I'm PISSED

[Zundfolge]

Ugh ... don't get me started on CSPD.

If you have to deal with law enforcement in The Springs, pray to GOD its a Sheriff's deputy that shows up, not a CSPD clown (there are a few good guys on the force here, but for the most part I'm not impressed with the professionalism of the department in general ... not sure if I can find a copy of the story online about the "rampaging buffalo" but its indicative of the department).


EDIT
In searching I found a couple of forum threads that refered to the shooting and linked a story on The Denver channel (that is now dead).

120 rounds fired and ZERO of the buffalo were actually killed by CSPD (the guy from the packing company showed up with a lever gun in 30-30 and killed each of the buffalo with a single shot). Some of the homes and cars hit in the melee were at a 90deg angle to the officers so God only knows how they did that.

This is your new neighborhood watch captain. Let see the criminals and the police mess with a national icon (an armed one at that).




Sometime I think that cops act like high school kids. They follow behind whoever is being the biggest dick of the day.

If all the officers are calm and being cool the rest usually follow suit. If one is being a a**hole, the others will often be that way, or just do nothing and let the officer who is being a jerk lead the way.

I have never seen a police officer call out another officer even when they know they are out of line. They will usually just clam up and roll their eyes at him/her.

Ginsue, are you reading that thread I linked you to?

"Believe it or not, it is not even necessary for the person to be aware of the threat! You can be found guilty of menacing a sleeping person. The District Attorney would have to prove that you knew that your actions, if discovered (if the person woke up), would place the person in fear."

Oh my freaking GOD... you have to be kidding me...

Yeah, that part FLOORED me as well! Like I said, you can be convicted of menacing for just existing!

Sorry that happened to you Ginsue. Sounds like a bogus deal to me.

In my opinion, the cops tend to feel threatened by anyone who makes a stand for the safety of his own neighborhood. They automatically think "vigilante".

A friend of mine was in a very similar situation about a year ago. He actually was charged with felony menacing. His actions went a bit further than yours, but still.....

I'm not generally anti cop, I really do have a lot of respect for them, but sometimes I have to wonder about the lack of common sense they sometimes show in these situations.
