time to reevaluate what core functions are..............and hopefully get cops back out on foot, bicycle, etc....

because they didn't play the charge em and let the judge figure it out game, as most oversight units seem to.

the training scar I see is resolving a use of force situation in 30 seconds or less. Training time is short and in order to rep out pistol, CEW, spray, baton, cuffs and feet/fists - a lot of the scenarios presented do not encourage utilizing distance/time/talk. Although I have experienced...

huuuuuuuuuge problem. the more training, the less cops. with society expecting jane avg cop to be a trained negotiator, swat operator, csi tech, criminal profiler and on and on.

never got to Berlin back then, couldn't due to security clearance...........

It would have been helpful if the author of the noted article actually spent a day at Depot. I went in 87/88. It wasn't army hard, but it was tough enough. The recruits were not better or worse than the hundreds I have since worked with in Ontario, who came from the OPC. Asides from the OPC...

recruiters are fighting over a limited pool of people with post secondary. not enough of em. plus few coming in want to work in patrol for one minute longer than they have to. comparing themselves to private sector, having a heavy amount of education means your going to move up the corporate...

my favorite is when they call 911 for the cops to come because one of their FMOL buddies is kicking the shit out of them......and they want government help ie) Paramedics/Police. Pretty sure they would fight their house fire solo either. Whack jobs.

Harper wasn't a whole lot better........I will be impressed with PP 1) if he can convince swing voters to vote for a "horrors".....a Tory and 2) if PP gets the big seat - if he actually fixes procurement and spends the needed dinero.

touche......

pretty sure part of this is the misguided belief that bright, means loyal

baha. gotta think the Dwyer hill operators might not like keyboard warriors using the same nomenclature......or. maybe not.

picket lines can make people mob up become and quite ugly. lets hope not.

baha! "Take off those inhuman hats" some Sapper SM in W Germany in 1981.......as someone was wearing a robin hood hat instead of a capbadge-less beret

sometimes the big honcho needs to see the problem with own eyes
