    The Great Police Work Thread

    If you doubt the traffic stop thing, youtube cop shot on traffic stop. I'm not posting them here you go find them. And Jiggs, I said he over reacted, but of course you will not allow one iota of her being at fault in this. Go figure.

    The Great Police Work Thread

    Next to domestic disturbances, a traffic stop is absolutely the most dangerous thing an officer does and the most frequent. You have to watch traffic coming behind you, you never know what the person in the car is going to do, and then there is always the case of idiots like this one making more...

    Ok, I know this will not be taken well by those of you who think the police are brutalizing black people simply because they are black. But....While the officer did not handle things well, he was initially polite and thoughtful until she refused to do as she was asked. The officer obviously over...

    not back yet, i'm here all week. Today there were protesters, Muslim fol practicing open carry with rifles, people threatening to throw balls filled with poop or bottles filled with urine. Thankfully that stuff is on the outside of the perimeter and not near where we are working in the Q. I feel...

    The Great Police Work Thread

    Ok, the topic is black lives matter and minority relations, and how blacks are treated differently than others regarding complaints and assaults. First of all it's "their ability", not "there ability", and I didn't say lazier than white cops, I said "but there are also black officers that have...

    BTW, I spent 4 hours in Sundance Square with groups that are in support of the BLM folk. the whole event was open conversation and hugging and taking pictures with kids and folks of all color just visiting and talking on Tuesday night. And then a few of my officers, a deputy chief and myself...

    I would agree with you if we were talking about even as recently as twenty years ago or later. But I have to be honest with you. Police in large departments have been barraged with so many classes in things like cultural diversity that the fear isn't being amped up to deal with a black person...

    How old are you and when were you specifically suffering these historical ills? At some point we need to recognize history and then work to get over it. I understand years of police treated minority people poorly and I also know the history of minorities in police work. I can't do anything...

    I did say the left, maybe I should have said the prominent or dominant political and media left. Just because you may be on the left and don't feel that way, you don't get any coverage. And we all know the expression actions speak louder than words. The president is a two faced liar and while he...

    I wasn't assigning anything. I was pointing out there are idiots like this one that the media gives attention to as the spokespeople for these types movements. I in no way assume this is the norm because I know better and likely better than you because of my daily interactions. But when the...

    Peace out R. Sherman. The BLM movement was a movement based on a lie to begin with. It started with the Michael Brown incident. It had never been heard from before that. I have no opposition to anyone starting a group based on sincerely held truths, or beliefs, and carrying out peaceful...

    YOu are right sir. What is really sad though is that that type of music with the messages in it became popular with any culture or race. and while it is judgmental, lack of parenting of both white and other races is a big part of it. I pay attention to what my daughter and kids around her...

    You will never hear that coming from the left because that just doesn't divide us like "white cops hate black folk and kill them every chance they get." I heard audio of preachers saying they were going to tell their kids to not listen to cops if they were confronted and "defend yourself"...

    At this point we see that Gallo isn't going to be Bryce Harper or even close. I'd easily consider trading him for a starter.
