LOL - did you find it yet?

Sacamuelas 03-07-2004 23:27

I'm back...... :D

NousDefionsDoc 03-07-2004 23:28

Why does it have that crappy white background? LOL

Sacamuelas 03-07-2004 23:31

Give me time... some power crazy admin deleted my last one. I will eventually find the one that I had before... :p

NousDefionsDoc 03-07-2004 23:34

I guess if I'm going to do things, I should learn to undo 'em too...naaaw!

Yet another lesson learned! :boohoo

Who would have ever thought that a couple of SF guys and a fast internet connection could teach such a number of non-SF guys so many things?

I hope WM is watching The Sopranos closely for object lessons about messing with the Boss on his turf.

And on that note, I will retire. Good night for real.

FBI set a sting, rounded up every member of the crew. The rest of the season will be courtroom drama. heh...

The first episode is very slow. Hopefully, a healthy dose of Steve Buschemi will move things along. The man is a brilliant, yet creepy, actor.

You did not miss much. Hopefully, the second episode will have a bit more fluidity.

How can anyone declare war on Woobie when his avatar is such a morale booster? Well, maybe not here, but elsewhere.

Do you really think that the LT shouted "Shoot him!", to his NCO sitting well away in the back of a pick-up truck with their only weapon being a disassembled M-4? I really doubt it.

After reading all of the accounts, and speaking with one of the participants, I believe that the command was much more likely to have been just, "Get the gun!" to keep the deputy from taking the issued weapon. I think the "Shoot him!" claim was part of the cover-up attempt.

I doubt they said "shoot him," but "get the gun" isn't that much better. I don't take either side in this case because I don't have enough info.

(Just some background:Godfather was SF (Reserves) and attended FBI Nat'l Academy before becoming Chief of Police in Boulder City, NV. Father was Lt. on local police, cousin was SAC ATF, and brother's are local Deputy Sheriff's.)

If all five of them were involved in this particular stop I don't feel they would have let it get to the point of shooting. But let's say it did get to that point.

If you hear "get the gun" it does not mean you have to shoot, but as a LE officer, prudence would dictate that you draw your weapon, right?

I think the officer may have let this get out of hand. The SF candidate('s) thought this was part of the Pineland exercise, right? That is the shame of it.

It may well be a warranted shooting based on the "get the gun" comments, however, this could have been handled much better by the officer.

Having a badge does not entitle a person to act like an a-hole. None of my relatives in LEO are like that, but unfortunately more than a few of their fellow officers are. I don't know the officer, but it smells like he may fall into a 10% category.
