Discount for Police
#41
Most agencies these days have strict policies regarding "discounts". Generally, it is understood to mean meals and drinks, but can be applied to other things. Concerning special pricing on POSE models (which I have taken advantage of)... I never asked for a discount and, as far as I know, the price is, or was, set by HD corporate. Should I have asked if I could please give them an additional $2,000.00?

Unless I have my facts wrong, it's the Cops who:
1. write speeding tickets
2. tell me I can't pass on the median or split traffic
3. hassle me about my loud pipes
4. enforce helmet laws
5. speed and run lights "in the line of duty"
Oh! They also enforce the laws that stop me from carrying. Nothing worse than a hypocrite who carries a gun for protection and then tells me I can't do the same.
Nah, they don't deserve a discount.

I'm gonna apologize in advance for making a negative comment on my first post, but I've gotta chime in here.
What you've said above is complete bullchit.
There can be no freedom without justice, and without laws and law enforcement, there can be no justice.
Think about it....or "ask Hamilton, Jefferson, and some of those guys."

I do not think either one of you guys have understood what I said. I do not believe you understand democracy at all, or the foundation of our nation. The reason for law enforcement. Lastly the way society interacts with government. As a point you can not have democracy without liberty, you cannot have liberty without some type of law enforcement to protect the rights of others, all of them are interdependent. To put this on a first grade level for you: Citizens of our nation regard liberty(rights) as a fundamental part of who they are. You as a police officer can only benefit from understanding how the other side is looking at you. When you fail to make the connection, you have failed to preform your duty. Thus, you consider everything as a us against you issue. I am not against you, I am not anti-police, I am anti-police state, that being said, most view cops as part of a police state, it is your job to show the opposite. As I said before by arguing the point proves you are unable to understand complex thought. Again, thank you for proving my point.

Last time I checked it's your legislature that drafts and passes those laws, not the police. The police just get the always criticized role of enforcement. Discount talk aside, your disgruntled attitude is misdirected.
They are also the one's your wife, daughter, or mother can call, when you are not available, if they hear a noise in the basement in the middle of the night.
When a Cop stops me and says "Hey man, love the pipes!" or "That's a fine looking pistol!"....then I'll say they deserve a discount.
