Let them march,the PD captain said hey,why dont all of you officers take a break for an hour or two.

Good, I'm glad you don't want to come to Florida. Too many Yankees here as it is. They ruined my childhood home of South Florida turning it into another Nu Yawk and Nu Joisey. I had to move 300 miles to get away from them.

I grew up in the south, but the rest of NJ is coming your way, which is another reason to pass on FL as a choice.

 

[Diver]

Slippy, we are wasting our time here. All he is interested in doing is griping. Not interested in taking any action.

What action do you suggest? Move? Where and why there? Something else? What?

 

[Diver]

While I agree that there are cops that use excessive force, and take advantage of their positions there are also good cops. Saying all police are bad is like saying all cats have blue eyes. I looked at the map and if you go year by year it is interesting to see where the markers are. Americans have the right to protest and express their opinions, that is one of the good things about this country. Thanks to all the Veterans and active military for keeping it that way. Calling for death to all police is absurd, inciting and not a well thought out plan. When someone is murdered who gets called? When someone breaks into your house who gets called? When someone assaults you who gets called? If all the police are dead or have walked out what will happen?

I believe that the corrupt, above the law cops should be fired and charged with whatever crime they committed. No one should be above the law! So lets focus on the ones that did something wrong, instead of focusing on the ones that followed the rules or calling all cops corrupt.

I don't like what I am seeing, the demonstrations are getting larger and more violent. Good cops are retiring/quitting. Is this the beginning of another civil war? I pray it isn't but a lot of my prayers are not answered.

For the record I have only had one encounter with a police officer. He was kind and caring. He sat on the floor next to me and and told me repeatedly I would be okay. He talked to me about his children and kept me calm until the ambulance arrived. Perhaps I have a skewed perception of police, but all I can go on is my personal experience.

I have been assaulted by a schizophrenic. The cops made a point of telling me it was not their job to protect me but that if anything happened to the schizophrenic they would arrest me. That's when I made the decision I will never call them again.

Sorry, but I can't buy the idea that police have any role in my protection when they have told me to my face they don't.

There is a movement afoot in Florida to separate the state in two, along the I-4 corridor. Oddly enough, this has been brought up by South Floridians who think us Northerners are a bunch of ******* hicks. Which we are.
But I think the line should be a little more north, from Daytona across to the Gulf.

The Supreme Court ruled years ago that the police have no duty to protect citizens.

Draw the line from Daytona to just north of Tampa. You keep Pensacola and JAX, let the New Yorkers have Miami, Tampa and Ft Lauderdale. This plan is Inor approved.

You'll still have morons. My cousin is one. Her and her husband live in a community in Santa Rosa county that is so small her graduating class took a short wheelbase van to Orlando on their senior trip. All the seniors attended. She voted for Clinton both times. I don't know if she voted for Obama as she and I have no spoken 1998. That's when she told me she voted for Clinton both times.

Absolutely correct which is another reason why I don't buy any argument that they have a role in my protection.

You all realise this looks alot like those in power wanting to federalise police to consolidate power. first stir up a cause demonise what what you want gone stir some more trouble people will beg for saving in comes the fed

Someone is behind this, that's for sure. The current administration? New Black Panther Party? Farakan?
To be this coordinated across the country it is not just spontaneous action.

I font know, I do agree some with Diver, that some police are overstepping. Yes, the system needs help. Good cops are everywhere, just like bad cops are everywhere.
But, for any crowd to chant about wanting to kill all cops is just wrong.
Have I been treated like shit by a cop, yes, but, I have about twenty other cop stops that were legit.
Thank GOD the one stop that was bad didn't put their hands on me. Just searched me and the truck becouse of my reputation. Of course, the main officer said she saw me throw thrash out the window.
Back to the topic, were the hell would we be without cops?
Buy some precious metals, and some water, this may get uglier very quick.
GOD BLESS THE GOOD POLICE, AND EMERGENCY REDPONDERS.

 

[Deebo]

Wait till the shit really hits, and guns are confiscated.
Sure am glad I sold mine to Barry.

 

[bigwheel]

Its hard to imagine all the retards who hang around here who have issues with cops. I have lived quite a few years and the only trouble I have had is when it was richly deserved and most times they wasn't around on the really offensive acts. What do the whiners smoke?

All it would take to put a stop to this is for the police in various cities, e.g. New York, to announce they were going to take serious action to clean up their own ranks and to deal seriously with complaints of police abuse and follow through. How about transparency about how many people are killed by police, or how many abuse complaints there are and what is done about them?

Despite the fact this stuff has been building for months, nothing of the sort is happening. These would be really easy steps and they are required under current law!

 

[bigwheel]

Well I temporarily removed you from the ignore section to see if you had anything remotely intelligent to say and sure enough you dont. Go back to sleep.

 

[Deebo]

I was in the wrong most every time I interacted with the police. Wasa lways courteous and Kool.
