For the better part of the last decade, nearly every waking hour of San Francisco Deputy Sheriff Barry Bloom’s life was spent on the clock.

Bloom, a public safety monitor at San Francisco City Hall, was on duty an average of 95 hours a week since 2016, and more than 100 hours a week over the last two fiscal years, according to city data. His workload of late leaves roughly 10 hours a day remaining for sleeping, eating and just about anything else not tied to his job as a sheriff’s deputy.

      Believe it or not, cops are public servants. They just seem to forget that fact.

        There’s a difference between theory and practice. In theory? Yes. In practice? No. In practice they’re a huge gang of armed racist thugs who are a burden on every governments budget.

          I think the reality somewhere between your view of them and they way they view themselves.
