WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO BE A COP THESE DAYS?

One of these days we are going to wake up and there will not be a police force in any town. Why would someone want to be a cop in the current environment. They are damned if they do and damned if they don't. Look what happened in Baltimore. One guy gets killed but no one still know for sure if it was because of something that happened earlier or was it the police van ride. So they charge 7 officers with murder. Then suddenly the murder rate in Baltimore goes up and city officials wonder why? The cops have backed off in face of being tried for murder for doing their jobs. Yes bad things happen and some times someone dies that shouldn't have. But not every white officer shooting of a black teenage criminal needs to have the local riot and charging the officer with murder. Heck there are black officers shooting black men. White officers shooting white teens and men. Unless you are faced with the exact situation you don't know what happened. Even cameras will give you only part of the situation. If you don't want to get arrested or shot then don't be a criminal or pay attention when officers give you an order. If you are stupid and reach for something in your pocket how do they know it is not a gun? If you run from the police you probably did something wrong. Society has got to get a handle on this.
