Are most police officers conservative/Republican?

Question

Or is this just an assumption I am making?

Answer 1

people are just people-there are no guidelines for a police officers and their affiliation for politics or religion.

Answer 2

I don't know about most, but I would say the majority.

I think it has to do, generally, with the fact that people who become policemen are conservative law-and-order types, and the Republican party has tended to respect and revere law enforcement and the military more so than the Democrat party. At least historically.

Answer 3

Because they work for a living and most are union members most are democrats. That doesn't mean they're not often socially conservative they just know that Republican politicians would rather pay them $5.00 an hour, end their pensions and health care if they could get away with it.

Answer 4

I would say it depends on where the department is located. Overall, I would give it a 60/40, Conservative/Democrat.

Answer 5

Seeing as most police officers in the world live in China, I would say they are mostly likely to be communist.

Answer 6

Most white officers are, but times are changing, and their are a lot of Hispanic officers now.

Answer 7

Sounds very accurate considering Democrats are more likely to have disregard for Cops as well as calling Cops names like Pig.

Answer 8

Actually most I have known are moderate Democrats

Answer 9

no most of them are assho== and they think they can get away with breaking the law but watch the rest of us like German gestapo they drink and drive they speed park where they want to and if they get stopped they pull out there badge

Answer 10

yes but i don't know why
