They should. Every law enforcement officer in the country should.NorthwestFresh said:So do we? need cops, or do we? not need cops? Sounds like Minneapolis police may go on strike.
They won't because they're not wired that way. But the new young ones might.

And what about one's neighbors'? My friends business was just destroyed. My other friend's home was threatened this week and they are now leaving their cars at my house because they don't want them torched or flipped. Do I have to wait until the mob comes to my house or can I organize for defense with these people?GrundleStiltzkin said:
It's very simple. Protect yourself and property, e.g., one's rights. Don't interfere with anyone else's rights. I personally detest protesting of any stripe, but I defend people's right to do so. If this shit strays into pre-emptive action like blocking people from coming into town or whatever, problems happen. Sitting in your front lawn is almost certainly going to be enough.WestlinnDuck said:
Yes. Leave it up to the police. That's the conundrum. We should leave it up to the police. But when they don't or aren't allowed to take care of a problem, sometimes someone else will try to take care of it.GrundleStiltzkin said:PM to good or bad people on both sides: Vigilantism is dumb. Don't do it.
I see your point don't twist, but it's not as clear cut and dry out here in the city sprawl of California. -
The Buffalo Emergency Response Team all resigned today. Still all members of the Buffalo PD but they said "fuck that shit" after the old man getting knocked down controversy.Sledog said:

Isn't that the premise for Robocop 2?NorthwestFresh said:So do we? need cops, or do we? not need cops? Sounds like Minneapolis police may go on strike.

That shouldn't have happened but I can tell you police don't allow their personal space to be invaded. But they should have seen him for the crazy old guy he was.PurpleThrobber said:

I don't disagree. It wouldn't have hurt if the cop dude took one step to the left instead of colliding with him but if you're going to play on the freeway, I don't have much sympathy if you get run over by a semi-truck.Sledog said:

Some shit is just common sense.

Fatigue probably didn't help. Anytime trouble like this comes police switch to 12 hrs on and 12 off. No days off until it's over. Real bad? 16 hour shifts.
