I agree totally two-70. But for the time being ( 18 more years god willing

)I'm still involved.
But we as officers spend alot of time learning to survive a deadly force encounter, and although it's sad to say sometimes we survive only to be ruined by the aftermath (civil if not legal). Not to mention this day and age every move you make , decisions that are made in fractions of seconds. The lawyers and the media spend months, if not years picking apart. It makes many people who got into law enforcement " to make a difference" realize it may not be worth it. We are already seeing critical shortages of LEO's across the country. And it's only going to get worse.
I know the last thing i want is anything to do with a deadly force situation , not to say I'll avoid them cause i won't ,but i say a little prayer everyday. Anyway with k9 we really can't avoid them we follow the dog.
