“Fire Fighters are seen as heroes, you hear the siren and you pull over even when you don’t see them. When you are at your worst they are your heroes. That’s how policing needs to be. They are supposed to be your hero. You shouldn’t panic if you’re pulled over. If someone calls for help, you shouldn’t have to worry that an officer will use your outfit or your skin color to judge your innocence.People don’t want to feel surveilled. If IFD showed up and a hose didn’t work they would be fired. Yet, an officer can have dozens of complaints, excessive force, harassment and yet they are defended and protected. Policing should be respected and serve the public like we respect fire fighters. What ever we do to move forward we must aim for this level of service.”
