HAHAHA I miss Good Old Detroit!! I would have liked that video a little more if I didn't have to listen to Sean Hannity on his radio though...
No, our SWAT team is fucking insane. Not "wow, they're tough, I want to be like them" insane, but "why are these people allowed to carry firearms without an adult present" insane. So nobody should be allowed to volunteer for the military? Because that's about how much "power" I have. And who would you suggest should have that level of power? I've seen your posts here and there, and you seem to smart to be one of those "we don't need any law enforcement, everyone would just get along" dumbasses, so I'm assuming you think SOMEONE should be doing the job. I couldn't give a shit about drugs, and if you don't care about your job, you're either going to suck at it, or you're going to turn into one of the sort of cops you guys holler about. My job is about as powerful and violent as a tax accountant's job. Sheriff Joe Arpaio is a fucking Nazi. Given that standard, the whole US military should be court martialed because of Staff Sergeant Robert Bales.
cops thats fuck up there never around when you do need them but aways around when ya dont need them seems like there the same every where ya go.
I'll come back and answer that later, I should be working on a paper at the moment. But I think you pretty much agree with me.... but don't see it, or are doing that intentionally.
Well, I think the disconnect here is that you're lumping in all cops together, which is an inaccurate view of the world. There are corrupt cops, naturally, and there are brutal cops. What there mostly are, though, are 3 kinds of cops: 1. Cops that want to save the world. They turn brutal with frustration after a few years. 2. Cops to whom it's "just a job". They tend to become corrupt. 3. Cops that find their niche, and are fascinated by the work. I'm in this group, and our primary problem is that we tend to become fairly isolated in society...Not because we don't like people or whatnot, but because we're fairly obsessed with what we do. The only really disturbing thing to me is that I'm obsessed with homicide work, in which there are by definition no happy endings. But I'm reasonably good at what I do, and someone has to clean up the mess.
We had several good cops who grew up in the 'hood' and stayed in touch through the local coffee shop etc. My fav was a sgt on the bomb squad. I think she's a Lt. by now, good people with steel nerves.
Whoa. So NOT my style. I don't do bombs. That's why people like her exist. And a bloody good thing, too.
Sounds like she's one of the third variant of cop I described. She's good at what she does (well, she'd HAVE to be), and probably more than a little fascinated by it. I knew some EOD guys back in the army. They were a weird bunch.

Not too long ago, they maced a kid to death (how the fuck does THAT happen) in Chelsea, even though he was the one who had called them due to someone else causing trouble. This was directly after the London riots a while back.
Here cops are called "pigs", etc. There, they're called "the filth". And I'm not saying by ANY means that they're all like that. What I AM saying is that the abuses there - when they occur - are grotesque, even by American standards.
Man in Yellow deserves huge kudos for his rational responses while being repeatedly attacked by so many "pig haters." A policeman's job is to enforce all of the laws. His job description does not include making laws nor deciding which ones to enforce. If you don't want to be arrested for going 30 in a 25 zone or for smoking one of god's plants or for whatever else you don't like, then change the laws that you think are unfair or unreasonable.
