      @@chuckiepeoples hate to break it to you but that is completely false, cops save many many lives throughout the country on a daily basis, you can see new videos arising every day of a police officer somewhere in the country saving a persons life, all you have to do is search. those kinds of videos do not gain the kind of popularity as when the public makes a video where they believe an officer is in the wrong. although i highly agree that there will always be bad officers out there and they deserve to be fired no matter what, believe it or not, when it comes to viral videos when the public is heavily convinced the cops in the wrong in certain situations, i find way more where i can prove the officer's right than the ones I've seen where the officer's actually wrong, because most officer's who are actually wrong know they are wrong and will resign because of it.

      Sadly the hiring requirements have been lowered to get folks hired. So the quality may go down. Plus its a calling ,that not all are called to do. Plus like in my area,a field training officer back in the 90s was telling me to much NWO garbage in the Academy. So who knows. The good cops ,like buckshot are the norm. But the news media only shows the cops accused of doing wrong. And those cops are in the minority. But if the news only hypes them up,folks will think its normal.

    I believe had he stayed on he would still be alive. People would be surprised how our mind works. When we have nothing to strive for, everything starts winding down. And law enforcement was his passion. It kept him going even through illnesses I'm sure he had. No one drives in their 90s anymore. That is very rare. But I'm sure God will use him in whatever capacity he deems. Godspeed Buckshot.
