    Nah they definitely take it all. Usually just parked out side a gated community taking a nap or “working” the sideline at a sporting event or any number of other bullshit like “helping” at the dui checkpoint in the middle of the night chilling in the big air conditioned trailer maybe also napping. My buddy is a statie in another state overtime is plentiful but not actual hard police work like overtime at your job is just more of your job. For police it’s just paid hang out

      Honestly, that wouldn’t even be so bad if the majority of them weren’t dicks.

      I totally agree that the current institutions that are US police forces are terrible at best, having a police force in general is needed. Unless you’re talking about anarchy which while interesting, is a completely different conversation.
