Here in the west we take one for the team all the time, but the team is the citizens I defend and protect and proudly answer to as their servant. You must play for some other team I haven't heard of.

BUT IT'S A JOB PERK

Cali also just passed a law that says if I commit a felony while wearing my badge I lose my pension. I think that is a great law, just want it to apply to politicians as well. And going to help someone is no excuse because us cops don't tend to be a bunch of help if we cream a minivan full of kids on the way.
