America is fucking weird man. Why would you thank cops for their service?

[–] SufniDroid 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They thank members of the armed forces (soldiers, sailors, aviators etc.) for their service and most people extend these for the police force as well.

Why? (For both parts of that statement)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because they have theoretically dangerous jobs, that Americans indoctrination teaches are necessary for the American way of life.

It's so stupid too. It's not like they were drafted. They signed up for it willingly. They're being compensated for it too, so it's not like they're volunteers either.

Because soldiers serve the country they are a citizen of.

That's still fucking weird.
