Why wasn't this on the news? The evil we do lives after us, but the good is buried with our bones? No, more like negative sensationalism sells newspapers and always will. This officer is a hero for what he did, and I'm sure that lady will be thankful for the rest of her life.

This is just out of bounds. Funny thing is I don't believe the mother was insane. More likely she didn't want to report the girls death so that she would be able to continue receiving aid money intended for the little girls care. God have mercy.

So far as I know most police departments do give veterans bonus points on their applications. The police departments in the U.S. are mostly paramilitary organizations. Having a military background therefore makes you more easily trainable for the very reasons you mentioned.

My friend I don't think there is anything you can do about this. I never have been a fan of lie detector test. They have too many flaws to be used as proper vetting tools. Hopefully the department you applied to will someday do away with them. Unfortunately that won't help you. If you know...

Makes you wonder what made her feel he had placed a curse on her. Thanks to the police for catching her before she could escape to New York. Then there would be a killer roaming the country. Almost certainly this woman is mentally ill.

Well, I never saw any rule that said you can't have fruit with coffee. I would go with an apple or a banana. They say that we should each have two servings of fruit per day. If you want to jazz it up a bit add peanut butter to a slice apple. They taste okay together. Beside the apple is a...

This will work too. But my method will give you an incredible shine. So perfect you can see your reflection on the toe of the boot. I guess that I would do it your way on average days, and my way on special days, or if there is some special event to attend. You always want to put your best...

I'm assuming that these are leather boots. All you need is some shoe polish (same color as the leather). You take the lid and you fill it half way with warm water. Next you need a cotton cloth (an old t-shirt will work fine). What you'll do now is wrap a bit of the cotton cloth around your...

This would be funny on television or in a movie. But this is real life and it's anything but funny. People are at their wits end perhaps. Regardless, we have to hold on to the thing which makes us humans and not wild animals. we must remember to be civil in dealing with each other at all...

Re: Are potential police officer background checks more thorough than other professio There are professions and occupations where the public depend so heavily upon a person being responsible. In such instances we have to be rigorous in our vetting. You know, airline pilots, brain surgeons...

It seems as though these people have no fear of the consequences of their actions. Is it even worth it? I mean you spend four years in college, maybe another year trying to find a job, and then you throw it all a way for a few moments of pleasure? I seriously don't get it.

This is why you should always bury a spare key in the yard, or keep an extra in your glove box. If you live alone that would be a smart thing to do. This young lady was banging on her own door, so it seems that she may have had a roommate or something. If not, her behavior was bazaar. Yet...

This is the side of the story that does't get sensationalized by the media. Any day can be your last on the streets and back roads of America when you're a police officer. This is what cops have nightmares about. Condolences to officer Patrick's family and to his department.

Here's the side of the story that doesn't get sensationalized by the media. This is what police officers have nightmares about. It's a shame when unarmed people end up shot, but hesitation on the streets can get you killed if your a cop. May Chief Pimentel rest in peace. Condolences to his...

Thanksgiving is a dangerous holiday. Often times these stabbings aren't about the turkey. Rather, people who have harbored ill feelings for each other are gathering to break bread in the presence of sharp objects. Conversation begins, someone say something they shouldn't have and the next...

Not that it should ever have become a physical altercation. I think the whole incident is ridiculous, but what happened to the days when young men would settle things with their fist. By the time weapons are drawn where talking about mortal combat. Over a snowball being thrown at a car?

There must be a name for the syndrome you're describing. People will observe something that they can't quite get their mind around and dismiss it, because they reason that the wildest thing in their imagination can't possibly be true. But sometimes it is true. You're right somebody should...

Actually this sort of thing has been going on for decades if not genaration. It brings to mind the Anglina Jolie film "Changeling", which was based on a true story. Set in the late 1920's in Los Angeles, the film relives the horror of a predator who was roaming the countryside with a young...

Back in the sixties the futurist were predicting that we would all be surviving off of tablets by now. World hunger would be a thing of the past, and the number one beverage on Earth would be Tang. I guess they were wrong. At least vitamins are beneficial if taken daily as supplements to a...

I didn't see this one on the news or read about in the newspapers. What I believe is that people are struggling with many issues these days, and many of them are not able to cope. I don't think it will get any easier, so I encourage people to develop a spiritual life for the sake of inner...
