Your opinions on certain drug laws seem to have you guys really confused about the elite of those who are sworn to enforce all the laws.

You don't think serving felony warrants is dangerous? You're high. Tell you what, since it's not dangerous, next time you can clear the building of threats, then I'll come in when you're done. Not dangerous, right? The fact that law enforcement gets shot all the time isn't relevant, they are cowards for wearing proper gear, right?

You think? Because you seem to agree with Thunderballs that SWAT work, going into bank robberies and serving felony warrants, is "the most cowardly line of work".

As a matter of fact, in some jurisdictions military experience is REQUIRED before you can even apply for SWAT training. LA used to be that way. Now in most places is not absolutely required, but strongly preferred that you're a soldier first, so you have a foundation on which to build a good SWAT officer.
When I hear you guys saying you think SWAT work isn't dangerous and that it's for cowards, my first thought is "you're high". Then I realize that whenever you think about any type of law enforcement, it's all about drugs to you. So it makes sense - you ARE high.
