    Where Are The Riots?

    But that the media doesn't bother to report such barbarity shows how biased the media has come to be. Had it been a minority who'd been beaten up a mob, then you'd see it all over. All this race baiting is being used by the media and [the elite] to further divide the nation along racial lines as...

    WOW! Just wow!

    The old man was pretty lucky the dispatcher was kindhearted. Most people would have told him they'd send someone to check up on him. It's not their job to take care of old men who can't move around by themselves after all. There's proof that there are some good people in the world who live the...

    Sad Story, Death of a Young Officer

    He must have had something. Or maybe he just unlucky this time round. It's unlikely that he would have tried to ride a bike down the stairs unless he'd done it before. Probably like many of the other stuntsmen who die while performing stunts they've done before, this wasn't a good day for him.

    Time for the riots?

    Do they mean that showing respect would be charging the police officer with murder? A police officer's job is to protect people and if he feared that the weapon would be snatched and used against him and whoever was in the room, then he had to make a tough decision. And he did. Sure there are...

    Are the Police finally listening?

    I read an article yesterday written by an ex-cop [or so he claimed to have been] who had fatally shot someone. The ex-officer wrote that most WHITE police officers would rather not shoot black suspects because even if the shooting was justified it would always be misconstrued as a...

    Policy Changes?

    Rumors have been going round that in the wake of all the protests against what was perceived to be discrimination against blacks [by cops], a number of police departments promised reforms. But nothing happens overnight. It will take a really long time to root out the problem [racism] because it...

    Man Turns Himself In For Murdering Imaginary Friend

    "I stabbed Mr Happy repeatedly with a kitchen knife, cut up the body with a hatchet and buried him in my backyard." That's what one man who claimed he'd murdered his imaginary friend told the police. Punishment proportionate to the gravity of his crime, he felt was the death penalty...

    What Would Make a Criminal Want To Go Back To Jail?

    Could be. Why get out of jail to live on the street? But if it were me, I wouldn't sacrifice my freedom for anything. There are lots of odd jobs one can do, make a little money to live on. However if someone has nothing left to live for . . . the slammer might be the perfect place for such a...

    Should It Be Considered An Offense?

    You've heard of people calling cops only to tell them once they get on the scene that all they wanted was some company. Others call cops saying it's an emergency and they speed over only to find out that it's a mother who is angry at her kid because he doesn't want to brush his teeth and she...

    How Do You Deal With Mentally Ill People?

    Mentally ill people can be dangerous. And if police officers don't know it, chances are that person will get killed. So, supposing an incident has been reported and you don't know that the suspect is mentally ill, do you proceed straight to using force the moment you realize that the suspect...

    Cops: George Zimmerman shot at in apparent ongoing feud

    George Zimmerman has numerous enemies who'd like to see him dead. As Zimmerman was driving by, the shooter fired his weapon but the bullet missed his target's head. I wonder why they just can't jail Zimmerman and get it over and done with. Maybe they want him to kill another man first...

    What Would Make a Criminal Want To Go Back To Jail?

    A woman who killed her husband [it was a self defense thing] turned herself in saying she'd murdered her husband, because she feared her husbands family would "get her." It reminded me of something that happened in 2010. A convicted murderer upon being released from prison tried get back in...

    Local crime rates

    I live in a small town. More than half of the people here are senior citizens. That's probably the reason why the crime rates here are quite low. Only occasionally do we hear of crimes being committed but catching the criminals is also easy because there aren't too many hiding places. You commit...

    What's wrong with Arizona?

    I suppose correctional officers believe their safety is assured. Or maybe there haven't been many reported incidents of prisoners attacking or attempting to attack correctional officers. She should sue those who should have ensured that she was safe.

    More police officers shot!

    Cops should defend themselves regardless of the backlash from those who think they shouldn't. Maybe their unwillingness to shoot the suspects is what got them killed in the first place. This is the result of all the media's cop-bashing. Makes police officers uncertain of what they should do even...

    Inmate down

    I question the media's motives. It's like they want to see more and more riots. And what would the ulteriormotive be? Bring the issue of racism to the fore or divide the nation along racial lines? It's time, the media stopped trying to stir up trouble. This sort of irresponsible journalism has...

    Jurisdiction Question about Hackers

    Hacking is a federal crime and should be reported to the right authorities [FBI, ICE, etc] but as Dancinglady suggests, reporting the matter to the police could save you some time because they could help you contact the right people who can help you.

    What Do You Think?

    I doubt that it would help much. Kids learn from cartoons, movies and video games that violence is the easiest and fastest way to resolve any conflict. Since violence is "glorified" teaching kids about conflict resolution wouldn't help change their attitudes towards using violence as a means...
