    1. Do you not like the police or do you not like certain laws they have to enforce?

      Edit: Oi! Why do I get downvoted? It’s a serious question.
      Because if you have a problem with the police we have discussion about training, supervision, salary and equipment. If you have a problem with the law we have to talk about politics.

      Typically, the people who say “fuck the police” are below the average IQ. I know who I’d rather share a neighbourhood with.

    3. Okay, but I wouldn’t call firefighters “unsung heroes”. Just “heroes” seems sufficient, since m I’ve only seen people praising the fire dept

      Thw ifre department in Minnesota was aiding ice with apprehensions even gave em a lift with the ladder. Fuck the fire department

      When the fire department doesn’t do their job, there are no witnesses left behind

    6. Because the fire departments job is not to fight criminals which will be antagonised by that and then write songs about it, ffs…

    7. Remind me that In 9-1-1 (tv show), unless it’s Athena, her boss, and her one detective friend, every single named (living) cops is a bad guy.

      Meanwhile, except maybe that once, every firemen is a good guy. Even the asshole chief got a redemption arc eventually. Lol

    8. If people could follow rules and behave we wouldnt need the police to begin with. No, I’m not defending ICE or the “bad apples”, they can still suck a fat one.

    9. Because if you steal cars, or sell drugs, it’s not the fire department that will catch you. People don’t hate cops because they don’t do their jobs. Cops are hated because their job is to keep order.

      Sure, it doesn’t change the fact that cops often don’t do their jobs properly, but it’s not the main reason people hate them.

      The fire department doesn’t stop people from doing what they want.

      The entire job of the police department is preventing people from doing what they want.

      Even if cops were doing their job flawlessly, a lot of people would still hate them

      Because the fire department doesn’t make people face the consequences of their own actions, and people don’t like the consequences of their own actions.

      The problem is that a lot of us think that a cop’s job is to do what’s normally thought of as the right thing, but it’s plainly obvious that their real job is to do the wrong shit.

    13. Oh, I’ve heard people say things along the line of fuck the fire department. But it’s middle aged divorced women and they mean a different kind of fucking.

    14. We have people setting fire to the rain, so I think that is enough of a middle finger to the unsung heroes

    15. Think it’s more along the lines of the police as a concept is there to enforce the law, people are afraid of being found doing something wrong and develop a distaste of those enforcing.
      The fire service or ambulance are there to be called on when your in an emergency and are therefore much more widely accepted because there’s no negativity surrounding them.

    16. Well the people who sung fuck the police were usually doing drugs and didn’t want to get caught. Did you ever hear Madonna saying fuck the police or was it just 2pac and other similar artists?

      Theres plenty of grievances from people hating healthcare professionals. What’s his answer for that?

    18. See I disagree. People don’t like police besides the violence, the arrests, shootings, most people’s interactions with them are at horrible points in their lives, getting tickets, traffic accidents, hell maybe even court. So of course people will tie that to negative connotations. Firemen however go there and put out fires. They clearly only ever have positive connotations. The same logic applies to lawyers. Just my opinion.

    19. [Someone hasn’t heard of Crassus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Licinius_Crassus#Rise_to_power_and_wealth)

      >The first ever Roman fire brigade was created by Crassus. Fires were almost a daily occurrence in Rome, and Crassus took advantage of the fact that Rome had no fire department, by creating his own brigade—500 men strong—which rushed to burning buildings at the first cry of alarm. Upon arriving at the scene, however, the firefighters did nothing while Crassus offered to buy the burning building from the distressed property owner, at a miserable price. If the owner agreed to sell the property, his men would put out the fire; if the owner refused, then they would simply let the structure burn to the ground. After buying many properties this way, he rebuilt them, and often leased the properties to their original owners or new tenants.
