I know that to be true, and I speak from experience. Again, it’s tough because it’s not always apparent at the outset.
Yes and some make fantastic cops. I think a LEO should be evaluated throughout their career for their own well being and the publics. The job is insanely difficult.

Selective outrage.
It’s a fine line. Military stresses discipline and following commands. Those are good things in many cases. Wimps don’t make good cops.
The discipline is true but we have a number of combat vets who have made their way into law enforcement. I can tell you from experience that those men can be changed in a way that makes them unfit for the job.

Better police training and the mandatory use of body cameras should continue to be the goal.

I would like to add a more stringent hiring process. I know plenty of Marine friends who have found their way into law enforcement. As much as I love them they are unfit for the job. Some are probably fantastic and others can't let go of previous training and combat.

And you are all part of the culture and therefore play a role in determining the outcome. Strange how libs, trumpers, minorities, professional agitators, all demand to be heard and demand their rights and freedoms. Complaints that someone else is stopping their right to freedom. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO THIS, OR SAY THIS ETC. THE FOUNDING FATHERS INTENDED ETC
Most of us were born with one mouth and 2 ears. They should be used in that proportion if you want to change the situation.
I'm sorry but I'm not a part of that culture and I don't accept any responsibility either. I'm 40 years old and have never been arrested or even close to it. I came from a blue collar upbringing and have had a job since I was 15. I am a Marine Corps vet, small business owner, and father of three. I try to be the best I can for my family.
Who should I be listening to with my ears?

Having watched the rioting all over the country last night I cannot believe ANYONE considers this to be a legitimate response to a single action by a single police officer. This nonsense simply can’t happen every time some cop somewhere does something really stupid. Which this officer(s) clearly did and has now been arrested and charged for it!
This has nothing to do with what happened in Minnesota. The rioting/civil disobedience started over Memorial Day weekend and I'm not talking social distancing. This is a cultural problem.

Isn't this a wonderful night to be proud to be an American?
It's embarrassing all around, from the garbage cop to the "protesting".

Brady is a complete weirdo. I can't even stomach him anymore. You can call it sour grapes and that is undeniable. The other truth is that I wouldnt care for him if he worked with me and never played football. Just a douche

I would pay him. I doubt the asking price is really 45 million per year. I have no problem with a 4 year deal either.
Dak isn't great but he is very good. I think he is a great teammate, leader, and winner as well. You get his best years with this deal.

This just paves the way for Josh Allen's pet rock project

yep, and 3 white cops pulling over a young black man have never erred in judgement before.
NOt saying he was or was not impaired, saying lets wait for the test results
This kind of rhetoric is useless and has no positive impact on anything. Should we consider the criminal statistics on young black men as well? Perhaps you are just trolling or maybe you really do think this way? The skin color of the cops or the accused shouldn't be used in a suggestive manner as both ways show ignorance.
I think Oliver is a good kid and this will be a learning experience for him. I also don't think McDermott will write him off. Some posters are obsessed with using worn out phrases like "choir boys" and "process type player". I really don't think McDermott or anyone in the organization believes that players should me mistake free.
I would guess they are looking for effort, focus, growth, and responsibility. All of which can be shown despite mistakes.
I still love Ed Oliver and glad he his on our side.

Our all time WRs aren't as good as what many current teams have right now. Sad truth

Sean Payton rubs me the wrong way. I hate his smug look and stupid visors.

I am jealous of Dalton to the Cowboys.
I like what Barkley has done for Josh. He has also played decently in the short term. However, IMO the season would be lost if either Barkley or Fromm had to play for an extended period of time.
Dalton and Winston would have been great at the current price tag.

I miss breakfast at a diner. It has always been my favorite meal out.

Fromm is a competitor and that is as important as talent to this regime. I think he indirectly pushes Josh without having a QB controversy. Josh being a competitor himself cannot have the backup out working him.

I liked the videos. They weren't incredible or anything but good for a one time watch. I agree with Ridgeway that everyone is in a race to dump on something because they feel it props them up a bit.

I saw someone at the gas station with a mask on, gloves on, goggles, swimmer cap, and Wegmans bags rubber banded around shoes.

Having to cancel my son's 4th birthday party,
having my daughters soccer season pretty much wiped out (first year travel, practiced all winter), and my 5 year olds first tball season is history too.
Similar disappointments

We have lost more on defense as well.

I like Ted's but their hot dogs are dog food compared to Zweigle's. Sahlens are just as bad. Maybe good for a toothpick but not to eat.
Zweigle's by a mile. Ted's is okay but as far as the actual dog goes.......not close. I've eaten at Ted's a dozen or so times over the years and I never understood the craze.

I would change this to the tailgate experience is very limited and if the Bills ever were to expand it to have more options like on campus restaurants and parties they'd be stunned at how many more fans and families especially would be willing to show and not tailgate
I like your wording better and agree with the rest.

Bills gameday experience is garbage. Way too many people treat it like a fraternity party. This only caters to a small demographic of fans.

Nice idea, but too slow and way too much blathering from the FBI guy. I was asleep less than 30 minutes in. No way you need six hours to tell this story.
I thought this way at first but the last episode (4) changed my mind. It was the best episode so far and brought a whole new storyline. Overall the series is entertaining but I wouldn't classify it as great.

Yup without a doubt.
