what is this lollipop you speak of?By the lollipop?

It's a traffic circle. And yeah i had to roll through it on occasion. Wasn't fucking fun.what is this lollipop you speak of?
Gotcha, we were the EOD teams security so we were literally all over AL anbarFOB Sabre. The Airstrip. We rolled up to the northern palace and did patrols along the bridges.
Who would want to be a cop unless you have a passion for it? It's a thankless job where you are overworked and underpaid. Nearly every encounter with civilians is shitty. Every day people are lying to you, you have to see some heinous shit in the way people live and behave. It's not an easy job. It's always high stress and you need to possess the ability to use good judgement in those high stress situations while making split second decisions that could mean life and death for you and/or others. And police much like those from any profession can be dirtbags as well but they are the tiny, tiny minority.Part of the issue is we need to look at who actually wants to be a cop. And why are cops so quick to resort to violence.
I was 2/3 ACR Sabre Squadron. Al Anbar was my home for a grip. What years were you there again?Gotcha, we were the EOD teams security so we were literally all over AL anbar
I hold good cops in the highest of esteem. I don't mean passable or serviceable cops, but truly good cops.Who would want to be a cop unless you have a passion for it?

if you keep it mostly full, we'll take care of it. that sounds like the part where they want police to step in.
let me guess, you love you some fox news, right?Oh brother joe rogan and ding dong news give me a break it is a business get over it
What do you mean when you say ding dong news? Never heard that before.Oh brother joe rogan and ding dong news give me a break it is a business get over it
Better than rogan you have an issue with that?let me guess, you love you some fox news, right?
So you are saying most of the prisoners are there unfairly?What do you mean when you say ding dong news? Never heard that before.
Get over what? The fact that we have a intrinsically corrupt business system existing in "the land of the free" that incarcerates people to line the pockets of the already super rich? No, thank you.
the young turks is by far more reputable than foxBetter than rogan you have an issue with that?
All it takes is a very small amount of research before uncovering many, many reports of a very large margin of low education minorities being targeted by police for nonviolent crimes, mostly minor drug offenses. Do i think that's fair? No. I believe that what a person does in the privacy of their own home that has no harmful effect on others around them should be reason to incarcerate them. Especially when you consider how, where, and why those particular individuals are being targeted.So you are saying most of the prisoners are there unfairly?

One of the unsung benefits of PTSD.Listen i am not trying to change your polictical views so don't bother with me the fact is the thread cops are really a problem if you give them a problem, i would dare say some on this thread have had run ins with the cops judging on the overall view of all cops fine thats your view, i disagree so lets move on i am going back to mma as i really have no issue with cops, i shoot with cops weekly they are my friends they have no agenda other than getting home each night.

I never said rob, or sell dope. Also, mocking something doesn't make it any less true.Oh the liberal line of i am poor so i can rob sell dope but don't arrest me. Boo hoo quote truman lol
All drug users are evil and deserve to be locked up, but this thread is giving me a headache, so I'm going to take a paracetamol. I want to have a clear head for when I have a drink later.Oh the liberal line of i am poor so i can rob sell dope but don't arrest me. Boo hoo quote truman lol
i was friends with the cop that killed two people. we did a couple seminars together for the local swat teams a few years before the first one happened. i've not been in any trouble with cops.Listen i am not trying to change your polictical views so don't bother with me the fact is the thread cops are really a problem if you give them a problem, i would dare say some on this thread have had run ins with the cops judging on the overall view of all cops fine thats your view, i disagree so lets move on i am going back to mma as i really have no issue with cops, i shoot with cops weekly they are my friends they have no agenda other than getting home each night.

I've never been arrested either. Hell one of my uncles is a state trooper (his son, my cousin is as well), and i have another uncle that's a sheriff's deputy.i was friends with the cop that killed two people. we did a couple seminars together for the local swat teams a few years before the first one happened. i've not been in any trouble with cops.
a state trooper owned a gym i used to go to, and he was an extremely nice guy. he used to be a marine, and he told me that the physical test was harder for him, than boot camp. did you hear anything like that? it may be because he was over a decade older when he took his trooper test. i also don't know if each state's different, or the same.I've never been arrested either.

Well, none of my family members also served in the military so they never made the comparison to me. You said your homie was a marine so let's see.a state trooper owned a gym i used to go to, and he was an extremely nice guy. he used to be a marine, and he told me that the physical test was harder for him, than boot camp. did you hear anything like that? it may be because he was over a decade older when he took his trooper test. i also don't know if each state's different, or the same.
i'd guess he was having a time with the running. he's still in great shape for an older fellow, build wise, so it must have been a cardio problem.Well, none of my family members also served in the military so they never made the comparison to me. You said your homie was a marine so let's see.
