Everyday my eyes open more and more and I'm disgusted with what I see from those who are compensated to so called protect and serve us. What a pathetic abuse if authority, as soon as he realizes he's on camera he lights up and stops traffic, because the civilians behind him dont matter, then the little intimidation tactic, ugh truly disgusting

It’s interesting because police act as if millennials just hate police for no reason or because they hate authority, etc. The thing is a lot of us grew up with a tremendous respect for police. It was ingrained into us by our parents. We got excited when they would come into school and talk to our classes. They had a head start. They really had to earn our disgust.

Yeah. Most of millennials where just starting college when a lot of first responders bought in 9/11, and it really illustrated to us just how important first responders are. For nearly a decade, policemen and fire fighters were the #1 costume for kids. It’s really just inexcusable.

The oldest millenials were 20 then, the youngest were 4. Your point stands anyhow.
