I'm surprised to see yahoo link a story like this, no money for big pharma. Look at the side effects of statin drugs and figure out what you want to try first. Of course my grandma told my dad to take niacin and salmon oil for high cholesterol half a century ago, nice to see them figuring out...
Never heard of this guy and I have no idea if I agree with him or not. But he was arrested and charged with blackmail for sending an email telling Sen Branan that if he doesn't oppose the UN's agenda 21, he will make him a laughingstock. In Oklahoma, speech “which would in any way subject such...
That's interesting that you saw it that way, I didn't take it that way. But I don't have a literal and figurative target on my back like so many officers do, so if I was constantly under attack like many officers are I might feel that way too. Like I said, I thought its mostly focused on the...
Since at least one of the moderators is an officer, thats a pretty wild claim, but most of your claims have been off of the deep end. The funny thing is, over the last week I have passionately disagreed with mrjarrell, level.eleven, and stevenh on many issues. We have argued on Israel, religion...
This thread has taken on a life of its own, mostly from people who never even read the article. The sad part is there isn't much that most of us disagree with. Its mostly focused on the fact that polititions are trying to paint our streets as war zones with the police at war with droves of...
Yes I would! I want every officer to be as safe as possible and I'm sure BearCats do serve a purpose. I just think there is some middle ground. When the public's normal image of cops is guys in black face masks riding in tanks instead of their neighborhood officer that they chat with over...
Holy crap, did I say a civilian LEO would never be shot at in a neighborhood? Sometimes when I read some of the police brutality posts on INGO I start to get upset. And then I remember the cops I know. My 8 year old son's Sunday school teacher is an IMPD officer. My best friend from college is a...
Thank you for making the point that this article made. How many officers were killed with a 50 BMG? How many crimes are committed in the US with one? I could find ONE case, an officer tragically killed by shrapnel. So we should outfit police departments for this? Officers are not going out into...
So since your department doesn't have one you make fun of it? This is more of the snark that isn't helpful to an honest conversation. Do you think the tanks and BearCats and armored vehicles are needed?
Yes, '10 and '11 were higher than '12. And the years before were even higher. And the years before that were higher still. Deaths, both from accidents and violence, have been steadily declining and are at the lowest point since the early 1960's (taking out the anomaly of the 9-11 attacks) . I'd...
I said the thread has quickly turned to snark. I said this crap is what derails good threads, which I thought this one could have been. You want to know why? Because it was a stinking good article! You should read it if you get a chance.
Well two different people can have two different opinions, so I guess you saw it as condescending and I didn't. But all BS? You think the actual statistics for the last decade of deaths, accidents, and homicides are all BS (They were linked in the article)? Or is it BS because it proves the...
Did you read the article, honestly, or are you just assuming it's a bunch more cop bashing? It's the opposite of cop bashing. But yeah, its devolved into a bunch of snark, which kind of sucks. Which was my point.
After the Newtown tragedy the talking heads said we needed to find ways to help people more with mental illness. So this is the plan huh, make people scared to get help. Brilliant, right up there with their "common sense" gun control measures.
Does this add anything to the discussion here? Why wold you attack him? To be productive you could agree with him, disagree with him, or ignore him. This is the kind of crap that derails good threads.
You are entitled to your own opinion, not your own facts. You have made outrageously false claims here and been corrected. You have ignored the corrections of your repeated lies. You have shown us all where the true "rhetoric and propaganda" is coming from, and I thank you for that. I am almost...
