Is there proof that it is a slow road to brain death? The people using it who end up the way they are get there on their own accord. Much like alcohol usage and people who choose to abuse their prescription pills. They choose to live that life regardless of what their life could be, when used at...

Please try not to think of this as everyone else not having "knowledge and understanding." Your thread was not very detailed in exactly what you were upset about. You have good reason to be upset, and I am sure that other's in this community would be more then willing to help by signing this...

This is awful, and the fact that she is having trouble undoing her "power of attorney?" I sincerely hope her daughter is able to step in now and help her mom out. I just hope this boy hasn't been trying to feed her medications to cause an overdose. Money definitely seems to be the object here.

What is the point in law if they are holding themselves above the law? Honestly I am not surprised, especially coming from Chicago. After reading the article I am still confused though (or just not reading correctly), this "black cite" is perfectly legal and is staying where it is? Or it is...

Sounds to me like the officers are against same-sex couples and made it a point to arrest them when they realized they were 2 guys. Not saying it doesn't happen, but how often do we hear of straight couples getting arrested for having sex in their vehicles?

I have never lied to an officer, but I don't see why anyone would want to anyways. If I was being questioned about something that fell in the time frames of my Husband and I having intercourse, or me using the bathroom, IT WILL BE TOLD. Honesty is always the best option.

It's just like Facebook. People pretty much snitch on themselves there, and then wonder why their probation officer is calling them into their office the next day for a random drug screen. I don't think there is anything wrong with this app being used to help focus on the drug issue, it's not...

I have been told many different figures. A recent State Trooper in the state I live in now mentioned at least $40xxx. City officers in my home town, $35xxx. My Husband's Step-Dad (when his Step-Dad's Mom was the Mayor) as Sheriff, $120,000. I think it really depends on where you live, and also...

I am more than confident it happens. But I also feel it happens in every occupation. The fact that it happens so much in law enforcement is a real shame. It is why certain criminals are able to get away with murder. There is a saying in my hometown for these types of situations "money talks and...

I hate to see Pitt-Bulls getting slammed with a bad reputation over bad ownership. Other's have mentioned it, but I am also curious as to where the owners were and why they would leave a toddler alone with a dog it was not raised around? What about the parents as well? Why would they allow their...

It was indeed a personal reference. They were the type that were always looking for ways to degrade others, never had a positive thing to say about anyone, just had this "nothing is good enough" attitude toward life. My home was also home to cats and dogs who would otherwise be euthanized at...

@Proffit5500 They have already tried. Instead of pressing charges for the more serious things, I ended pressing charges against them for disturbing the peace. My Husband was working night shift and my neighbors were very well aware. They have a lot of traffic that comes in day and night, and...

As a previous user, I could not see how this natural herb compared to anything like alcohol, cocaine, cigarettes, pills or anything like that. I didn't smoke all the time, I didn't allow it to interfere with my responsibilities and I WAS NEVER ADDICTED! I don't know many who have been addicted...

I mentioned it my thoughts in another post. It should be mandatory for officers to seek mental health during and after serving. They see more trauma than most, and their training to make quick decisions can easily hinder their daily thinking process. It really takes the right kind of person for...

This is another case that makes me firmly believe Mental Health for law enforcement and military personnel should be a must, regardless of how "okay" they seem. In all reality, officers and military personal do have too much responsibility, despite their wages. Could everyone easily make a daily...

I would have to say that all counties have different guidelines to follow. I recently talked to a State Trooper, questioning him the process because my husband has put alot of thought into Police Academy, and he told me that their applications are submitted electronically, states can no longer...

It is very sad that kids are involved. In my home town, kids were taken away from parents and fostered/adopted when parents couldn't stay cleaned up. I live almost 60 miles away from my hometown, except in a different state and this is the worst difference I have seen so far. Apparently they...

I suppose that is all one can do when there is really nothing no one else can do--prayer, and lots of it. Especially for the children. It just makes me wonder where the real justice is though? When we make these reports of high traffic and such, and everyone knows who they are, why not find a...

@JoanMcWench I should have watched the video before I commented but when I did watch... I know it is supposed to be a "haha" video, but lets be honest; did it not seem he was driving a little too fast for the fact that both his hands come off the steering wheel several times, and that his eyes...

Oh my goodness, yes, and I have almost been hit like 3 times by an officer doing this in my home town. I had witnessed it several times sitting at red lights (thank goodness I do not live there anymore) but to be honest, I have had to wonder often if the cop was just busy doing something in...
