Both my family and myself have been effected financially and emotionally by the riots in Minneapolis. Some type of major event was required to draw attention to the abominable police behavior. It does appear the rioting has slowed and is now being replaced by relatively peaceful protesting. We’ll see where this leads. so what buisness loss did your family suffer ? as far as emotional just stop pulling pubes I have gotten calls to get on the calendar to pull plywood mostly from apartments . did 1 more insurace deal Monday to snow fence off a burnt out building . I wish I could get more of those like 1 a day for the rest of the month then take the rest of the yr off. not sure what orange plastic snow fence dose to limmit there liability but it works for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are definitely some douchebag cops. They need to be weeded out, and they all need to step up as a profession and demand it, without some of the bullshit protections from their unions. Absolutely they need to be held to a higher standard, just like a pilot, boat captain or anyone with responsibility for lives. That said, I know a couple real good cops, and this has been hard on all of them. They have half the fucking country whipped up into a frenzy over an incident that very very few of them are defending, dirtbag or not. Its a hard job, so I'm not interested in piling onto that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My neighbor is a retired deputy and county corner. He believes that until the cream in police depts take charge, the bully and power hungry cops will continue to define the police. While the change needs to come from within the departments, I seriously doubt it will. We both agreed that George Floyd’s death was mostly likely intentional on the officer’s part. He thinks the two knew each other more than what is currently being discussed. When learning that the two worked together, I thought the same thing. Score being settled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Score being settled. the 'cream' as you call them don't get promoted and are marginalized because they aren't team players and because there are so few of them. The bully and power hungry cops are the ones that get promoted to more senior positions as those in power relate to them. Here locally we have a Superintendent who I went to university with, where he did steroids so he could be a benchwarmer on a winless Canadian university football team Complete meathead. But he got promoted even while being on paid leave as he was under investigation by SIU. Now makes $220k/year and is 3rd highest ranking officer on a force that has 1400 officers. Will most likely be chief one day. It's absurd. Literally every force has a story like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one wants roll with them because they’re on a power trip and get off on hurting other players. It’s not out of the norm to have someone show up with an injury. You tell the guy your rolling with and he takes care of you. It’s about trust and respect. The cops practice little in the way of sportsmanship on the mat and don’t respect this rule. They all hang together and look like your typical tattooed thugs. It’s pretty pathetic. I have grown to dislike and disrespect how they conduct themselves. It’s a big fucking game to them.

favoritos Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I've met quite a few good cops. I've also met a few that were otherwise. I think it is interesting how different the general interaction can be with various officers. I'm sure the good cops would love to get rid of the bad guys. They just make it harder to do their job. A lot harder when you look at the big picture. There is no reason to protect a bad cop. Clean them out and let the good guys/gals do their job. We wouldn't even have these discussions if it wasn't for the problems created by some bad cops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am friends with several "good" cops but they know the bad ones within their ranks and do nothing to push them out. I have to say personally outside them trying to get me to give up some rights that my interactions with cops of which there have been many were pretty good. I have had a couple try to get me to allow searches which there is NFW thats ever happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some friends that are cops. I was at a cop retirement party at a bar on the south side and probably 70+ cops there. Fucking falling down drunk most of them. Watching them pull out of the parking lot doing donuts in the street (state highway) other dumb fuckery, just insanity. Could you imagine any of us doing that? One of my best friends was head of security at a bar that was a bucket of blood type place(mid 90's). Good place to go if you are looking to get into a fight or brawl. It attracted all of the local knuckle draggers. His bouncers were pretty skilled with the hands and very professional. Bunch of county sheriffs came in there one night and got really fucked up. Started being dicks, hitting on guys wives, pushing people around, total d bags. My bud and his guys asked them to leave, they decided to push back. the cops got fucking destroyed, some of them pulled out their guns. They had to call local and state police because well you know. They (cops)probably would have got away with it except it was all on video. They all got fired and arrested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know as well as I do, nothing in policing will change. That is until they hire intelligent people to be officers. hiring goons with low iqs is a major issue. My stepson is a training officer for a small town police dept. He gets applications for openings of say 100 for an open position. He says of the 100, roughly 75 are disqualified by a criminal past, another 10 can't make it past drug testing and the next 10 can't pass the interviews and personality testing. That leaves about 5 actual candidates and not always the most ideal candidates. Also, says less and less applicant with each opening is making it harder to get good cops. It's a problem and after this debacle going on, less will be willing to want to police even with the good pay and benefits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
