1. Geez
some of them are still counting on SCOTUS to rule Obama ineligible to serve.

I kind of want the people who are out there protecting me to be rational and sane. Some of these guys sound just as nuts as the freepers.

3. Yet another insane asylum......
....these are the trying times for the sane. Incidentally, do they not do psych profiles on prospective LEOs before they are awarded the badge, gun and authority? Is it about time to institute a once-every-five year update like I had to undergo when I held my clearances?

7. Well, I assume psych profiles can be tailored to the type of personality...
Edited on Sun Dec-07-08 05:30 PM by Kutjara
...you want to attract and retain. With a little bit of tweaking "batshit crazy authoritarian Nazi-wannabe racist psychopath" can be redefined as "strong on public order."

I'm channeling "Alice's Restaurant" a bit here. :)

6. I wonder if there's any profession that's populated with as many shitacular people...
as the police?

And just what I wanted for xmas: agents of the state proselytizing.

8. And hopefully by 2012 the nearest these clowns will get to law enforcement work...
Will be their security guard jobs at the local mall.

10. Aren't most police in labor unions?
AND as my dad used to say, "They can't afford to be Republicans."

13. I'm not looking but the National Association
of Police Organizations endorsed Obama in the primaries ..

And, then they endorsed Obama-Biden.

They knew what they were doing and if the brainwashed don't like it they should step away from fauxsn00ze.

14. I like the last post in the thread where a guy slaps the detractors back to reality ...
"
you guys really need to quit all the hoopla about where Obama was born and gun bans and begin training for a mumbai type incident here.
"
Word. The election is over. The Office of the President is to be respected. Its time to be Americans again.

17. I didn't realize how messed up police were...
...I guess the old saying about police being more like the criminals they are supposed to be pursuing than the rest of us. I can't believe I pay their salary.
