@@osvaldocruz6645idt majority of us understand what you’re trying to get across if not something negative. I know a 9 year old who’s been dead set on being a firefighter his whole life, should I tell him he’s too young ? I feel like he’d say “no shit”.
YO THAT WAS SUCH AN AWESOME DAY IN THE LIFE!!! 😂😂😂😂 EL MONTE HAS TO DEFINITELY DO MORE OF THESE AS IT REALLY HELPS THE COMMUNITY KNOW WHAT A TYPICAL DAY IS LIKE. Gotta say 100% a great 30 min video by far!!! And congrats to Officer Machado for letting us ride along with him!!!
It’s so rewarding to have a job where every day you make a huge difference Thank you for your service. In life we all need some danger and makes us feel alive Your work is appreciated! God protect you all
Thank you for sharing your Day In The Life Story with us Officer Machado. You seemed like you really enjoyed your job, and your community. My Nephew is also working in the Criminal Justice System working as a Deputy Sheriff for the Missouri Sheriff's Department. He also loves his job. I appreciate and admire the work that y'all do. Thank you for your Service, and God bless you Sir.
I was a copper in England for a few years after I came out of the Royal Marines then emigrated to Canada to be a cop there…I had some busy and challenging times…but now happily retired in Spain..thanks for the video!
I’m about to become a police officer, and as a jiu jitsu competitor it was a concern that I’d never have time to train again. But just seeing your wall of medals is reassuring.
Today is 12/26/23 and I am seeing this video & channel for the first time. I am so impressed with this man. Your home is a reflection of your character. We need more of these videos! Officer Machado, I will keep you in my prayers.
Very well spoken, great video. Whenever I see an officer in public or at work I make sure to give them my respects for all the amazing work they do keeping our communities safe.
Thank you so very much for your service as a Police Officer. May God always keep you safe and healthy where ever you go. Your hard work and dedication is outstanding 👍💪
@@helderyoung848 What about African Americans lol is it American African, Irish American? Its common practice to place ethnicity before nationality when addressing someone or ones self
Officer Sergio Machado Thank you for showing everyone about El Monte CA area.#1 Video is a hit need to do more. Hope to see you on the next one. Watching from Pacific Northwest Puyallup WA
More of these! I can watch this officer do his job in many more videos. Great cop. Being that I’m from southern commiefornia it’s good to see our officers out there doing a good job day in and day out. Stay safe and keep up the good work. As he showed it’s a team environment and takes a lot of people to make the machine work. I hope they make more. Great job El Monte 👊🏾🤘🏾
very cool channel, as ive been a police volunteer for over ten years now in to different ca police depts, as i really respect what these officers do daily, and thanks for your service sir!
As a former school bus monitor I know what it's like to have to do a quick bite to eat in between school bus routes. Thank you for your service to that community I've been considering a career in law enforcement but I'm not sure if certain health conditions would from applying to the Department
Great video. Thanks to the Officer for sharing his day. Just a quick recommendation for his weapon at the range. SIG recommends running a full size dust cover for the Spectre Comp slides. There should be a S, M, or L on the back strap of the grip so if it’s a M pickup a X-Series full medium grip frame. The Velocity magwell and the X300 will fit perfectly on that too. Great setup I ran something similar. The new 320 AXG Legion slide is pretty sick too!
This is really good. Please keep doing more of this series. It’s informational, gives accountability and hopefully helps some of these UA-cam LEO experts realize that they are full of more terrible info than they realize.
Cops have one of the safest jobs in America. The reason there are bad opinions are valid. This video shows us how much time cops waste on the taxpayers dime
@@chuckxu5910 wasn’t talking about crimes. Most infractions are monetary. Many precincts are meeting financial quotas. That’s like telling a single mom who just got laid off don’t be broke 🤷🏽♂️ funny thing is most people could be criminals if they were caught.

Can you do a video on report writing (example, situations when and when not to write a report) also, we need more patrol videos. This was awesome. Stay safe!
Thank you for the ride along. I hope people realize that even though today may have been a light day you are risking your life every day as all police officers do. Stay safe please!💙
Thank you Chief Fisher for allowing the world to see El Monte in action Officer Machado did an amazing job articulating the ride along.

Who cares what departments do a day in the life. They have quotas, they look for people to charge rather than to help. They write tickets. It’s statistically the safest job in America. Did you not see him drive around a parking lot and tow a car they weren’t even sure if it was stolen? So if someone was stuck and working on their engine now they are stuck with a thousand dollar tow bill?

Maybe not, bad but many turn a blind eye to misconduct and other criminal acts by cops. I honestly don't care for cops and the "real" change for me is when I see cops handcuffing other cops who commit crimes. And since that is 'highly improbable' I guess I will never be a "back the blue" zombie...

The officer mentioned being a trained first responder. Back when I was a park ranger for Federal Gov't years ago, all of us were trained first responders too. We operated on federal lands in remote areas, yet areas that had 1000s of people packed together in campgrounds and other facilities and there was a lot of alcohol and drugs being used as people recreated. We definitely had our share of medical issues and often an ambulance might be 30 mins or more to get there, so we had to know how to stabilize until advanced equipment and personnel could arrive. Although I had more trouble out of church groups than most of the partiers caused...lol
Thank you for your service to the military and the community of El Monte I served in the 25th infantry division in Vietnam…2/14th infantry golden dragons…
