Justified?

[derrick ikwueme]

what people seem to not realise is that the military & police departments are a friendly place for sociopaths and psychopaths. And dudes who genuinely just want to kill some shit. Just like my friend that joined the army just to shoot crazy shit like LAWS, some dudes join just to kill people. And most dudes go from the military to police jobs. That's why so many cops are introverted and socially disconnected. It's not just the job, sometimes it's just them. Dog, Disabled human, and perhaps some pets when he was a kid ?

Trill....


...there's always gonna be those type of people. We are humans that are imperfect...deal with the bad ones as they come by. but dont be suprised, if he doesnt lose his job after now showing his true colors. Its all part of the movie...

Damn...I'm glad I live in Norway.
There just seems to be too much of this in the states.
I mean, of course, you don't exactly get a nuanced picture of the police through
corporate media, but there's little debating it when you see videos like this.
You would think the police officers had better training than to go off whenever someone
was shouting something to them.
Crazy...

True that!
No, we don't have any of this in Norway.
On the downside, we do have polar bears roaming the streets :'(

Well, we do have officers who, from time to time, use excessive force, but they're
not allowed to carry firearms here, so people don't get killed when they do.

I might be wrong here, but from my experience with dogs if a dog's gonna attack you
then it won't stop in front of you barking first. It's just gonna jump at you.
Either way, this was a disaster. Like you pointed out, why couldn't they just let him
mouth off and then leave? Instead they behaved like ordinary punks who got their egoes
hurt outside a club.

Most cops are cowards that got there asses kicked in school and now they walk around with chips on there shoulders, pumped with steroids, & Guns. Plus the sociopaths & psychopaths that join. Just a bad mix.

My experience is that a lot of people become a cop because its a good job and you only have to do a semester of community college. Many of them want to do good by becoming a cop, some are bitter that though they felt like a important person in high school, they see that was worthless in the real world and want to keep some kind of social power. A cop told me once that as police officer you mostly deal with the worst of humanity on a daily basis. That makes guys bitter about people in general and starts them down a dark road. When a well intentioned rookie comes on the force they adopt the prevalent attitude quickly. Police need better psychological screening, periodic re-screenings and most importantly IQ tests. It would be nice if they kept their guns in their car until needed, thats what police forces in the worlds greatest nations do.

Honestly, this is weird to say but if it weren't for cannabis laws I would have become a fish and game warden. I feel its the job I was born for but I simply cant enforce unjust laws or abide by them myself.

Found this one on 9gag.
Good to see these things don't go by unnoticed.

Aaron - I think you have a fair point.
I think both teachers and cops need to have
periodic screenings. As soon as they show signs of
being worn out they should have some mandatory
group sessions or something, to keep them from
joining the dark side.

I fucking HATE cops.

We have good cops on the forum and I have some as training partners as well. So this mass generalization is always extreme and wrong.

However, I sympathize and agree to a large extent. It is a position of huge power that we will give to just about anybody. I agree with Aaron 100%. Stricter screening and requirements along with consistent counseling by qualified PhDs, and higher pay for meeting and upholding these requirements. Also they should train jj. All the cops that do this are good cops that I've met and I don't think it's coincidence. It's healthy for the ego and soul.

Unfortunately, many are egocentric power trippin sociopaths that belong no where near power and weapons.
