think it's a wariness of cops, per se, that I am seeing, but rather a wariness of the government in general.
The LAST thing I want to do is bring up politics. However, with the current administration's agenda, we are losing freedoms at a faster rate than ever before in American history. Thus, the fight has begun for the individual to try and retain as much of their freedoms as possible.
Unfortunately, since cops have direct contact with civilians, they receive the butt end of this indignance.
Well if using the current government administration is the excuse most people want to use for lashing out at cops it's a failed excuse. The vast majority of cops (I know of none that I work with) despise the current administration so lashing out at them serves no purpose. I think it's more plausible that people are using it as an excuse for some percived injustice they feel from some prior incident involving LEO.
