    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    Time to eat some Crow SlapChop. Imagine my surprise when I changed the channel and CNN was discussing this shooting. Seems there have been some flat out lies surrounding this shooting. There was NO GRAND JURY. NONE. The DA simply read the statements from the police and accepted them as...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I'm sorry for the loss of one of your friends. Just to point out, this is the only post I have waded in on in ages. Usually I lurk. For some reason watching the video that started this whole dialog really struck me and not in a good way. Therefore, I voiced an opinion which I think was...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    This makes sense and I appreciate you taking the time to explain, without flaming or name calling. Your question is fair and I will answer it below. I came to my conclusion based on the idea that LEO's were putting an emotional/Physical barrier between the public and themselves, in order to...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I only was wrong in calling the armored vehicle a tank. I voiced and opinion and you flamed me for it. You could have made a good impression, like Victory and 1time and pointed out that the militarization that I was pointing out was NOT due to Active Shooter Training. In that case I would...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    "I have a Badge, what you have to say is invalid and Christ must be disappointed in you, so Shut the fuck up and get in line Sheep." I did not make up one thing in any of my posts. This discussion was over before it began. However, you did a great job of demonstrating my point of hostility...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    So why the clear change in attitude of police towards those they are hired to serve? Why the progression to being more military like? Compare the LEO from 10 years ago to now. Do you see the difference? I do. It does not seem like a good thing to me.

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    Just as I suspected, you are unable or unwilling to actually discuss the topic at hand. You would rather question my knowledge and throw out bullshit like "you opinion carries little to no weight..." or " I would come off like a complete buffoon trying to hold my own in a conversation about...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I will again address the fact that you have yet to address the possibility that excessive "active shooter" training could be creating a situation where the police are being to trained to look at all citizens as the next Sandy Hook killer when these situations are NOT the norm. I am curious why...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I guess this has deteriorated to personal attacks but I guess that is to be expected given the fact that a citizen is questioning police motivation, purpose and role. I only commented at first because I was appalled by the video of police murdering a guy and then continuing to attack him after...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I am NOT attacking officers. I am simply concerned that the intense focus on "Active Shooters" is going to cause problems down the road.

    I suspect Photoshop had something to do with this photo.

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    A - I know what a tank is. I simply questioned WHY a town like this (low crime) needs a vehicle like this. B - I didn't go over and listen in on uniformed officers. They were in civilian clothes AND talking so loud that the whole room heard since it was a small venue. Contrary to the...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I'm not wound tight. I'm concerned at what is going to be an increasing problem. It is a fundraising event with kids present. It sets a bad image to see a group of adults standing around playing with finger guns talking about how they would engage some attacker. If it wasn't the police...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    Too add to my post above... Went to a Duck Unlimited event over the weekend. A bunch of local Officers where there (City PD, Town Marshal, Sheriff and State Patrol). Guess what they were all doing, during the banquet. Standing in a circle finger gunning from SUL to pointing in while...

    Maggie’s Excessive force? Maybe? Maybe not?

    I don't post much and I don't get involved with "terse situations". That being said Murder is what comes to mind. If I was on the jury it would be guilty guilty guilty on all but the dog. Sadly, I feel this will happen more and more as our police are turned from a focus on public assistance...
