Drama... I don't need it!
Don't get me wrong. I understand Brian's concerns about my career, and occasionally I do give it a second thought myself. But, really, it's not as bad as some people make it out to be, and he of all people should know that.
Still, we lost two of our guys in traffic accidents on July 29, and last week the Police Commission reported that attacks on LAPD officers were up 39% this year. The Protective League says the community and the media should make more out of this stats and show more support for us guys.
Like that will ever happen. It's much more popular to paint LA cops as brutal or corrupt or lazy. You just have to learn to ignore it and do your job.
I've learned to be good at ignoring bullshit. But I have to remind myself that the concern my family shows for me is not part of that. It's one of the things that keeps me safe and happy... not just more drama.
