This is from a news story but not sure where to post it because of the phychology factors surrounding it, So what is your "philosophy" about these events.
The numbers (stats) for police officers taking their own life has shot up during the past couple of years. When the departments found out that a few hundred policemen committed suicide during the past year they became alarmed and now want to train supervisors how to look for "signs" so that intervention can be employed. Why is this happening we ask, and the experts claim it is due to "all the stress".
Now this reminds me that the military has the same problem, and they are also doing activites simular to a policeman, using aggressive force to sudue insurgants and criminals.
Any comments?

I think the problem is clear, and that the problem is the lines which define right and wrong, legal and illegal, moral and immoral being clouded with hypocritical governement, laws and justice system. A constant nagging question of complicity for that which they despise, as rights and innocence protectors.
We put far too much stress on law officers, by passing laws that law officers have trouble enforcing due to conscience, and moral guidance based on their individual beliefs.
We are asking law enforcement, and government, to step too far in past the reasonable bounds of government and law into family and individual choices and rights, which casues an internal moral/ideological dilemma, which is often perceived and characterized as "treasonous" amongst those who reside above them in the chain of legal authority.
Much like the combat soldier suicides going up in this war, so has our LEO rates with increases in enforcing the laws related to the Drug War, and ever increasing "no-knock warrants" that place LEO's directly and literally in the firing line between private citizens, and bad law creation that negates the basic individual rights our system is founded on.
We are witnessing the socialist agenda perverting the meaning of law, democracy taking hold over individual rights, meant to be
unalienable by law.
Americas time to wake up and understand the value of their liberty before losing it, is dwindling. Once that happens, history has shown the fight to get it back once removed is much harder than the fight that must take place to preserve it, once established.........
Its time to ask where our guidance has gone, individually, and make a choice to do that which is within our power to preserve and protect that individual liberty while it is still within our means to save.
That's my opinion.
The law has lost respect in the eyes of the majority, due to hypocritical stances taken in adopted law as compared to the Constitution, which is "The Law of the Land".
Those being asked to enforce it both domesticly, and internationally, are having major problems dealing with that pressure, or even deciding if they "are doing the right thing".
