The fact is.....the military will always want the military policed by the military.  To have the RCMP, OPP or whoever police local bases...... Well frankly Ottawa doesn't want it's dirty laundry getting out...nor will ottawa accept their bases and property policed by people who ultimately don't...

His and your rank are irrelevant...he's a police officer and as such should talk to EVERYONE he deals with respectfully...be it a Pte, general, or crackhead.  That's my pet peeve with a lot of my co workers...it's not hard to be polite to people in this job. That said, for the case in question...

Although it's technically true.......its a stupid thing to say.

Will I'm done here...I'm not going to argue with you. As for the Emmy award comment....go ask the guys who responded to sandy hook if they would like one....they earned it I guess.

You're familiar with how to do my job are you?  Good to know

Well if, god forbid, I ever have to respond to a school shooting in progress (luckily they never happen).....I'll be sure to recce the crap out of it first. Royal I pose this question to you, as I'm pretty sure you're an officer.  Let's put yourself in the same position that chief of police was...

I honestly can't believe the nonsense I've read in this thread...from members of the CF no less. Whine whine whine the police have mean looking things...this may come as a shock to you guys, but a lot of people in this country aren't very nice.  Shocking I know. It's like I said before..better...

I pose this question to you.  If a member of your family was killed and the local police service could have potentially saved their life if they had an armoured vehicle but their explanation to you was "we could have had an armoured vehicle for cheap...but didn't really think we'd need it.  Now...

They are shot with an alarming frequency because they statistically commit more crimes.  This isn't a race thing, it's a crime stat thing.  No different in Canada how aboriginals are hugely over represented in jails.  The fact is, crime stats don't lie. Look up the stats for a predominately...

You're so far out to lunch it's laughable.  Where to begin debunking your nonsense... First off, as was stated before, calls for service vs criminal charges laid are two very different things.  I can tell you with 100% certainty that what a city police officer does is not "90 percent" traffic. ...

Sending out tac teams costs money.  They employed the team because there was a need to. Too many people think, especially when it comes to police, that if it's not in plain sight....it's not there.  None of us know why the tac team deployed to that place....and none of us ever will.  So why sit...

Witnesses stated he had his hands up?  Open and shut case then....witnesses have never been known to lie ever.  People hate the police, more so in economically challenged neighbourhoods as that's typically where the crime is and therefore where the police are. Members of the African American...

There wasn't a curfew initially...it was brought into place on Saturday in response to the rioting.... There were also no riot police the first night and only a handful on the second night.  As we have all seen, that wasn't exactly effective. Like I said man...armchair quarterbacking this is...

I reiterate....what would YOU have done to prevent this apparently preventable riot? I'm not trying to be confrontational.....but armchair quarterbacking something you have no clue about.....is stupid.

If all they want is answers they would wait until answers can be given.  They were rioting within 24 hours of the shooting....nothing can be determined by then. The rioters are killing each other....literally.  Go live there, have your store or home looted and wrecked and say the police action...

I can answer this as a cop and although I can't offer any perspective on a support tour as I was battle group...I'll do my best. The job of a cop is more dangerous if/when you run into someone that wants to kill you.  Conversely, the job of a soldier is more dangerous if/when you run into...

Not really sure what comments you're referring to, nor do I see where I deviated from the discussion that was ongoing....

While I admire the fact you've read a book or two.....in the real world crimes are committed by people with education and good jobs all the time...crimes you wouldn't expect either.  Theft is VERY commonly committed by well off people and when I ask them why they did it the answer is either "I...

The factors are irrelevant....she committed a crime and was caught. The fact that you think someone's education level or job means she probably hasn't committed crimes in the past is laughable......very laughable.
