    I spent almost 20 years as a Texas peace officer. In that time I've seen the best and worst of law enforcement. I've also seen the best and worst of society. Imagine you go to work at your job and every person you interact with despises you doesn't trust you doesn't want to talk to you or is having their very worst day. Add on top of that that every single vehicle you stop and every interaction you make could in your life or simply because of the uniform you wear someone can take a shot and kill you with a rifle. Have I known bad cops absolutely have I arrested bad cops you're damn right I have in their uniform too. Did it bother me to do it absolutely not. Have I got police officers fired your damn right I have. I've also gone into burning apartment complexes to get little children out black white and Mexican. I've also burst four children into this world in my bare hands on the side of the road two of them were Brown. Each one of them was just a special as the miracle of birth and the child is regardless of color of skin.
    you see.
    We don't have a police problem in this country. What we have is an epidemic of broken homes where children are not disciplined or told no in the first time they are is usually by police officer. When this happens just like a toddler throwing a temper tantrum a teenager or young person throws a temper tantrum but they do it with a weapon and it cost them their lives. Or they try to find a police officer and they get what fighting a law enforcement officer get you your ass kicked and a trip to jail. The real problem here is we're making excuses in this society rather than making adults. I spoke with a veteran one time who said something to me that was quite profound he said just like West Germany and South Vietnam the America I was born into the longer exist. The America where doing right is the right thing to do and doing wrong is to be punished and corrected. The America where you don't get a participation trophy because the best thing to teach you is the better pill of being beaten or losing. I've arrested every race there is on this planet at one time or another. I have used force nd deadly force in the line of duty. But I've arrested way more white people than I ever arrested black or brown people. 99.9% of law enforcement that you meet see or observe in your rearview mirror ever every one of those 99.9% with bad to protect your life so think about that the next time you get stopped for doing something you shouldn't be doing like speeding have a little respect so bad the officer can give back to you the same level of respect!

    Don’t Judge On What You Are, Judge On Who You Are. Good and Bad in all, it’s YOU who determines what it is...how can you rebuttal what was just said? That’s not an opinion, that’s not the whole trend of “facts, facts, facts” yada yada. That’s called REALITY. The whole concept of EQUALITY is you take the good and the bad, not just only good. KKK hate black people, hate Latino people, etc. but what if one saves your life? Saves your child’s life? Etc. What if you a Black Panther who hate white people but now what if a white person saves your life? Saves your child? Etc. You’re atheist and hate religious people but now what if a Christian, Catholic, etc. saves your life? Saves your child’s? Now what you gotta say. You hate gay people but now what if a gay man saves your life? Saves your child’s life? Now what. Equality remember, gay people I ain’t for it but I ain’t against but it the same with y’all, y’all be saying “oh cuz I’m gay?!?” even if it had nothing to do with it so the point is same thing if a straight person saves your life? Your child’s life now what? Religious same with you don’t use the whole “ I believe in God” as an excuse to do certain thing those same questions are for you too...this is a constant repeating of the same question but to different categories. Some thinking “you just said that, what’s the point?!”. The problem is you still don’t get it. Same with cops there’s good cops and there’s bad cops. You got black people who are totally against BlackLivesMatter a hood, dark skin black dude from Chicago said this, “fo what?!? Nigga we kill each other every day! I’m from Chicago but y’all in Milwaukee the exact same I be seeing on Fox 6, TMJ 4 and other news bout lil kids getting killed in drive byes! 13yr old boy shot on 13th and Burleigh, 7yr old girl shot on 76th and Camelot. Same wit y’all Latinos 7yr old girl shot on 11th and National, 5yr old boy shot on 11th and National and 16yr old girl shot on 23rd and Lapham. Man I done got pulled over for whatever reason but the point is I cooperated completely even made the cop laugh a white cop laugh! That’s a myth what be being said this ain’t the fuckin 60’s! He let me off wit a warning no ticket! I go for all people and I believe AllLivesMatter plus peeps don’t know and media and news what manipulates you mo white people get killed by cops that us black and Latinos combined! So fuck BlackLivesMatter!”...that some real shit whether you believe me or not I worked wit him at Amazon. We have the same mindset and the point is, Martin Luther King Jr. fought for black people and other races, he ain’t fight fo niggaz. I told him that and he said you damn right! May he R.I.P as well but now Malcom X know because in beginning he only fought for blacks and FO NIGGAZ! That’s the problem, it was more of a agree to disagree but why you think him and Martin Luther King we’re exactly on the same page?? If Civil War happens again it’s not based off race, it’s based of Rich vs. Poor. Sorry black brotha and sistas but a lot of you are rich asf and a lot of white people, etc. poor. I love sports but you get over $100,000,000 just to touch a ball?!? And you don’t even start! Lmao the world is coming to an end, problem is it’s the Beginning of thee End #GodBless 🙏🏽 #AllLivesMatter ✊🏽✊🏻✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾
