I stand by my opinion that making a dog become a cop is inhumane to the dog. The dog deserves better if you're gonna make them have a job, like smelling old people for cancer, or helping people with vision impairments. You know, useful things.

What do we call 200 people who sit together with 20 Fascists?
Just waiting for Trump to not pay this like all his other bills and watch as the legal system decides to fine him for not paying fines because they don't have the balls to put him in a cell.
All I can offer her is anecdotal evidence heard from retired officers but they made it sound like this is a problem in every department. Maybe not to the same degree everywhere, but in general bad things happen to people who follow the rules when the rules implicate wrongdoing on the part of another officer. Weather that's shunning, teasing, pranks, being assigned to only specific duties or shifts, or worse is gonna depend on the situation. The impression I got was this was commonplace and most officers understand the unwritten rule to not report thing little things (and sometimes even the big things) that could get a fellow officer in trouble. It works too because at the end of the day you gotta entrust your life to the people you ratted on, people who know how to make things look like accidents and have a network of people that will vouch for them.

These one, oldies but goodies. If you take verbal abuse out of the equation the number drops 12 points to 28% instead of 40% and that's the biggest 'controversy' I remember about these numbers. But I don't think abuse thats only verbal helps someone think about their spouse as a good guy so imo the whole number is useful for this case. Theres also a strong bias in favor of the cops as its an observed phenomenon that cases of anything against cops, especially Domestic Violence, don't often go very far, there are very real blind spots in the justice system for cops.
Some women I know in this position believe they're somehow different or better than the people who the cops treat like animals and that it would never happen to them, only to the undesirables that deserve it. Over 40% of them are wrong according to statistics.
Thats not even unrealistic to me when I remember the fact Gazas been bombed more in two weeks that Afghanistan ever got in a full years time. Afghanistan has a land area of a quarter of a million square miles and Gaza has an area of under 150 square miles.
Shit like this is no small part of why I'd sooner serve crack that serve in the military. And there's not a single drop of sarcasm in that statement.
Tough cookies Jack, better vote for him again so he can invade Haiti in his second term.
Glad even the title is questions their status as 'moderates' because I really don't think those exist anymore in the republican party. If you really want to find a moderate conservative, you can find plenty in the democratic party.
