LEO’s shooting dogs have all the signs of “Roid Rage.”
They are all working out to keep in shape.
Steroids are available online.
I see the trend.
I’ve known a lot of LEOs. These days every one of them under 40 is using. Some use in moderation to get an “edge” but the rest are just plain abusers. The department turns a blind eye until it gets embarassing or starts costing them money. But even then they just put the officer on paid leave. I know a guy who has been on leave for a couple years while he deals with his ‘roid-induced head problems. He goes back to work every couple months for a week or two, and then something bad happens and he goes back on leave. The last I heard he was still getting paid.
Undoubtedly that’s part of the problem.
Of course, the fact that they increasingly appear to be Obama’s idea of a civilian task force just as armed as the military is another factor.
“We have got to have a civilian national security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded. -Barack Obama July 2, 2008”
And even now, some Freepers will defend them.
