Thank You !

                         I salute you and apologize for the mess we've made of your country !

Many fought and died for this great nation and I can't believe what has happened to it in the last few years.  

I was surprised when Donald Trump actually won the election and even more surprised when he actually followed through and made America better, even if the left would have you believe otherwise. It also was apparent to me that he should have won a second term, but for a great cabal of leftist socialists, that highjacked the election.

Now they are in charge whether the rest of us like their ideas or not. Quit frankly most everything I see coming from them is tearing the country apart. Some things even seem to me as being      

                                                        TREASONISTIC.

How can any government implement programs and laws that clearly endanger the well being of the country they swore to support without an outcry from the people in general. This country is filled with good honest people that want what's best for all, no matter what political party they belong to but I hear nothing from anyone.

The only ones speaking out are the talking heads at Fox news and the guests they have on, but the only remedy they speak of is voting the left out of office in 2022, Is that our only hope !

Do politicians have some kind of immunity from prosecution if they commit crimes against the country ? Are they not held to the same standards as the rest of us ?

I hope someone can stop this madness before we lose what our founding fathers gave us.

Quote of the day !

 "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms . . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes . . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." ~ Thomas Jefferson

You need self defense training more now than ever

You need self defense training more now than ever

never fear an attacker again !

best training

Thanks for having my back !

 

Some of use still appreciate what you do, despite the few that need to work on their people skills.

No Respect !

The problem is not racism, it's lack of respect !

The lack of respect for law and the persons that enforce that law is the problem behind the suspect/officer confrontations that are ending in death for suspects.

Resisting arrest only gets another charge added to your record and almost never gets you free from prosecution, and some times you end up dead. Why is it that persons of color are the only ones who haven't learned that yet. Hispanics, Middle Eastern and all other racial sects have no problem when  

they get arrested by police, but some black persons just can't except the fact and try to escape and end up injured or dead, and there is always a bunch of people that want to blame the officer rather than see it for what it is and understand that resisting arrest does not end well for anybody and especially the suspect.

This comes from a segment of this society, inclusive of the whole culture, that was not taught to take responsibility for their own actions. Own It ! You reap the result whether good or bad from what you do.

Now our Government is rewarding these people for acting out, adding to the problem. If we ever hope to correct this a lot of people will have to look inward and realize that they are the reason for the problems in their lives and not someone else. This is a very hard thing to do and many won't even go there, instead they will continue to blame every other thing or person for their position in life, not understanding that it won't change until they except the fact and make changes in how they are handling their lives.

There are changes in law enforcement that could be implemented but you can't stop them from arresting law breakers or putting themselves in any more danger than they deal with on a daily basis.

One such example is the shooting in Columbus, Ohio. I grew up there and understand what the officers deal with daily. The officer was alone and was confronted with an "assault with a deadly weapon" in progress with several agitated people gathered around and before he could get control had to assess and make a life and death decision in 9 seconds to shoot or not, knowing he could not reach the assailant before she stabbed the other person to possibly wrestle the weapon away from her, or before anyone else joined in the altercation to cause even more injury or death.  The officer did exactly what he was trained to do, protect lives and get control of the situation! 

It's clear the young woman was angry and wasn't concerned with what her action was going to cause and now her family grieves and the officer is going to have to live with this fact for the rest of his life.

All because someone did something in anger without thinking it through. BE RESPONSABLE !

The problem !

 

Why the confrontations with Police ?

To start with there is a small faction of African/Americans, who for what ever reason, don't respect the rule of law and those that have to administer it. This faction has it's reasons and to a great extent they are valid and need addressed if we are ever to get to a level playing field.

This faction causes a unique set of problems that law enforcement has yet to address at the staffing level. That is, physical presence. 50 years ago you would be hard pressed to find a law enforcement officer shorter than 6 ft. and 250 lb. kind of football linebacker size, that had intimidation factor going for them but, due to the shortage of qualified personnel the standards were lowered to allow smaller people to enter the force.

These people, male or female, have a place in law enforcement but without the intimidation factor they are more apt to be involved in some type of physical confrontation with a subject that is bigger and stronger plus likely not to respect the uniform enough to allow them to be arrested without a fight, even ending in death at times. All the sensitivity training in the world will not stop this even though less than 1% of those that resist ever get away and even those get caught at a later date.

The obvious solution is to hire bigger people to the force but with the current sentiment of some of the country, nobody of any size, wants anything to do with law enforcement in the areas that need it most.

Defunding the police is not the answer, just as more sensitivity training won't help [ anyone who thinks that, should ride with one on a Fri. or Sat. night and see what they have to deal with] although some training could be used in evaluating a suspects health at time of arrest to determine if maybe they should pass by the E/R on the way to booking to be sure the suspect is not having some type of serious health event that would preclude incarceration.

What I've stated here is a small part of getting this problem under control but it is a necessary one.

What's the police to do ?

 

What would they have our police do ? 

They stop someone breaking the law, maybe just a minor violation, they treat them with some respect but have to place them under arrest and take them to booking.  

The next thing you know the suspect is fighting with the officer and could become a threat to him and the people around him if he doesn't control the situation.

Usually no one gets hurt and the suspect is delivered to jail to stand trial but remember, the officer HAS to effect that arrest because the subject now has committed a felony by resisting, on top of the original charge that could have been just a fine.

Unfortunately, some times it takes a lot to get the person arrested but the officer legally can use as much force as necessary to do this, including shooting said suspect. Remembering that the officer is responsible for his gun and the safety of all the people around them so depending on how big and strong the suspect is can cause the officer to take severe measures pretty fast.

The alternative is every time a suspect resists the officer just pat him on the back and say "sorry, catch you when your feeling better". Pretty absurd don't you think ?  People have to understand that if they don't resist the won't get hurt. That being said, I feel that a lot of this is the suspect thinking he can resist and get through the fight, live to sue for police brutality and get a big cash reward after the media plays it up as a racial situation.

This won't stop until the people breaking the law stop resisting when they get caught and take responsibility for their actions but as liberal as some of the courts have become I don't see that happening soon and the way the police are being treated they may very well stop trying to arrest anyone who resists for fear of reprisal. 

Here We Go AGAIN !

           Train Your Police Officers BETTER !

First was George Floyd, although I still maintain that the submission technique used did not cause the death of Mr. Floyd, officer Chauvin used poor judgement with length of application and is now going to pay for his lack of proper training, but resisting arrest caused his death, and now the Floyd family gets to split $23,000,000 because the city is afraid of BLM and Antifa.

                                                                [ MOB RULE ]   😖

Second was Mr. Wright who was being arrested for a warrant of resisting arrest on another matter and of the 3 officers present, no one used proper procedure to effect a safe arrest as evident in the video from one officers body cam, and again, resisting arrest caused his death. 

As for the excuse that officer Potter could not tell the difference between a taser and her service weapon is shear B/S in my opinion and if she is unable to tell that difference under stress than she or anyone else has no business carrying a weapon because they are nothing alike and just the feel of the handle or the weight of either would tell you which you have in your hand plus the fact that she was looking right at it before she fired and while shouting Taser, Taser, Taser.

This tells me that the city and maybe a lot of cities, need to get a whole lot better at training their force because the old guard, well trained officers are quitting from lack of respect from the people they serve and now you have a new batch of people that don't understand it takes a certain mind set to be able to handle the responsibility that comes with that gun on your side and doing the job correctly.

 Lastly, as in 99 % of all these confrontations I have written about the last few years, as long as people resist there will be injury or death because the officer is mandated to make that arrest with whatever force necessary, up to and including deadly.

   STOP RESISTING  and you won't get hurt !
