Nobody kills more black men then other, non police, black men. Where is the outcry on this? It is absolutely wrong for black men to be wrongly killed by cops - but why doesn't anyone care about the black on black violence in our society?
Exactly.
But speaking as a former LEO myself, I'm not sure I like this idea. Specifically, we have a "blue alert" and people show up. Are they good guys who are trying to help -- or more folks who wanna kill cops?
No way to know.
Just for the record - one of the reasons why I stopped being a LEO was because I thought that the country was moving toward dictatorship extremely fast. I'm rather surprised we didn't get it with Obama - he was way too slick.
You might be interested to find out that when not in uniform as an agent of the state, a bunch of the NG are those fat rednecks in tactical vests.
Sheesh. Learn something about people. Get out of San Fran or whatever blue enclave you live in and look at the country.
Then again, please, stay where you are, you may do less harm there.
Gee, and left wingers wonder why we right wingers are suspicious of government and dont' want to give any data out. BTW the Germans did this with religious data as well during WWII.
Define productive.
Yes, in a good workday you might only get 3 really good hours of productive work - but there's ab unch of other scutt work that needs doing like administrivia that also consumes time.
I daresay that the definition of 'productive' matters.
Indeed. My statement would be "Do not buy internet connected devices." meaning, of course, thermostats etc. as computers with internet connections are by design and are typically shut off when not in use.
I rather thought it was the Democrats that added AFDC etc. to the social security trust fund - and that it was Clinton who "invested" the surplus in T-bills. It's not just Republicans, it's both of them.
Indeed. And I can't understand why there's this myth that somehow computer code is separate from humans- if anything it's a static representation of the ideas and beliefs of the developer when he or she wrote it.
While I see your point --
The fact that we have become a nation where folks can have NO social or family network because everyone is expected to move every 2 or 3 years to get a new job is a huge definition of insanity.
No wonder half the nation is on psychiatric meds.
It's as odd as the backup generators for Fukushima were in a basement in an area prone to tsunamis, unlike the ones at fukushimi daiini, which were in the containment building.
Believe me, I'm no fan of what we've got at the moment. I was merely making an observation. Of course, the biggest thing I wonder is "Why do so many people "need" lifestyle medications ?" But that's another conversation.
This was what I was going to say, you beat me to it. Let's see, worship the state (check), no room for dissent (check), advocated killing people who disagreed with him (check). Sounds like American liberals to me! (Who aren't 'liberals' at all as they do not have free minds or free markets)

You can do similar in the USA - this is just lunacy
I agree with this one!
SJWs are basically nihilists. They want destruction, as near as I can tell.

Thank you, someone who knows history. The revisionist bozos of today are just amazing.

I suppose it is no different than seeing professional athletes as priests in cleats, as we seem to...
I'm sorry we didn't let the Germans keep France.

Perhaps if employees were not treated like disposable commodities they'd be willing to be less risk averse.
Sorry I meant "If this has been happening since 2004 why was nothing done then?"

It also requires smart people in management, something the USA lacks. "Like, wow, man, I'm gonna get how much in stock options?"

Yeah it's like Obama calling the attack on fort hood "workplace violence."
Capitalism involves rule of law and 2 willing parties making a deal. What we have at the moment is cronyism and socialism.
Perhaps, but then why was nothing done about it? Could it be that most were liars and gold diggers? I Have no idea.
