    Currently in the academy for the Birmingham PD, is it really worth it? I ask myself that every day as I wake up at the crack of dawn. There’s no respect for recruits, there have been 6 homicides over the weekend in the city. And half of the department is under the age of 30 and understaff over 300 officers. It was once a goal of mine but not really so much more. I’m currently at the half way point but I’m feeling a little discouraged. My life is worth much more than a paycheck and benefits; I want to live to see my children get grown and prosperous.

Yet there are those who never been in those situations, or worked those types of jobs constantly judging you. I don't blame teachers, police officers, or any civil servants for leaving.

      Traffic stops are crimes classified as infractions.
      More people die in preventable car crashes than are murdered. If cops are trying to keep people safe, they will enforce traffic laws. DUI’s account for a good about of homicides.
      Plus, you have no right to drive a car. No where in the constitution does it say you have a right to drive a car. And the Articles of Confederation were superseded by the U.S Constitution , so those are irrelevant.
      You may own a vehicle. But because driving is dangerous, you must be licensed to drive. The State can take away your license if you suck at driving.

    Some police officers let the power get to their head; they are actually criminals in uniforms. However, the majority of them who are quitting are actually great officers who don't see the need to do their job because of the uprising against police. I have been profiled and stopped many times for made up reasons and I've never had a criminal record; actually one of the crazy encounters was I've been pulled over twice in the same night going home from the gym. I don't want to play victim here but police harassment is real and I see why it's an issue in the black community.
