    Dog Shot By Officer

    It was especially sad when he said 'So, you're saying you want me to kill your dog'. That really pissed me off. I would have taken an assaulting an officer charge & smacked the sweat off his face. Poor puppy.

    Who indeed?

    It's always been a tough job. The issue is that cameras are everywhere now. When CCTV was first installed the videos flooded all media. It's the same with these body cams & with people & their cell phone. However, in the states there are more videos involving shootings which makes it a number...

    How did you eat your last potato?

    I had broasted potatoes a few days ago. That was the last time I had any potato. Unless, that is, you count sweet potatoes. Which I had this morning.

    What can I do to be safe while running or walking outside?

    It's in the 'Here you go!' text. Just hover over it.

    Almost 8x The Legal Limit, Driving While Intoxicated

    Honestly, this is the kind of article that I see this guy framing. 'He should have been dead' 'He should have been passed out at least' "Yea, you guys see that? I'll drink any of you under the table!"

    Dog Shot By Officer

    I know we are seeing a lot of these police officer videos thanks to the body cameras but this one really cheesed me off. He jumps the fence & goes onto property that he clearly should not have & ends up shooting a dog protecting their property. Frustrating...

    High Speed Chases

    We're getting closer & closer to the place where our cars are no longer really in our control. There will be a time period, clearly later in life, where you will be disabled by your OnStar every time. No chase & no death needed.

    Don't Bring a Bat To A Gun Fight.

    I read the title of this...pictured Joker saying it... & just thought:

    How to spot an undercover cop car?

    lol Aww, this question made me chuckle. I suppose first & foremost it depends on where you live. I've always been able to figure out what car is (as we refer to them here) a 'narco' & which is not: Look at who is in the vehicle. You should instantly become aware.

    Don't Mess With Granny

    I have a feeling this wasn't her first rodeo. Glad things worked out the way they did for both parties here. It could have gone all wrong in either direction if both were not as present as it seems they were.

    Do people join the police for the benefits?

    In the states unions are falling to the wayside here. Politically they've become hot button issues that politicians don't want to directly associate with for fear of ostracizing any voters. Democrats used to be the only party to even speak the name 'union'. Now, not so much.

    Robot Buys Drugs With Bitcoins, Arrested By Cops

    I've always maintained the future of drug dealing will move more & more towards online transactions. It's every street drug dealers dream to remain anonymous while raking in the dough. The Silk Road was a great example of this.

    Police Blitzes

    This happens so often where I am that it's really just another day another crime. I suppose that's a positive thing. I know further south in town they don't bother to show up for most situations. I suppose it's a glass half empty (crime being a regular occurrence) glass half full (police show...

    Have Wondered If . . .

    Given the heavy coverage of police being, to put it mildly, a tad aggressive with people I'm sure districts are having lengthy discussions with their officers about use of force. Would the officer have shot the man if the dispatcher didn't give the heads up? Good question. Wish it didn't need to...

    Declaring your sexual orientation

    Agreed. I would think it would be illegal in the states as well. It's a form of discrimination. Asking the question is irrelevant to the job. Your religion & race sits there as well.

    Community Policing?

    That's a mighty mean 'glass half empty' argument you got there. If I'm going to be realistic criminals run that game whether they know the officers or not. A criminal is going to behave like a criminal unless they personally make a change. Depending on how prolific a criminal & whether this is...

    If All Police Officers Went On Strike

    I think if that were to occur a lot of people might have to change their minds about how they feel concerning gun control. It would be a strike that the city I'm in would need to quickly resolve. When the lights go out on a street here people lose their minds. I can only imagine if the news...

    Mama's girl/boy or Papa's girl/boy

    I'm neither. There's a lot of ins & outs to the 'whys' & 'hows' but that's always been the case. Even in the child years.

    What is the weirdest fact you know?

    The stickers on produce are edible. Are they delicious? No. Do they still taste like a sticker? Yes. Are they edible? Absolutely.

    How Does Police Work Affect Relationships?

    I'm not sure it's in the hands of the people who are not police officers. It seems like officers prefer the company of other officers/detectives/court employees/etc. It may have a lot to do with spending so much time on the job & establishing relationships there. Being an officer is a tight knit...
