Would a stun gun, like the ones on Star Trek, be useful to police in dealing with unruly perpetrators? I'm just trying to think of a way to avoid having to kill people in the name of fighting crime.

I only wish this were a more detailed explanation . You shouldn't share a boyfriend with your sister. Nor should you be sharing a vibrator. That just doesn't seem very hygienic.

I have always had good experiences with the police. But then I always give them their due respect. Lately I've felt sorry for them, because they have been painted with a broad brush. We rely on our police to keep society civil. Without them things would fall apart. Force is the only thing...

I just would like to know if the average officer feels like a target. I know that soldiers who served in Operation Iraqi Liberation often said that they felt like they could be sniped at, at any moment. I just feel like I would have the same feeling as a law enforcer. Am I wrong?

I have a great idea. We can avoid this in the future simply by never having sex with women we would want to be mothers of our children. It is evil to kill, and twice as evil to kill a pregnant woman. It's likely that the baby will die with the mother. And if the baby should survive, what...

I'm sure it's legal. I think it makes sense to seek to diversify your police force, so that it reflect the demographics of the community. This could prevent a lot of misunderstanding in the future. Ultimately you want the best of the best, but a special effort needs to be made to ensure that...

You know, this may have been the end result of the time he spent in the war. Most people miss the fact that combat changes people. To come home and do what he is accused of doing tells me that something was very wrong with this man. May they all now rest in peace. Life must go on.

I guess they thought it was funny. Until the poor baby showed signs of being sick. This is why we need parenting licenses, before we allow people to be responsible for children. Until then don't be shocked by stories like these.

This technology age is going to be the undoing of society. Guess what if your not happy at home, I guess your best option is to get a divorce. If you think you can cheat these days and get away with it, you don't know what's going on. I strongly advise you to sleep with one eye open in that case.

There are so many reason to encourage physical fitness. Yet at the end of the day law enforcement is a job, and so long as you are fit enough to perform the requirements of your job you're good to go in my opinion. It's a free country. People should be given the facts about fitness and left...

This is absolutely the most alarming story I've seen on this forum. Obviously two things come to mind 1) Don't upset a person with a violent temper and 2) If you must upset a person with a violent temper at least keep a travel sized alarm clock. They don't do nearly as much damage.

Fitness as a measure of job performance? If an officer can't function on the job as a result of being overweight, that's a problem. However, if he or she can still do the job, and meet expectation that's another matter. How many NFL linemen are technically obese (I believe that means you're...

It has a lot to do with how a child is raised. There are critical times in a person's life. If they aren't guided on the straight well lit path they can get lost. It's really very sad. As parents we have to strive to set a good example and be a counter balance in the lives of the young...

If this were an episode of Jeopardy I guess I'd say "What is a sick scumbag!", but this isn't Jeopardy so I won't say that. There are way too many psychopaths/sociopaths roaming the country side these days. All I can say is I'm glad the police got him.

I'm curious to hear from the women in law enforcement. How does being female affect the way you approach the stress of your job, and how does it affect your family life?

Any healthy individual in society who feels menaced to the point where they fear for there lives should be give the option to legally defend themselves. That doesn't give them the right to kill or instigate situations. These people should be cleared by a psychologist before they are simply...

These stories are pretty regular. There always seems to be one. A seventeen year old has no excuse, if you ask me, for doing what he is alleged to have done to the six year old victim. God have mercy.

We all know that television is all about ratings. If you work in television production and you want to keep your job, you make sure to keep your program interesting. Which is where the fantasy comes in. The juicy fake stuff meant to jazz the production up to keep audiences coming back for more.

There are people starving in the world right this very moment. Can we please not waste food. If your're angry or upset, simply voice your anger. Besides the lady was pregnant, give her a pass. The word that comes to mind is cad.
