Okay, this is getting annoying. Could you please quote at least part of the articles you keep sending us to? I don't typically blindly follow links, even if I do recognize the URL.

I find it interesting how poliece can grab a man with a mp3 player, yet they miss gang members with pistols and submachine guns tucked in their waistbands.

Unless it happens to be shaped like a wallet...

Who keeps a wallet tucked in their front waistband? When I do carry a wallet, i keep in my side pocket. I dont understand how people keep in their ass pockets. My dad keeps his wallet there. It is overflowing with crap, and to top it all off, he keeps a comb in the same pocket.

BJ: If you don't like it, too bad. I'm not going to waste my time picking out references if you are too lazy to look at the article. Otherwise pay special attention to the thread title. It usually means something.
Sean: Daniel is making a reference to Amadou Diallo in which officers fired around 40 rounds after mistaking a wallet for a gun.

I'm truly shocked. Not at the news though...I'm shocked that 'The Daily Mail' didn't try to blame it on either Europe or immigrants. They blame them for everything else, after all.

Now they need to find who made the report and do them for wasting police time. It does seam odd how coppers are always so efficient at responding to false alarms and Brazilians, yet if anything REAL crops up like a pentioner getting his head kicked in my a pack of hoodies or young girls getting stabbed to death in broad daylight they have a habit of being undermanned, busy with all the paperwork or just nowhere to be seen.

It's things like that that make me hesitant to join the law-enforcement field.

There was a Le Tigre song made about it, by the by and incidentally; "Bang Bang." Telling lines include "when they can't tell a wallet from a motherfucking gun" and "bring me Giuliani's head" (he was police chief at the time, IIRC).

Y'see, here I was thinking there was some sweet new gun that told you how much ammo you had left, ordered more online automatically, AND played music. How bout some truth in advertising dude? Even a five word summation of the article would have been great.
Seriously tho, people are getting paranoid, and it's all terrorisms fault. It's the new Cold War people, think about it. Frankly I think that lad has every right to bring legal action against those officers.
Sean: If you want to go into law enforcement all power to you. If you can stay away from the whole power trip thing that everybody's experienced at least once. We need more good, nice cops that don't let their power go to their heads. We got this one cop, most people call her the "Charger Bitch" for her car, and if she weren't a cop her next job would be a dominatrix. No kidding.

For me, it's either cop, or history teacher. Either way, I send a message to youngsters. Either by arresting their asses, or by giving them poor grades for poor work.

Da_bang: I usually tend to post the first thing that comes to my mind. That's how I post my articles around here. Otherwise, I'd be bland and boring.

Giuliani has never ever been a chief of police. Ever.
