Poirot,

You'll go deaf in that leftist echo chamber.

I will wait for the Court report.

Suffice it to say that there are alternative reports. See here,

Nothing like the leftists for stirring the proverbial though. Up the revolution, eh what?

otb,

"Nothing like the leftists for stirring the proverbial though. Up the revolution, eh what?"

What a strange little rightist you are.

The US is brimming with weaponry in civilian hands....black people are being popped off at whim....police are decked out in combat gear above and beyond that worn on the battle field.

And you're blaming lefties.

For many years the US standard of living of those on middle and lower
incomes has been falling. It can be seen in the energy demand per head
of the US population. There seems to be no chance that this decline can
be reversed. I note that peak coal appears to have arrived both in the
world and additionally in China.

Energy consumption per head appears to have a very tight correlation
with standard of living. Falling standard of living may be having a
harder impact on black Americans. If I see anything along those lines
I will put it up here.

G'day there BAZZ...

A very adroit observation there BAZZ ! The level of training, both for the Chief (initially), an elected official, and his deputies vary so much both in standards and duration, many ordinary patrolman cannot complete a basic Brief of Evidence, relying instead on the DA, another elected office, or ADA to plug up any irregularities.

These errors should never get beyond the criminal brief adjudicators, who should normally carefully check the efficacy of the Brief, prior to submission for prosecution. Too many matters are lost, because a good defence lawyer can find sufficient holes in the evidence, to at least form a significant doubt, in the minds of the jurors ? In a capital case all you want is just one doubt, is all.

Another feature of these smaller Departments, often their Officers spend far too much time on F/A training, baton and handcuff training, pursuit work, and too little on 'bread 'n butter' police work. Preferring instead the exciting cowboy cops stuff, rather than the more theory based, interrogation methods, intelligence gathering, basic investigation techniques, arson investigation and evidence preparation - all vitally important when you're in a smaller Department ? A basic appreciation of the above is all that's necessary initially, but without any fundamental crime scene preservation...well you might as well just go home and watch TV for all the use you are, to the taxpayer, your employer !

A really good point, many should be included into the much larger, better trained and equipped Departments. The trouble is, there's something in their Constitution giving each City and Twp self determination and the right to appoint their own small, self- contained government of sorts ? The precise details of what escape me, I'm sorry.

"Meanwhile the roll call of prodominately black men and boys being shot by police in actions that seem bereft of real legitimacy doesn't seem to warrant in your mind armed resistance by that community". STEELEREDUX...

When people post such dishonest garbage, they can't be taken seriously, can they Poirot.

I dunno, Hasbeen.

You're the expert around here at posting dishonest garbage - why don't you tell us?
