    You missed the point.

    Fuck giving this officer that presumption of innocence when he didn't give that to the HERO who was preventing violence.

    Bottom line, you fuck up badly at your job you get fired.

    AT BEST this cop fucked up badly.

    That's all I'm saying. He may have just fucked up. I don't know. Nobody does, certainly not yet.

    Cops fuck up all the time. So do dentists and doctors and lawyers and any other career with human beings.

    I jump to conclusions just like everyone else but I won't be surprised if Avenatti is innocent. I'll be less surprised if he's guilty because he just strikes me as the violent temper type (takes one to know one)

    You fuck up and shoot somebody you should be prosecuted. Sorry. It's at least reckless endangerment.

    I don't know what he should get. I don't know why he did it.

    It sucks but the cop is in a really dangerous job and so was the security guard.

    I don't want either. If I could go back in time I'd be Frasier from Cheers. What a cake job that is.

    Man! Ain't that a fact!
    Rasheed that used to post in here before he was run off, got on with a police force. Dang, when I heard that, I didn't know whether to be please for him or not. It is what he was looking for, but....

    Most of the issues these guys have with police are really cause by policy issues. The Democrats control the police forces over most of this nation. S2 is full of those voters. And they wail about what they get!!!

    So, you're saying you're perfect in your approach and we're all flawed? Hmm, I've never heard this before.

    I don't want either job, also. That's yet another reason why I stayed in school and got a job in engineering. By the way, this was also the reason I had no interest in a medical career. Lot of disgusting blood and other medical gore.

    That bothered me when I was a kid and doesn't bother me at all now. I like watching surgery videos.

    He's absolutely correct.

    I think I'd rather drink Flint Michigan water than Portland water. There's something in it worse than lead.

    That’s not saying I’m perfect. I’m saying the OT section is filled with inconsistent logic. On one hand you got people upset about this yet nobody is outraged when a white guy gets killed by the police the same way. I’m just saying, if you’re gonna have a viewpoint, be consistent with it all around, but people pick and choose around here. A good reason why it hasbecome an echo chamber. Those with different opinions don’t like posting here very much anymore. People are logically inconsistent, a couple on the right are as well but it’s mostly the left here. People like me are labeled as “right wing” because I have some conservative view points but I also have viewpoints from the left. I would say equal viewpoints right and left. However I never said I wasn’t perfect, nobody is and if they claim to be, they are lying to themselves.

    For example. I don’t like Donald trump very much but he’s definitely somebody people here are over dramatic about. He’s apparently racist because he hasn’t gone after black people in entertainment and so on. The narrative is spun into “here’s trump going after another black person”. Trump hasn’t gone after tons of white people such as Rosie o donnel, Ted Cruz, stormy, etc. the list really goes on. He’s just an asshole. It’s how he is. Yet the same side spins it to make it look like he’s racist. Oh and they also still claim he grabs women without consent because they wanna play dumb and act like they have never heard guys talk like that such as in the infamous pussy grabbing audio clip. People are just playing stupid to fit the narrative. I don’t give a shit about trump but when it comes to him at least be logically consistent with it.

    Yeah! It's been 123 years now, water has been flowing into town through that first cast iron pipeline. Cast in Oswego out of whatever junk they could find. It may have prevented the trots & typhoid, but who knows.

    Well you can ask what the hell that means, but as near as I can see by the application, it mean everyone other than Democrat or Socialist. It is meant to be divisive with little meaning beyond that purpose.

    I think your statement speaks for itself. However, I don't think it's such a big deal that it's worthy of a lengthy exchange.

    I just dont get how this happened. Surely any security guard with the authority to brandish a firearm is dressed accordingly with a badge, uniform ect. This cop fucked up big time. That dude was a hero.

    Cops tried to claim he wasn't in uniform. The witnesses say he was. Common sense says the cops are just making stuff up.
