How to spot a tweaker in 2 seconds.
Also how you may die suddenly and unexpectedly but the world just keeps on moving all the same.
There’s people doing shady shit everywhere… it’s weird looking back at my childhood and really thinking about the people I was around growing up and situations I was in.
Literally expect anything to happen at anytime, cause if it can, it just might.
You cant just die in peace. A report must be done. Photos might be taken. Someone has to deem the death not a murder.
I’d say the craziest thing is the reality that hard times or addiction can happen to anyone. I’ve come across so many kids of cops who are hooked on whatever.
At the end of the day we are all people and one decision can completely change the course of your life. It happens to cops on duty too when they follow that sweet voice in the night to dispatch and donate their pension.
That you can’t explain things like that
Hoarders are among us.
Many people are dying alone.
Domestic disputes are open to interpretation.
Not all protective orders are issued/modified properly.
Criminal acts are under reported.
Civil issues are highly reported.
Someone you know sees police more than they see you.
Most civilians are not confrontational.
Most confrontations are from miscommunication.
You can trust an officer with your life, but not with your wife.
Just a few I can think of
