    Did i do right in this situation?

    Exactly. If he ever contacts you in order to resolve the situation or something, don't trust him just like that.

    Video: Dealership helps fallen cop's widow keep his truck

    I'm glad some people still care about others and not only about their own business. People seem to be very selfish now-a-days, this is a sign of humanity.

    Boyfriend in Mexico made his girlfriend wear a chastity lock on her pants

    God... The worst of all is that she didn't press charges against him and will probably continue to suffer from the same problem, or even worse, as now he'll probably beat her up or something. It's clear that victims suffering from violence/abuse for a long time rarely speak out or press charges...

    School asks officer not to wear uniform or sidearm while picking up daughter

    I completely agree with him wearing his uniform and duty weapon. I mean, it's his job, and it most likely makes other people in the school feel safer when he's there, not the other way around. After all, he's a police officer, not a normal citizen with a gun.

    Welsh Police adds marked tractor to crime-fighting fleet

    This is kinda weird. I doubt criminals evade in tractors but if they do, it'd definitely be useful.

    Do you think People should be entitled to Carry Concealed Weapons

    Compare the amount of criminals having and using lethal firearms in America and UK. If American police officers would go around armed with beat sticks, they'd be harrassed and simply shot down by criminals on the run. Realities are different in every country, and you have to adjust the police...

    Wearing Sagging Pants? Pull up or pay up!

    Well, seeing that you expose your underwear when you use "saggypants", it can be considered as improper, though, they're taking it aways too serious. I'm completely against saggypants and would never use pants that way, but I can't really be bothered to care about who does it. I mean, let them...

    Jackie Chan has ignited controversy

    He clearly knew it was going to be polemic when he says "I probably shouldn't say that", though, that also challenges any reader to see the message behind the text. Most of the times, a message can be interpretated in many ways, it all depends on the image you have of the person who wrote it and...

    Did i do right in this situation?

    If your license plates were higher than the scratches, it could've been true, as when you brake, the front of your car lowers a bit, depending on your suspension. Since they were higher, it's impossible, unless he made a hard brake or you accelerated in the moment of the crash. You should've...

    Police officers as service providers

    As a Portuguese I can tell you that the reason why Portuguese police is so different, if we can call it that, is because they're not given good enough working environment. I mean, they receive miserable salaries, drive old and most of the time almost broke vehicles without the security options...

    Do you think People should be entitled to Carry Concealed Weapons

    That's true and you have a point. I mean, after all, it's great because people can defend themselves, I'm just worried about those who'll get it and use it for bad purposes.

    Cop or Officer

    I strongly believe officer is the best word to use in this case. It's the more respectful and formal way to refer to one, in my opinion, of-course.

    Jackie Chan has ignited controversy

    I can actually get what he's trying to tell. He "likes" it not for the disaster but for the helping and humanity environment hat it causes afterwards. What happens after the disasters shows the beautiful side of humanity and that should happen on daily basis and not when a disaster happens...

    Do you think People should be entitled to Carry Concealed Weapons

    The idea of seeing civilians carrying concealed weapons kind of freaks me up. Depending on who is allowed to carry them and the amount of testing they go through(both physical and psycological) I can see it as a positive or negative thing. At the same time it can be useful for his defense or...

    What is the Law about a Officer using a knife in a struggle

    If the situation you're involved in allows the usage of your handgun, then it also allows the usage of your knife, in my understanding. It all depends on the situation, type of danger you're facing and enemy weapon, I think.

    Is there a law about providing speeders with a speed radar inspection certificate?

    Good afternoon. I'd like to know if there's a law about police officers being obligated to show the driver they're ticketing for speeding, the radar inspectiong/calibration certificate if requested to. Thank you in advance.
