Police officer doesn't even make the top 10.
Bob's job, as a roofer, does.

Hope this is a reminder of what some folks do to keep some of you safe so you can sit comfortably in your homes and hate them for it.

What an incredibly ignorant statement.
I tease you and even provoke you on occasion but I can never recall you posting such complete trash.
There is no excuse for this kind of stupidity to be spread.
I am seriously disappointed in you.

You don't understand anything, do you?

Sure. You're saying that the absolute myopic focus in the vast minority of police interactions that result in violence, and particularly the rush to falsely accuse a particular officer in MO, gives some among us another excuse to bleat about "injustice". You're then suggesting that such bleating may cause some extreme assholes to act out against the police.
I agree with you.

If you're "seriously disappointed" with me then I guess I said something accurate.
