pretty good article on police operator syndrome

[VeedUp]

An article that I read on facebook earlier, I asked couple of LEO's what they thought on FB, so I thought I would post it here.

I was a policeman for 28 years and thought an operator was the person back at the office that answered the radio. I have never heard a policeman calling himself an operator.

lmao, never seen a leo with a shemagh thankfully

I have one, but never wore it. My son brought it back from Afghanistan. Hope that doesn't make me an operator.

I may know a guy or two who fit that description.

Enjoyed the article VU.

I think I bought an upper and lower from the author on GB. I mean how many Christopher Hernandez's can there be in Texas, right.

That's an unfortunate abbreviation.

For every police-operator there is 1,000 civilian-wannabe-operator. They are all douchbags.

Every single one of my guns is in a safe right now. I guess I'm going to die. Can I borrow someone's bullet proof vest?

The jury's still out

"Firefighters are strange guys who nobody understands, but they probably don’t like getting shot either."

My favorite line from the article.

Thought some of you all would get a kick out of that.

Sammy made the best comment.

"The only cops I see getting criticized are the dog killing, no knocking *operators* that shoot unarmed homeless people sleeping in the foothills of Albuquerque or residents of the house that is mistakenly *swatted*. I love my local beat cops and there is little I would not do for them. They take the time to talk with us and hang out from time to time. I consider them family. But then again, they are throwback peace officers, not arrogant bullies with badges."

I don't care if they drive MRAPS. They can be disabled easily.

The civilian douche operators have have no authority over you. Irrelevant
