There was an article, produced by NBC News entitled “How this
police department is fighting for its officers’ mental health after suicides” which
focused on the Fairfax County Police department and police suicides in general.
That’s peachy
keen but the article completely failed to mention other research that showed
that police isn’t so much the cause of suicide as is the fact that our society
doesn’t vet the people we hire to do police work. In other words, these guys are
disturbed human being and would consider suicide if they were cops or plumbers
or lawyers.
Don’t think its
true?
Spend some time
with a Fairfax County Cop and then let me know what you think.
