No one has suggested Rose, Blanche, Dorothy, or Sophia yet? What better name for a golden girl?

You’ve obviously never read any of his books. They are filled with fact. You, on the other hand, are full of *****. Man up. You talk the talk, you can walk the walk.

Lol.. not only an hour ago you were talking about how cops need to be trained in psychological tactics... and here you are bagging on LTC Grossman, who is a psychologist that trains cops. You really are a joke.

Thats because you are a selfish coward.

I would much rather go out like that, than live like you.

I agree that they asked too many times. Ask - tell - make. Repeatedly giving the same commands and hoping for a different response is poor tactic. Good luck in all your future endeavors. Might wanna avoid helicopters though.

So, just to clarify, you think asking the convicted felon with a gun hidden under his seat in pretty please tones is going to gain compliance? What world do you live in?

From the news that is shocking to no one (except the Minneapolis City Council) department: https://www.mprnews.org/story/2020/09/15/with-violent-crime-on-the-rise-in-mpls-city-council-asks-where-are-the-police ”But for much of the two-hour meeting, council members told police Chief Medaria Arradondo that their constituents are seeing and hearing street racing which sometimes results in crashes, brazen daylight carjackings, robberies, assaults and shootings. And they asked Arradondo what the department is doing about it. "Residents are asking, ‘Where are the police’?” said Jamal Osman, newly elected council member of Ward 6. He said he's already been inundated with complaints from residents that calls for police aren’t being answered.” “The number of reported violent crimes, like assaults, robberies and homicides are up compared to 2019, according to MPD crime data. More people have been killed in the city in the first nine months of 2020 than were slain in all of last year. Property crimes, like burglaries and auto thefts, are also up. Incidents of arson have increased 55 percent over the total at this point in 2019.”

If you get thirsty and need a bottle of water, or two... just let me know.

I know. It was a rhetorical question. He’s an example of the worst of us, mocking the death of one of the best of us. I’m willing to bet he harbors a certain amount of jealousy that Sgt Johnson had thousands honoring his memory at his funeral, with countless other standing roadside in honor of him... knowing full well, when his day comes, the pews will be empty and he will be forgotten and without a legacy.

Answer my question. What would you have done? and what about my post was funny?

This video is the perfect example to refute EVERYTHING that POS bullbuchanan claims cops to be. They did everything, practically begging that guy to comply. And, to their detriment. I’ve never seen that video until just now, and emotions are coursing through my blood right now - I’m sad at the sounds of a police officer screaming in terror. I’m angry that he gave up his life, and his family gave him up because of some worthless piece of ***** didn’t want to go back to jail. I’m scared because I’ve been in that exact situation many, many times before. Repeatedly threatening force, and hoping for compliance. In the end, all it does is make things worse. The bad guy formulates a plan. Stall and stall and stall. You can literally see it and hear it in his repetitive statements. That sergeant clearly didn’t want to use force. In the end, his hesitation to act cost him everything. Ask. Tell. Make. Easier said than done, because the vast majority of cops don’t want to use force. But, this video is a sad and terrible reminder of the ramifications when you don’t do it. RIP Sergeant Johnson.

Where are you hearing this? I hoping its accurate, but I dont see any info on it

So, what would you have done? You have professed expertise in de-escalation. What would you have done?

Lol i swear watching the replay of that play that Josh - for a split second - thought about tossing the ball at Anderson.

Dude, the cop told you to show and court and he would help you out. If you have the time, i would follow his suggestion. If he doesn’t show, you win. If he shows, hopefully he can work with you and get the fine knocked down or the points removed. The ticket clinic is a rip off (i have a good friend who is an attorney with them) unless you just flat out don’t have the time to go to court yourself. They won’t do anything that you can’t do yourself. if you have a horrid driving record, i’d prob just pay it. The judge can jack up your fine in court if they want to.

Is this at all related to the bicyclist/bike path thread? I think its important that we all understand so that we dont unwittingly become accessories after the fact of you mowing down a bicyclist that was hogging the road.

Lots of em in this video.

Unfortunately, I don’t think they care.... unless it costs them elections.

Honestly, I’m more offended by your grammar. But, carry on with your douchebaggery!

Because his/her perspective is that offensive to you? Nice! A+ rating, sir! Would buy again!

Kinda off topic but your post reminded me of watching the Notre Dame / Duke game today. These guys just got done playing 60 minutes of full contact football. They celebrated, screamed, and slapped each other’s butts. Yet, at the end of the game during ND’s traditional singing of the Alma Mater, the players were spread out across the field... and Tirico says “they need to remain socially distanced”. I just laughed. Seriously? Random rules, at random times. Makes no sense.

... and football? I’ll high five any of you guys in the stands at a Bills game.

Geeeez... do you know how much a man that size has to drink to get a BAC of .113? A lot!

They would, and they do. It’s just not covered with the same amount of veracity as 5 seconds of grainy video with no context.
