[QUOTE="RB II, post: 2850259, member: 124418"] I totally respect the very tough job that LEOs have to undertake. But the fact that this officer willingly wore that shirt is very worrisome to me. What other orders will he/they carry out? Confiscate all guns? No knock warrants? Traffic stops without truly having probably cause just because they are profiling? No refusal blood draws? The list goes on as far as questionable "orders given" in todays world. Any response that is based on "because it is a law" is missing my point. "Because it is a law" is exactly my point, some person in charge (like this sheriff that ordered these shirts) decided that was a good idea no matter the ramifications to right and good. Everyone has to accept "personal responsibility" for their actions, no matter if is carrying out "a legal order" or not. Lots of "legal orders" given and carried out under Hitlers reign. Didn't make it right then, won't make it right now. Not saying our nation is there now, but we are headed down a very slippery slope. The reality is that this officer had a choice, wear the shirt or not. He will have that same choice for all other "orders given". IMO, pretty clear which side of that answer this particular LEO would fall. Sorry, rant over. [/QUOTE]
