The Law Enforcement Officer Thread

Go To

Ok it was mentioned there is not a thread for Law Enforcement Officers (LEO for short)and other similar jobs for discussion.

This is for discussing the actual jobs, ranks, training, culture, relations to military bodies that exist, and any other variety of topics that can arise pertaining to the World of Policing.

Regarding the marijuana farms, yeah, if they were legal farms, their pesticide use could be regulated. You don't generally worry about safety inspectors showing up to check your paperwork if the inspectors don't know you exist. I understand many top-secret government research places like Area 51 traditionally have the same problem, since nobody at OSHA has the clearance to get in and look around.

Also, I can't help but Face Palm at the idea of the baddies apologizing for wrongfully (by their own admission) kidnapping the woman, but insisting that she pay them for the costs of the kidnapping like it was her clerical error that lead to the associated costs. Fucking amateur hour.

Few months ago, Indonesian peacekeepers are accused of running a smuggling racket. Indonesian police are working with the UN in Darfur to check the allegations.

The TMPD is in full force in conducting security checks for the upcoming Ariana Grande concert in Chiba IIRC.

Among the security measure enforced is to leave your things at the nearest coin locker or use a transparent bag so that the police can easily check them.

A Virginia State Police helicopter crashed Saturday in Albermale County, Virginia, near the city of Charlottesville, where a violent white nationalist rally was taking place.

The Bell 407 helicopter crashed seven miles southwest of Charlottesville, the FAA confirmed to CBS News. There are two confirmed fatalities, the Virginia State Police posted on their Facebook page. Both the people killed were on board.

The whole thing is a fucking mess. Three killed and many more injured. A nazi drove a car into the crowd of counter protesters.

They brought guns, mace, body armor, sledgehammers and shields. They attacked counter protestors for a while before moving onto police. After the crowds started getting broken up you had them running around trying to club any minority they could get their hands on.

The governor has declared a state of emergency.

It's a full scale riot over there.

It looks like the info The Wanderer laid out earlier at the start of the post on the last page lays out that this obviously isn't the first time it has happened.

The NPA in Japan reports that a potential gang war is starting with the Yamaguchi-gumi, the Kobe Yamaguchi-gumi (Its offshoot) and the latter having its members create their own group.

The groups have problems in getting money through legit channels.

Obviously the mere existence of the left is the cause of the violence upon this man.

If it didn't exist he wouldn't have done that.

[up]Actually it's not Insane Troll Logic, it's just a standard false-flag operation. His goal was to discredit anti-fascists by associating them in the public mind with people who stab others over their hair style. And sadly it'll probably work.

Sounds like a police chase went down, suspect was killed and another driver hurt. Maybe hoping he was impaired to clear their own asses.

Either way, the officers involved should probably be fired based on their contempt for the law alone, to say nothing of an unlawful arrest.

Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects.
