Yeah, this is fucking retarded.
So, we have downsizing, in Afghanistan. US soldiers are getting sent home to be replaced by security contractors that cost 4x as much so we can play the numbers games; "We're pulling troops out!" And spending a fucking fortune on contractors. There are already more contractors here than there are soldiers. So fucking retarded. ![]() |

Seeing things like this make me hate the country I live in. I thought we pay police officers with our tax dollars to serve and protect us? Not run around pepper spraying people that do not need to be sprayed. Seriously, can't they use their time doing something useful like finding murderers and arresting rapists? ![]() ask me about mpreg |

Started a program due Friday this evening and goddammit it's going to be harder than I fucking thought jesus shit why didn't i start this last week.
On a related note I also hate regexes and TA's that decide the input file format is going to be shitty and stupid with all sorts of braces and commas and no fucking line breaks. |

Please note that most of the cops are like most of the protestors. They're not there to start shit, they just want to protect the people and the landmarks, and they get paid hourly with overtime through all these protests, because they have union representation.
Those guys in the white uniforms are supervisors. They don't have overtime. They don't have a union. They're salaried management and they are feeling the most pressure from the City to get this taken care of. They don't see themselves as having anything in common with the protestors. And they don't have to walk a beat after this is over. Dox got dropped on the one white-collar cop who was behind most of the violence. Thanks, Anon. |

The guy in the white uniform is pretty internet famous right now. Apparently he is a senior NYPD police officer. I'm not sure if I'm seeing the "most cops are like the protesters" from this particular protest as they are certainly not protecting the people by brutalizing the protesters. There are many videos showing the guys in "regular uniforms" using excessive force while making arrests. I've been to the very large protests here in Madison last year and have never witnessed or heard of this type of behavior from our police. Our protests were similar to the ones in NYC, with people walking through the streets chanting and waving signs. The only difference is that we didn't get beat up for peacefully protesting :/ ![]() ask me about mpreg |

Cops should be out there stopping gangs, catching murderers, running sting operations, and preventing riots instead of investigating noise complaints in the cold, hard streets of middle upper class suburbia.
I'm quite sure that interpretations of what "protectors and regulators" (alcohol is a regulated substance, no?) vary depending from person to person and what part of society you are asking. ![]() ![]() |

Yeah, I'll freely admit the actions of cops can suck sometimes. Still I'd much rather live with the consequences of having cops than the consequences of not having them.Â

Namely punishing adolescents (or anyone) for substance abuse because you're trying to protect them. Now, obviously drugs like meth and crack greatly hurt communities and raise crime but it's clear that our current system isn't working. ![]() |

Arrrrrrgggggg.... why does nothing with this deployment go smoothly?!? First he's going, no, he's not going, he's going, he's not going. And now it's, he's coming home early, he's staying longer, he's coming home early, he's staying longer. Would you guys just make up your minds so I can have an accurate countdown?! :p
