Police Chief Mark Kessler,of Gilberton Borough, Pennsylvania, spoke briefly about current police academy training portrays citizens in general as criminals and threats to local law enforcement.
When I go through the police academy, they treat everyone that you come in contact with is a criminal. Everyone with a firearm is out to kill you. That's what they teach us at the academy. I have a real hard time swallowing that. That's why you have all these young police officers that graduate from these academies and they come out and they want to kick butt and take names, and ruin lives, over nonsense. They terrorize people over a turn signal, or having a brake light out. They want to search your car right away, they want to demonize the American people, the average citizen, the law-abiding citizen.
I have better things to do with my time than worry about somebody who has a broken tail light, that's nit-picking nonsense.
We need to educate our police officers a lot better. A lot better; what comes out of these academies is shameful, its really shameful.
Chief Kessler is perhaps best known for his advocacy of the 2nd Amendment Preservation Act, and promoting the Oathkeepers organization.
