#146 Blake Cook - America's Scapegoats: The 365-Day Service That Never Stops

It's the highlight of my life. I was in it, man. I was in it. I didn't get the opportunity to go SF. And here I am in this specialized unit that is just big boy rules. Something I always wanted was, and we were killing it. And man, she gave me my paperwork and I went back to the department. They're like, oh, where'd you go? I was like, hey, I'm out. I'm not doing this no more.

Their mouths all dropped down. I'm like, y'all fucking did this to me. I love this job. I'd have died for any of y'all. I love this job more than everybody in this building. And you stole my passion from me because you failed to be a good leader. James Nolet stole the passion of law enforcement out of me, sucked it out of me because he thought that was gonna help him be promoted.

Stole it from me, man. I love law enforcement. That's why I love working at Blueberry. I love what I do now. We give so much to the community, to law enforcement. All of our training courses are incredible because we're passionate about what we do. I've had somebody ask me, Blake, why do you still give back to the community? You're completely screwed over because I love you.

And I love everybody that wakes up every morning and puts a badge on. And I'll say this, think about it like this. All the tier one guys, all the specialized military units, they go do the most dangerous jobs in the world, the most secretest, dangerous jobs in the world. But the difference, they get to get on an airplane and come back to the United States of America.

Police officers are deployed 365 days a year, seven days a week, in a city that they have to work in. You want to talk about paranoia? I can't even go to Best Buy with my son without being bumped into somebody that I arrested for a drug charge. And I don't know if he's going to kill me right here or right now. That's paranoia. Law enforcement take their life, I believe, because of paranoia.

185 law enforcement officers killed themselves in 2023. 136 died in the line of duty. Why are we having more officers dying by self-inflicted gunshot wounds than they are fighting crime? It's because the leadership is pushing us to the point where we would rather kill ourselves than have to see your fucking face in the morning. That's the problem. and it needs to be addressed nationwide.

The DOJ needs to do something about it. Somebody needs to do something. It's getting out of control and bad leaders need to be held accountable. They need to be fired. Man, I'm passionate about this because I feel sorry for them because there are some good ass cops out there, man, that are still believing the right, still doing the right thing. But when the time comes,

and there's a little hiccup in what they're doing, they're thrown to the wolves, and their families have to suffer because it comes out of a paycheck. That's bullshit. If you get an officer-involved shooting, they put your ass in a closet. Whether you're good or not, if it's a good shooting, they put your ass in a closet, get you a new gun, and they make you watch body camera footage.
