National Surveys about the Police

[Unregistered]

Most of us would agree that attitudes towards the police have changed since 911, or have they? The latest national survey shows 80% of whites have a favorable view of the police. 65% of blacks have a favorable view of the police. Under Obama, a political narrative was gleaned highlighting a handful of cases and extensively covered by a media driven agenda is to blame. Activists mostly organized, create the illusion that police throughout the Country is out of control. The truth is blacks that live in these war zones want more police in their neighborhoods. Black politicians only come out on media driven highlighted incidents, but fail to say a word about the street hoods that are committing most of this black on black violence. The latest example of a black politician highlighting a problem where there isn't one, "Uncle Tom" Street, named after a real Uncle to the street resident. The media covered this story. The black politician says this is perceived by blacks a derogatory thing. The real insult here, with so many problems occurring in these black neighborhoods, this is how he chooses to spend his time.

Who cares ???
I care damnit. And I appreciate the original poster for having the balls to post a opinion.
To many cops have been crucified this year for posting their opinions on social media.
Posting your opinion is a Necessary antidote to the poison of political correctness that is destroying western society's immune system and making us weaker.

O,
One more thing.
Black Lives Matter are Thugs.

I can say without doubt, the average black,white, or other police officer has done more to help people in these minority communities than any of its elected black leaders. There are hundreds of victims of black on black crime that get totally ignored and have no voice. We miss a great opportunity to use the stories of these victims to counter this fake, agenda driven political narrative. The good people in these communities want these thugs, drug dealers, out of their neighborhoods.

It would be nice if all of the police unions across the country that have no problem collecting our dues every payday took out a one minute ad on Super Bowl Sunday and promote the brave and selfless acts that police officers do everyday for the citizens of this great nation. I am sure that they could find a large group of people from all walks of life that have very positive things to say about this nations police officers.

I think the point the OP is trying to make is law enforcement isn't loathed but appreciated by the overwhelmingly majorities of people, regardless of race. Sure we make mistakes, but the vast majority of the media highlighted cases involve some form of resisting or failing to follow orders in tense situations. The stats just don't back up the BLM and other activist narrative which has been supported by a agenda driven media.
