[1COUNTER-MORTER-68]

What’s up with the thread...I haven’t read the whole thing. Don’t know what the new sign-ups are looking for or talking about. Any idea?
~~~
Lotta sadness,,,

Some of the new folks are from/in that town so they are
on-scene,,,

From what I have read,,,The local LEOs-Over 21-crowd LET
the shooter run loose for nearly 3 Hrs. if I count rite,!!.

The “Good Ol’Boy” Crowd Lives In The North Too !!

After this bas’turd Murdered mostly little girls...!

“LET the shooter run loose for nearly 3 Hrs”

That sounds a bit odd.

[thefactor]

just curious. you seem fizated that this was a cop. if it was joe-lunchpail who worked in the local factory, would you even care?

or is this your golden hour to bash all cops in light of this tragedy? you have already insinuated that your local cops don't give ride-alongs because they have something to hide.

you seem almost happy that this was a cop.

Local [Ky] news tonight said the 14 year old victim was the girlfriend in question. Any info ???

[Petruchio]

From 7:30am to almost 2pm is more like 6ish, not 3.

[Rte66]

I can answer that one. No. She was a friend of the 18-yo GF, just spending the night with pizza and a movie and some friends.

Anyone asked who governs the Officer’s hiring/firing/discipline?

It’s either going to be a civil service commission or a Police & Fire committee, both falling under their own regs as well as state statutes.

?

TANKS a Bunch for the correction,,,

Long Thread,,,

That makes it twice as bad as I thought...

[jedward]

“Long Thread,,,”

I jumped in at 505 and lost interest by 515 (snort)

Not that I have seen,,,

As I was told,,,Part of the “test questions” come from the Feds,,,Race/?/etc.

“Friends~N~Kin” kicks in for me I guess,,,

~~~LEO’s And WOT~~~

I’ve be extremely surprised if their process of hiring does NOT include a general psyc eval. That’s SOP everywhere I know of...of course with small town, anythings possible. Well, actually in large cities too (lol)

CRANDON, Wis. (AP) -- A young sheriff's deputy who opened fire on a pizza party and killed six people reportedly flew into a rage when he was rebuffed by his old girlfriend, and others at the gathering called him a "worthless pig."

From the LA Times, Oct. 9:

http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/front/la-na-crandon9oct09,1,4541885.story?page=1&coll=la-headlines-frontpage

The AR-15 rifle was the type used by the Forest County SWAT team, of which Peterson was reportedly a member, though Crandon Police Chief John Dennee told reporters his office had not confirmed whether Peterson had used a gun issued by police.

-snip-

Shots were fired on both sides. Peterson was killed. J.B. Van Hollen, the state attorney general, declined to say whether Peterson died by shots fired by police, or whether he committed suicide.

Why are 20 year olds allowed to be officers?

[Badeye]

My point is that nobody ‘just snaps’. Thats a time honored myth thats been debunked by experts for years.
That’s a matter of definition.

No, actually it isn’t.
