By the way…this actually happened. A cop lost his shit and screamed “SHOTS FIRED!” when an acorn fell near him. He started shooting all over the place in a suberb which caused another cop nearby to also start shooting at nothing.
Why do we train our cops to be so terrified of everything?
I think it might be hiring. I’ve got a relative who was too paranoid and antsy for the post office, but he’s fit right in as a sheriff’s deputy. I’m glad he found a place to belong.

Does the sheriff’s office drop off recruiting pamphlets in the post office?
Like “Going postal? Apply to become a police officer today!”
postal workers are regularly in way more danger than any cop ever is.
I do believe that’s the joke…

by the way, cops need guns. They need to be trained better, but they still need guns.
Not assault rifles of grenade launchers full of tear gas, but just regular pistols
