Instead of Focused Initiative Team maybe they should more appropriately call it "Failures Intercoursing Ted" (Wheeler) or "Snowflake Hyperpartisan Initiative Team" --------------------------------------- It's like my brain's a tree and you're those little cookie elves. | |||

From what I saw, specialized units or assignments and task forces within police agencies were often staffed with ticket punchers and ass kissers who wanted their participation in these units to make them look good for promotion and internal politics. Chiefs and Mayors would often loudly announce the establishment of all these units, let them run a short time and then disband them, citing some pressing need elsewhere. I think this may be the case in Portland, since I think no cop in his right mind would want to join the "reimagined" GVRT. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

I have had the same experience as Yooper. We had a female added to the SWAT unit so they could be “diverse” even though the female wasn’t even out of Field Training and was required by policy to have two years experience in patrol before being allowed to try out for any specialized units. We had people who were not qualified,(not enough time in grade) thrown into a sergeants process in efforts to make it appear legit. The evaluators were from other departments and didn’t know that all the participants except one had the required time. And I worked for a nationally accredited department.

Some time ago in this thread we talked about Rayshard Brooks who was shot by police in Atlanta. After some grandstanding by the prosecutor, the officer who shot Brooks was eventually reinstated. Roadblocks were set up near the Wendy's where Brooks was shot. A woman drove thru and people "guarding" the roadblocks shot into the car and killed an 8 year old girl. Now we know who the "guards" were. https://hotair.com/john-s-2/20...-bloods-gang-n408774 Indictments in Secoriea Turner case reveal Rayshard Brooks was a member of the Bloods gang Last year an 8-year-old girl named Secoriea Turner was shot and killed by men who had set up roadblocks in the street near the Wendy’s restaurant where Rayshard Brooks was killed. The protesters who had taken over the site claimed the people with guns (the ones who shot Secoriea Turner) were not part of their group Today a Fulton County grand jury indicted two men involved in the shooting. According to prosecutors, both men were members of the Bloods gang and were manning the roadblock where Turner was shot because Rayshard Brooks was also a member of the Bloods gang. an attorney for Turner’s family: “We’re clearer now than we’ve ever been that this was absolutely preventable and did not have to happen but for the city surrendering a block, a neighborhood, to what has now been described as a gang.” “Her death would not have occurred but for the city’s surrender…of a certain part of the city to these armed, lawless elements.” Two people had been shot in the area before Secoriea Turner was killed. Police and the City Council knew about the roadblocks and it was widely reported that police weren’t doing anything about it. It wasn’t until 8-year-old Turner was killed that the Mayor finally said enough was enough. Why did it take so long and why isn’t anyone being held responsible? everyone was so afraid of offending BLM protesters that the police sat back and let gang members control the streets with rifles | |||

The ass-hattery in Portland knows no limits. Get rid of the guns and explosives and give these guys (and gals) swords and pikes. | |||

Portland had another riot yesterday. Proud Boys were in NE Portland; Antifa were by the waterfront, but then went to confront the Proud Boys ...... And Antifa removed evidence (spent casings) from a shooting... __________________________ More blessed than I deserve. http://davesphotography7055.zenfolio.com/f238091154 | |||

The riots are nothing compared to what happens daily here now. You are pretty much on your own here. | |||

Where's the "graphic content" the clip warns us about? What adult considers that "graphic"? | |||

You're supposed to be properly scared before viewing. Did you not achieve an appropriate level of anxiety?
