Hey, he has to spend lots of time harassing poors and minorities. It's not nothing.
Is this an american joke?
Police here works really hard and have very interdisciplinary duties, be it medical situation assistance, witnessing or making actions official so they can be performed (e.g. entering housings where injured people are suspected)
The American cop's uniform might be a clue...
It's only partly American. There are basic failures in police systems and departments all around the world. Although it's theoretically possible that your country got it right when so many others have failed, it's interesting to note that you didn't actually say what country you were praising.
If you feel confident, name the country and open up the door to other commenters who also live or have lived there to chime in with their opinion. I've lived in several countries in my life, and I've seen a fair amount of incompetent or bad policing in most of them. Of course the details vary by place.
No policing system is perfect, but there's a holy trinity of tribalism, hero-worship, and opaque processes that make US police exceptionally unaccountable compared to most developed countries. And some newly developed countries, for that matter.
He'd love to see social workers do nothing, then he'd still have his kids.
To be fair, the social worker is probably too poor to afford most street drugs and too busy to have time to plant the unaffordable street drugs on other people in order to ruin their lives.
Married a social worker, can confirm
Whatever makes sense.
If I was covering up a crime and I had a choice between the two, I'd take the cop any day.
