LAV is a class act. Well said.
Very well said indeed
Don’t worry, I hear OCP is going to be taking over several large city contracts.
The comments make my head hurt.
Jesus.
What Mr. Vickers said is much appreciated.
What LAV said is the way many of us feel. It’s a damn crying-ass shame that America’s executive branch doesn’t use its platform to spread the same message. Good for LAV for using his platform to spread truth and encouragement.
Well said.
:thank_you2:
Wow. For a permit.
Slightly related, my friend is a health inspector. They used to have badges, state seal with dept of health or whatever. One of his counterparts elsewhere in the state busts in a restaurant waving his badge saying he’s law enforcement and being beligerent. He no longer works for the state, and they no longer have badges, which makes my friends job a little more of a pain. Point is, there are crazy people out there.
On the flip side, I was wearing an NYPD shirt from a thrift shop at a liqueur store picking up some goods (in OH nonetheless). Some meth head kept calling me a “****ing pig” while I was checking out (crazy, stupid people). I didn’t know people were that stupid, and that full of blind hate. I can’t imagine having to deal with trash like that on a daily basis.
Once again LAV nails it. Too bad most peoe to hear it already know.
I love guys like you - sponsors and supportive companies pay damn good money to put stuff online for people to watch for FREE and they complain about it. If it bothers you do me a favor and don’t watch any of my stuff anymore
And get an economics lesson in the meantime so you can understand how the world works
Jesus…
I appreciate the message Larry. It is very frustrating when people paint with such a broad brush. I took a look at CCW and plan to join. I was not aware of this product. There is nothing wrong with sharing a message and attaching a product promotion to it. I mean seriously that is a huge part of this website. It is also good business. Thanks.
CCW-Safe is essentially a great way to add an extra layer of cover your own ass. It didn’t come off as endorsed BS either, it came off as genuine. I think it’s silly to single that out, because it means you probably missed the importance of the overall message HK.
Mr Vickers thank you for posting that video. No matter what they do it will always be analized in a negative light couldn’t be more true. I find it facinating everyone is a police expert in telling me how to do my job. No one tells constantly tells the doctor or the cashier or the pilot how to do their job.
Remember the hero is the guy that does the right thing at the right time. I see from the comments posted below the video the rest of us are just bad cops. Any I saw one post about cops being better in the 70’s, they use to issue slap jacks back then too. Those solved a lot of problems with no report taken. David
If you feel a need to complain about law enforcement, who is/isn’t a “civilian”, etc find a different thread
Very appreciative of the kind words from Mr. Vickers. With social media, and the media at large, you usually only hear the loudest folks out there. The media portrays the loudest, as if their opinions are shared by the majority of the public. I have to say, since the Ferguson incident, which seems to have been the tipping point, I’ve heard from the general public more than ever. People pull up to me all of the time saying how much they appreciate the work we do, and how difficult of a job it must be right now. I’ve been doing this for over 16 years, and I don’t ever remember people saying these things. It helps to keep things in perspective.
