This is a bit different than the current story. I find it hard to believe the dad was watching him and didn't notice something was amiss. That's...
Denny, by the way, since you're so good at google.... Google some articles related to child welfare (or services) and "ignored" or "warning signs" or...
Exactly. But don't tell this to VG or DC. And it sounds like that's what happened. They showed up, saw the kid, talked to him for a second, and it...
Duh - have you not read the thread? Start with google.
Yes, a toy gun v. a gun that even the dad looks very similar to a semi-automatic. Apples to apples, eh? I'm sure CPS/police took this much more...
Yes, because that's clearly what happened in this case.
No, but if you can see the kids with your own eyes, talk to them for a few minutes, you can feel a lot better about their safety.
Yeah. It's cool. You're on an entirely different level. Nobody is saying to use drones. Nobody is saying google everyone (well, it kinda seemed...
Because someone certified to handle guns has never used their training for bad intentions? The guy should find new friends.
If only we'd have googled Adam Lanza before he committed his crime - we'd have caught him with all the information on googl! Oh wait, no we wouldn't.
Yes, because he's going to tell CPS/police over the phone that he's a threat and/or his child is in danger. "Yes, officer. I understand. But no,...
So instead of just going to dude's house, we should try to google him and see what comes up? Because the information we find on google is...
You're taking it to an entirely extreme level, there. Far beyond the scope of this non-story/example. But just know that the government already...
I don't have anyone on FB that doesn't know me. And even then, I've limited access to a lot of my profile to everyone but a select few. If the...
They showed up, did a quick inquiry, and that was the end of the story. Until the dude bitched. Remember, they acted on a tip from a supposed...
This. Given the lack of privacy in today's world, people's tendencies to overreact (like the dad, himself, making this a big deal and pointing a...
Yeah, donkiez is right on this one, ToB. I've witnessed similar situations in HS, but I just assumed it was common sence (hence, the age-21 drinking...
This. As for your example of the cops.... I see no lying or intimidation there. I see a cop using common sense and was friendly enough that the...
It's true. I was generic, and I have cousins that live in the country that learned to shoot guns at a younger age. In general, in areas of greater...
How is that an argument against freedom? If it is, then we have no freedom, and we never had. As far back as Adam and Eve, we have the freedom to...
