That is a good point. I often forget that when there are issues like this going on, there are crooks who come out of the woodwork to take advantage of the situation, even though they may not have any stake in the real issues at hand.

Do people who get pulled over for drunk driving usually know they have had too much and are driving anyway, or are they seem to not realize they are legally drunk?

What do you cops think about what is currently going on in Ferguson? Do you think law enforcement could have made better decisions in the last few days?

A close friend of mine is being harassed at work by a very, very clever man. He has been doing things in a way that make it look innocent, so he can't be caught, but she has caught on to the pattern and is actively resiting his advances. He one fingered her waste, which she called him on and...

I am in favor of it because I feel it is the appropriate punishment for first degree murder. We have pretty good ways of getting conclusive evidence now with DNA. If they can not prove reasonable doubt, then I think we can be pretty confident we have the right person. Reasonable doubt is not...

My best remedy is, at the very first sign of a possible scratchy throat coming on, put about 1/4 tsp of baking soda in warm water, gargle and swallow. Repeat every few hours until there is no sign of any symptoms. In the evening I will chew up and swallow a small clove of raw garlic shortly...

I think I would stay where I am, though perhaps I would change neighborhoods if money wasn't an issue. I would love to have a little tiny house but a decent sized yard where I could have a few chickens and grow lots of veggies and beans. I love my town and can't imagine leaving.

That is so sad. I hope his family gets lots of love and support. It's always such a shock for everyone when something like this happens.

I haven't had the experience myself, but I have heard stories about a particular local cop from several work acquaintances. He was basically a jerk and liked to pull women over for silly reasons that no one else would pull someone over for. It sounded like he just enjoyed seeing how they would...

I have only been to the reception desk, not actually all the way inside. I just went a couple of times, once to get a bicycle license, the other time to report being harassed by HS kids while riding home from work.

I don't think there is any way to totally eliminate racial profiling. There are many other forms of profiling as well, like what kind of car, how one dresses ect. To some degree I think they all use it simply because they kind of have to to do the job. Where it is inappropriate is pulling...

Winter can be a really hard season for some people. For me it is financially hard because it is the off season in my town, so there isn't all that much work. For others it could be the weather that makes it difficult with having to shovel snow, keep the heater going, deal with bad road conditions.

Oh, I don't know. I am not picky at all. I will be happy with anything that is useful and not going to take up space and sit around.

I wish I could say I did not like ice cream because then that would be one more think I wouldn't have resist. But I do really like Hagen Daaz banana split. That would be my favorite, but I kick myself every single time I cave in and eat it. I would be much better off without any sweets at...

I prefer Firefox. I just like how it is laid out best. I have used explorer, but don't care for it that much. It's an OK browser. I tried chrome but couldn't get used to it so I dropped it.

I like twitter, but I use it more for role play than regular social media stuff. I don't really do the social media thing like most people do. It's just not for me, too shallow and I feel like I don't really know the people that well anyway because we never have real conversations. That's why...

Call your city and ask if their is a noise ordinance. Some cities and towns have an ordinance against loud noise after 10PM or whatever hour they choose. If they have one, let them know what is going on, basically file a complaint. That way they can let the cops know there is an issue going...

I hadn't even thought of police getting calls about people falling, I assumed the EMTs would take care of that. Definitely would be more traffic accidents though, that's a given.

When the weather is snowy, icy or otherwise nasty winter weather, do you get more or less calls generally? How much does weather affect response time for you? I imagine bad weather might be viewed as an opportunity for some criminals, thinking they could get away before cops could get there...

What do cops do when on patrol in snowy weather to keep themselves safe? Are chains sufficient if you run into problems and have to pull people over? While a lot of people slow down in snowy weather, I know there are plenty who do not follow advice and go way too fast. Is this something you...
