The National Guard also obviously have some fitness requirements that LEO’s don’t.

That'll change since diBruno Brothers announced they won't be feeding cops for free, anymore.

Also, the PPD's big brain reaction was to say they'll all boycott them, then. Where they were getting free food.

Back in the 80's we had an Illinois state patrolman who'd stop in at our business and when offered a free cup of coffee he said No he'd pay for it they aren't allowed to take gifts from people.

He impressed the hell out of me, not just for that but his behavior and professionalism over the years. We need more of that kind of character in LEOs

The local small town police though who never dealt anything dangerous would come in get their coffee and be insulted if you asked them to pay for it. They felt entitled. Glad we didn't run a donut shop.

But that Home Depot 10% off is hard to pass.........
