I speed... and sometimes I throw garbage in my recycling bin if my garbage bin is too full. Is that illegal? I don't even know..

I've only been pulled over twice (speeding, and my front plate not being mounted but it was in my windshield which the police officer saw afterwards), and both times I've remained calm. I was taught to never move or reach for anything until the police officer approached my vehicle. I didn't grab...

Facebook addiction is a pretty big problem when it interferes with your real relationships. People in those situations feel that they aren't worth connecting to if you can replace them with a social network, or that you're looking for other people to connect with instead of the person next to...

The easy answer to this is to not open up too much. I don't tell anybody anything publicly online that I wouldn't say to a stranger in polite conversation. :) I've been part of forums that I knew the people IRL, but even then I don't post private information - I'd reserve that for a PM or...

Recently, the law enforcement and firefighters in my area have been training at an abandoned building. They've been conducting thermal imaging training and white smoke billows out and fills the whole surrounding block. I'm just curious if anybody knows what they use? It doesn't smell or look...

You always hear about people saying that women get off easier, but I think that's changing a lot these days. Women are just as capable of domestic violence as they are being a victim, and I hope it's being brought to light that they don't deserve special treatment just because they're a woman.

I know. I'm not asking specific details, I wouldn't do that knowing there's such thing as privacy. I'm asking this forum, meant for asking police officers things, if it's normal to have a heavy presence in a hospital or not.

I honestly haven't gone for over a year now. Maybe a year and a half. It's expensive, but I do like going when it's a good theatrical movie with extensive sounds and visuals. There haven't been many of them that I want to see, so I haven't gone lately.

I like doing surveys for extra cash, like on Amazon mTurk. It always helps to know I have $10 sitting online if I need it, for a little extra boost in my bank. It's not enough to make a living on, but it sure helps me when I'm living check-to-check.

I'd also be interested to know if they're "required" to, or if they do for another reason. Maybe it looks good in their file, or just because they're already involved with the community and want to give extra support.

Our cops have switched to Fords. Some still use the Crown Vic, but I see way more Ford Escapes around. They look really menacing, and they're QUICK!

We have two hospitals in our city, but neither are the "main"/major one. At first I did think maybe there was an incident involving a police officer, but I didn't see them sticking around one room, just kind of wandering. There was an incident with a man in the ER who was yelling, then he was...

I don't think there's any specific age to teach, so I hope you don't get any flack for teaching young kids about guns, but I think the most important thing to learn is RESPECT! Once a child displays respect, they're ready to learn gun safety. :)

In my city, they have specific shops and mechanics affiliated with the force who take care of their vehicles.

I usually watch YouTube videos or read before falling asleep. I know you're not supposed to use a screen or bright light before going to sleep, but it puts me right out.
