How will I go on?

I have to work today, but maybe I'll reply in full later.

I had a very long reply typed up but even I couldn't reread my own post, it was that long and boring. How can you say I should provide the numbers? You are the one saying there is a problem, prove it. If you are willing to throw out an accusation like that back it up. Oh, but you're not an investiga...

For one, I'm a police officer and well trained in use of force. Police do not release details of an ongoing investigation because it is just that, an ongoing investigation. Often, by the time the investigation is done and all is finished the media has moved on, the drama is gone. Details are not giv...

BoostedNihilist, how many instances are there actually in relation to the number of police and support staff? Out of, I'm guessing, close to 100,000 police officers and more support staff across Canada how many have been charged or found to have acted inappropriately? If you have numbers I'd like to...

cpl_atc, why do you snap at anyone who has different views than you?

They also consider 50,000 volt death-inducing tasers in the same class as batons and pepper spray, so forgive me if I don't pay much attention to how they classify weapons. They classify them according to their own double-standards, when it suits them to do so. You just showed how little you actual...

Wilbur, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Drunk Pilot Escapes Jail - Is It Safe to Fly Anymore? http://newsblaze.com/story/20100219150810ianb.nb/topstory.html SECURITY guards prevented a possible disaster - when an air traffic controller turned up drunk. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2624336/Drunk-Newcastle-air-controller-is-sto...

Maybe she should, along with the 1000's of other people of various ethnic groups in Montreal not have broken a law and all this would have been avoided.

cpl_atc... your arguments would carry a lot more weight if you didn't resort to name calling, ie "the ignorant cop". I've also read many responses of yours putting down people who voice a different opinion rather than actually debating them or making a rational argument. You're responses often come ...

I don't see where it says the court ruled the cop fucked up.

Searches of a person arrested or detained are for safety. Concealed weapons, needles, etc.. have to be found. Police officers and detained/arrested people have been injured or killed because of faulty or non-existent searches. Section B(8) of this link does a decent job of explaining it. http://dsp-...

Hmmm...another drunk driving case, and heres the result: North Vancouver police officer loses 10 days pay for drunk driving Cpl. Darren Baker was ordered Thursday to forfeit 10 days pay after he admitted at the hearing to driving under the influence of alcohol in December 2007.The punishment is the...

You're right, I do serve the public. I will put myself in harms way to serve them, and have. Just as I must be accountable to the public, I expect the public to listen to the reasons and try to understand why I do what I do. I don't expect everyone to agree, but I also don't expect to be labelled a...

There was no escalation of force. They merely walked in, surrounded him, and tasered him. He never had a chance. The cops were the ones who escalated the situation, not him. Police do not go into a situation when they know the person is being violent, and the man in YVR was, and start at the bottom...

I never once said they deserve special treatment MUSKEG. I'm simply pointing out that the majority of people making comments have never once been tasked with arresting someone. They have never dealt with anybody in that capacity and yet are willing to make comments such as "Lazy, liers and punks in ...

I think the RCMP has gotten soft on there recruiting standard, they need to go back to the military style boot camp not this feel good liberal hippy crap. hmm 4 officers Vs 1 Suspect in a controlled secure area, Duh my only options are my taser and a gun and tackle him. FAIL What happened to the Mo...

Can I just ask, how many of the pilots, mechanics, air traffic controllers, etc.. are trained in use of force? How many after maybe reading about it have applied it to a real life situation? How many were present during this event and didn't just make up their minds by what they saw on the news? How...

crazy_aviator, do you have any evidence to back your statement up?

If my post came across as saying that the officer got off too easily or that the justice system is totally wrong, I did not mean it that way. The point I was trying to get across is that he didn't get off just because he is a cop. There are cases thrown out daily for technicalities that exist becaus...
