They’ve been dealing with symptoms for decades,” Meuser said. The officers’ stress reached a tipping point when protesters breached the Third Police Precinct building and set it ablaze at the end of May. " |

Every one of them, to a man and woman, said ‘I never thought I would be leaving this way,’” the attorney added. |

Quoting: Half Past Midnight The attorney who handles disability claims for the Minneapolis police, Ron Meuser, told FOX 9 that 75 officers are already under doctors’ orders not to return to work and are being treated for symptoms consistent with PTSD. [link to www.rt.com (secure)] Not medically diagnosed with, but "consistent with". F#ck them and every single person who pussy whines about believing they have PTSD. If you aren't experiencing uncontrollable TERROR not fear but f-ing TERROR, then you don't know PTSD. If you aren't awoken every night a 3 AM from night terrors, you don't know PTSD. If you don't wake up each morning FROM hyperventilation because your cortisol has far overshot, then you don't know PTSD. If you haven't experienced what you KNOW is irrational terror in your own home pushing you to hide in a corner or closet in search for the slightest feeling of safety, then you don't know PTSD. If you haven't experienced agoraphobia while you were once an outgoing, successfully productive individual, you don't know PTSD. If you don't have what might be considered irrational triggers that induce full-on panic attacks, you don't know PTSD. And guess what? All these symptoms are of PTSD resulting after a physical attack...not war or battlefield or the horrific experiences lived by LE and other first responders. Fuck these fake 'consistent with the symptoms but not diagnosed' cops. Pansy asses. . |

Quoting: R&y Cops and firemen have been doing this for fifty years. It's this bullshit that really pisses me off because it weakens the cases for, and harms the perceptions of, those who really do have PTSD and all who really are disabled. . |

They can't do their job anymore after some giving decades of services, ie. actually stopping crime, so I say more power to them and their fake PTSD. Its more of a liberal type of move but wth, they got fucked over by BLMs white masters. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77703728 They are giving a big fuck you to a broken system in which they participated and they helped perpetuate. As long as they had authority, they could do as they please inclusive of violating the rights of others and serving as judge and jury, which was not their jobs. They were fine with that. If any of them were "good cops" who stood next to and silently watched their bad cop "brethren", they were complicit and, in my book, even worse offenders. Now, they want to cry foul and fake illness for $$. By the bye, I am not part of and do not support the terrorist group BLM or ANTIFA or the traitors on the left. But as an a-political with right leaning, paleo-conservative values of Liberty, and a law abiding citizen who has twice had my rights stripped from me from corrupt cops and a broken Judical system that now operates like the mafia, I am the first to the table to work towards draining the swamp and complete reform. This system is broken and there is not one citizen who is safe or protected under the laws of our land. Not one and it has fuck all to do with race. These cops were part of the system now they want to whine and cry. I have no sympathy or compassion and not one fuck to give for them. . |

The city should be held accountable in as many ways as possible for allowing the riots to persist and allowing officers to be put on trial for a drug addict dying of an overdose. I hope every one of these officers never has to work again a day in their lives. |
