Don't mind. I'm flattered.

But it isn't really about the where. It would be so much easier to find an answer if it was.

I do have to wonder why they're assigning new graduates to high-crime areas. That seems like a big problem waiting to happen - a brand new officer with no real practical experience patrolling "bad" neighborhoods? High stress and critical, split-second, life and death decision making shouldn't be part of a rookie's first day or two.

This factor is continually gnawing at the back of my mind as regards the NYC case, and I can't shake it, so I am plopping it on your thread, Flav, hope you don't mind

NYPD graduates diverse class of cops, who will work in city's roughest areas

The 607 graduates form one of the most diverse classes in the NYPD's history. Fifty-one percent of the class is black, Latino or Asian, and women make up 20%. The new cops will be assigned to high-crime areas.

I read similar stories in 2013 and 2012 etc. etc., This change in the NYPD, it not just upon us this year.

Those of us that are New Yorkers know that Staten Island, where Eric Garner died, is the least like all the other boroughs culturally. It is sort of addressed in this new New York Daily News article:

Grief and loss troubles Staten Island street where Eric Garner died

by Denis Hamill, Dec. 4/5, 2014

[....] Tran Scarlett, 44, stood outside a Spanish restaurant, dark eyes peering from under a black skullcap.

“I testified at the grand jury,” he says. “I was a witness. The DA was respectful. The grand jury listened. But I grew up here on Staten Island, in the Jersey St. projects, same place Eric lived. I used to box out of Park Hill projects. With the toughest guy Staten Island ever saw, named Johnny Verderosa. But Staten Island has no fight left in it. So don’t expect no Ferguson here. There’s no unity in the black community in Staten Island. Look around, everybody’s just scraping by.

"Not all the cops are bad. But what that cop did to Eric was murder. ... Eric had just broken up two fights. One between two ladies. Then one between two guys. A peacemaker. Me, I'm a fighter so I know a nonfighter. Eric never harmed a soul. So when that cop choked him to death like that, right there on the sidewalk, it was murder.”

He told that to the grand jury?

“I did,” he said, glancing at Eric Garner’s memorial. “But I knew just looking at them that they were never gonna indict a cop. Not here. Not for killing a black guy in Staten Island.”

Certainly a legitimate

Certainly a legitimate question. I had fully anticipated that it would be raised but with Hitler as the example. But that doesn't mean I have an answer.

Joke:

Christ and the Virgin walking together came upon a crowd (of men, of course) preparing to stone a woman caught in adultery.

Christ: Let whoever among you who is without sin throw the first rock.

A stone whizzes past him

Christ: "MOM !"

Cops:You are being charged

Cops:You are being charged with conspiracy to defraud people

Co conspirator: I paid for protection, you need to go back to your bosses and stop bothering me.

Because ,Never is how often we should execute guilty criminals. Black ,white, brown, green or purple.

Except I think you are forgetting about murderers and other serious offenders, who are already incarcerated ?

These hardened criminals,still run their operations from behind the walls and they don't mind ordering the execution of innocent people.

Some members of society have become sheeple, easily preyed upon because the shepherds have become to lax or uncaring.

We could fix that by just killing some more whites. That would be fair..

Fair, but wrong.

Hmmm, well maybe. How about this?

We have e-mails that show you're involved in a conspiracy to defraud people by selling derivatives you know are worthlessBANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

cop: His hands were under his desk. I thought he had a gun.

It is morally wrong. Just

It is morally wrong. Just like hanging a person from a tree. Who can really justify it?
