Joseph, I never said for anybody to worship LEO's. You should respect LEO's for doing a job that not just anybody can do. LEO's are not perfect, there are some bad apples in the barrel, just like in all other professions. Other than firefighters and military, I don't know of any other job where a complete stranger is willing to help another person in their time of need, up to and including the giving of his/her life.

You are correct about it not being a "great job" since the pay stinks, the public watches every move waiting for a slip up to pounce on. The hours suck, the "customers" like to fight, shoot, cut, spit on, barf on, pee in the cars or just plain attempt to hurt officers. It is a calling and either you have it or you don't.
