They are not your friends.
I was taught at a young age that if you get in trouble or see something bad you go to the cops. Learned the hard way thats just propaganda
Oh and the embassy if you get in trouble overseas. Also propaganda. Most times they wont even let you in the door.

Yeah, max too.
But back in the late 50s early 60s the cops were different.
At least once a fortnight, a couple of cops used to "walk the beat" around our suburb "Marrickville"
They just wandered around saying hello to residents and kids alike.
They were not to be feared and a quiet word woukd see troublemakers "spoken to".
In them days cops were there to protect and enforce the law.
Now, cops are nothing but an additional revenue arm of the grubberment.
Just think about it.
How often do you see police walking the beat?
How often has a cop said hello?
What is your first thought when you see a cop?
Most of us, the vast majority, have only ever seen cops when they are raising revenue.
They are officious, not allowed to be pleasant, they simply churn out fines for pathetically minor traffic infringements.
Few cops could take on a big bloke.
Cops used to have to pass a stringent fitness and height requirement.
Now cops are short, and tiny shelas.
A big bloke like me would have little trouble walking over them, if it weren't for the guns.
I can hardly wait for the LGBTIQSELFISH to get their gums around the police force.
Pink uniforms, prancing cops, drag queen highway patrol ( most of them are gay anyway)
I will be incapable of answering any questions for laughing so hard at them.
Please, bring it on.
