Do you think you have a higher chance of being shot in the face in a kindergarten or at high school?
When you frame the question like you did then yes you are more likely to be shot in the face 2am in a dark ally known locally as dead crack whore lane?
How about my question?

A High School.
Do you understand why I asked my question or framed it that way?

Cops would rather the other guy be dead. They do that job all day long. They wouldnt live long in it if they gave everyone who had what looks like a gun the benefit of the doubt.
In a middle school hallway in the middle of the day - I don't think most cops consider that the dark and dangerous part of their job.
Dark alley, bank robbery, high speed chases, domestic abuse.... yeah you got a point.
Your question (in my frame of context) would equal the cop having pretty good odds giving a kindergartener the benefit of the doubt than he would someone at a high school. There is an escalation here, a scale of difference.
As a cop you have pretty good odds of coming out of a middle school alive no matter how much benefit or doubt than you do a dark crack whole ally at 2am...
Think people, Think...

What does that have to do with anything? Seriously, just step back for a moment and think about what you wrote.
What, do schools scare you, do you consider them life threatening? Do you think you have a higher chance of being shot in the face in a middle school or at 2am in a dark ally known locally as dead crack whore lane?
I end my conversation with you at that point.

I do. To get the answer you wanted. Thats why people frame the questions how they do.
Cops should be on their toes no matter where they are. Whether is 2am in a dark ally known locally as dead crack whore lane or kindergarten.

You are 100% correct - they should be on their toes. Do you know what it means to be on your toes? It means being situationally aware.
If you are situationally aware you would understand you have a lot more leeway to give benefit of doubt to a middle schooler than you do to a serial killer in a dark alley...
Why are some of you so quick to want to kill children?

Me being a dick?
Do you not understand that I was saying that in response to what Bonk said? And then you get all in a hissy, take what I said out of context and then try to berate me for it???
WTF?

i havent met one
and ive met a ton of cops on both sides of the fence.
If you've met "from both sides of the fence" that would suggest good and bad. I would wonder what the "good" cops did to earn the title of "good" if they weren't professionals who had the rights of the citizen at the front of their mind.
I will tell you from personal experience that there ARE cops out there that are mean, vindictive and unprofessional. There are also a lot of good cops.
That being said, a person who obeys the law and doesn't act like cops are left overs from the Gestapo usually don't have such negative experiences with them.
Maybe you just don't like the idea of having to follow rules or something?
ironic the cop he decides is decent is the one who didn't do his job and arrest his stupid ass like he should have.
i used to know a guy like you.
he was an ex navy seal.
every so often he would apply to be a cop and get shot down as soon as he started asking about their guns and when he gets one.
some people just dont understand justice.
this is america, not nazi germany.
there is no iron rule of law here. we rule with compassion and equality for all.
its people like you who shouldnt be allowed to vote. you should be rounded up and treated the way you expect cops to treat other people.
seriously.
What planet are you living on? What does some psycho you know/knew have to do anything with justice or what I've said? None of this applies to me, fwiw.
I can tell by your ranting that you've had some negative experiences with the po-po or someone else around you has. I'm also going to go out on a limb and guess that by your insane attitude most of the problems you encounter in life (police or not) are your own doing.*
Grow up, son.
*this applies to most folks when it's a non-disease/accident situation it seems.
