Wow, I gave you too much credit before. This is low. I hope I’m not the only one who sees that.
I can only assume that you consider yourself friends with heroin dealers, which makes you, as them, pieces of shit.
That’s fine, I’ve no problem saying where my opinion leans. Doesn’t mean I swear fealty to Cuomo. It means that I believe the police are geared towards helping the people who need it.
But see this here is the problem with your premise. Policing today has changed a lot, you're right about that. We're specialized now. All departments do this except the smallest of the small. I don't conduct car stops. I legitimately do not know how to write a summons in NYC anymore because the...
I hate when people say “so you’re saying...”
No, I didn’t say that. I typed a specific set of words, chosen to express my thoughts the way I see them.
The review panels you mention exist to effect one specific function only: punishment against the police. They have no other function or...
We saw one last year while camping in Hoffman Notch near Schroon Lake. Saw numerous tracks. I reported the sighting on the DEC page.
I’m going back there in April.
That's a "change my mind" question and we all know by now that's not going to happen with you. You've actually hardened against the police more and more over the years I've known you. Not mad, just an observation. What could I possibly say that would change that? Besides, like I already said, I...
Who does your indisputable fact speak for? Maybe you should express yourself more clearly. You spoke for all police, I didn't. I don't know what other departments are doing. Only you do from what you're telling us.
I was there for New Orleans. The 82 was set up in the town I was tasked to patrol as if it was Iraq. They were tasked with “checking papers” as Will likes to say. They had a .50 cal set up on a bridge entering Westwego in a sandbagged fighting position.
Truebeliever, there’s no quota anymore whatsoever. I heard recently that not even Highway is allowed to have a quota anymore.
As a supervisor if I even dance around the subject and a cop reports me, I’m toast.
Every single training stresses finding alternative solutions for problems besides...
Lol.
Honestly guns were part of the reason I did it. I knew I couldn’t do what I wanted to do here unless I was a cop. I was considering staying in CO but due to the heavy military presence, I was warned that CO agencies finagled to hire locals over vets.
You don’t need a good word, come on down. Print the application off of the website and follow the instructions. Come to the meeting on the 1st Wednesday of the month and you’re in.
Not to hijack, but if you’re in Brooklyn there are two outdoor ranges on Staten Island which are definitely SCR (and more) friendly.
I am a member of Richmond Boro Gun Club. $300 annually plus 2 work parties, that’s it. Multiple competitions every week, USPSA once a month. Unlimited guests for...
The way your question is worded implies that you are only focusing on laws which benefit “society”.
What about actually impacting victim’s lives? Bringing criminals to face punishment for the crimes they’ve committed against the good people of society, whether helpless or not?
Consider your...
Anyone who thinks that something has changed and cops don't spend MOST OF THEIR TIME helping lost people, scared kids, victims of crimes, people who need rides, etc is just a dumbass unworthy of me attempting to genuflect to.
Some fail to understand, just like leftists, that we should still be able to converse as rational humans (a common occurrence in "yesteryears"). Simply bringing up facts does not imply anything else, and should not immediately illicit sarcasm, anger, and in some cases, outright trolling.
The camera takes discretion away in these cases.
When cameras were the hot topic on this forum, I brought this up numerous times. Body cameras are mostly a bad thing for the citizens, but 100% a good thing for the cops. That's my assessment. The idea that rampant abuses were happening and body...
That varies wildly, hard to say for sure. Mine is typically square on my chest, but in the summer it varies depending on what I’m wearing. Here it is left up to officer preference with multiple mounting options coming with the camera. There’s even a pretty cool one that uses a backing behind the...
I read another article where the DA flat out stated that if there was ever a case for justified deadly physical force, it’s this one. Not often a DA is willing to make such bold statements in support of cops anymore, even when the evidence is overwhelming.
I’m not arguing on this forum anymore and since you’ve already set the bar incredibly low for your annoyance level, there’s not much more to say without possibly arguing. You shouldn’t print, I agree with you based on your posts. I don’t care about it and consider it a non-issue.
But the point is there is no such thing as “printing”. All else being legal, “printing” means nothing according to the law.
My first post covered it succinctly: unless you’re doing something illegal or consider the possibility of a brief stop equivalent to Nazi Germany, then “printing” in NY...
Will is correct that “printing” could become a problem to anyone who equates possibly talking to a cop for a few minutes with the grievous injustices which led to our schism with the British Empire, and non-NY residents of course.
Legally though, “printing” in and of itself does not exist in...
Everyone needs to read this dissent. It will only take about 10 minutes. Besides the obvious point of showing you were Thomas stands on this issue, you will learn a lot about how court decisions are arrived at and how detailed Thomas' argument is (and obviously correct).
Please read it. I refer...
Absolutely, depends on how they write the decision. Thomas could use this case to write a scathing decision flat out saying that the 2nd Amendment means what it says and NO gun laws are legal. Wishful thinking of course.
It is much more likely that in going "radical" the majority author will...
Definitely more to this story...
The best case scenario is "Hey guys, you have to come see this new gun I bought," which is highly unlikely to be what really happened.
I know I’ve mentioned this here before but about 4 years ago I told him to keep his hands off of my guns while working a detail. He came around to shake the cops hands (he is actually a big police supporter) and said to us “whatever concerns you have, let me know.” So I did.
How do these pieces of shit propose that one complete the training requirement prior to purchasing their own handgun since NY law prohibits adults from shooting another adult's handgun?
That Slate article is fantastic because it shows their fear without total sensationalism. It lays out a very possible scenario.
Scotus doesn’t take cases for no reason. While they certainly could rule narrowly, Thomas has been itching to extend the 2nd Amendment outside the home where it...
There are lots of ways that Thomas can write his decision (mark my words it will be him) to broaden the scope of this ruling.
This is great, great news. Naysayers are just trying to justify their past statements as fact.
