Your video, Musical chair game in high school, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Under U.S. law the fleeing felon rule was limited in 1985 to non-lethal force in most cases by Tennessee v. Garner.

You can't shoot a fleeing suspect in the back unless the officer has probable cause to believe the suspect "poses a significant threat of death or serious bodily harm".

No apparent weapon. At the time of the shooting, fleeing teen was merely in a vehicle matching the description of a vehicle seen in a shooting. Officer is white, is part time, and has been through 4 police departments in 7 years (http://www.wtae.com/article/east-pittsburgh-police-officer-identified-in-antwon-rose-shooting/21754207).

As someone who has relatives in the police force, I can tell you that officers don't change jobs that often unless they are having issues or are moving to a completely different area. All 4 of the dept. were in Pittsburgh, so I am willing to bet this officer kept getting cited or failing evals.

That is the problem. We don't have a system in place to PREVENT these unfit officers from simply playing musical chairs with different departments. We have a national criminal database, it is beyond time that we have a national unfit officer database to prevent these assholes from being rehired by an unsuspecting department.

I find it hard to believe none of you have ever played Musical Chairs: Dead Cat Edition.

That's some seriously competitive musical chairs.

I remember this game, its called musical chairs. Wonder who will be left without a seat when it is all over, the ones consuming or the ones producing?

I never in my life thought I'd find a round of musical chairs to be awesome.

Countless books have been written, I disagree with your titling because it assumes that this is coordinated and conscience behavior rather then simply greed clouding good judgment between actual and perceived market values and how long it will last.

It's akin of playing a game of musical chairs while the house is on fire, people keep playing because they assume they will not be affected. But in the end it does collapse and there is a net loss.

Those net losses however instead of affecting the few create large transmissive effects through the rest of the economy.

All because of newer and more complex financial instruments.

i was put in a similar situation. I was stationed at two different Enemy prisoner of war camps, or E.P.W's in military jargon. I was apart of an engineering batalion, and it was our job to build and maintain these camps. I witnessed brutality on wide sliding scale. From food deprevation, to not giving the prisoners any shade all day in the summer desert. To acts of physical brutality, it was a kind of sport, likened to dog fighting. The prisoners were placed in an area that was enclosed by a circle on consentina wire...or razor wire i think is similar. Soldiers would stand around the outside of the wire and taunt, beat, and humiliate these guys. It was all in the name of a good laugh..and they did laugh. They would try to instigate fights among prisoners in the circle by handing out lunch rations...the trick was that there would always be one ration short. Like musical chairs. I saw the prisoners fight each other for food but it seemed like a show, they're wasn't any brutal animosity..It was done out of nessesity, like a father spanking a child, they're was an emotionasl control that the priosoners maintained. If a prisoner was known to be a fighter he would get special treatment. Sticks were thrown into the ring, in the hopes that a more violent bloodshed would ensue, thankfully it never happened, while I was there anyway. I watched through binoculars with my section sergent, and a few others in my platoon. My sergent would get the same thrill out of watching as the men standing outside the wire...Sad days. I never spoke out while there, because honestly I felt like the only one who was upset by it. There was a mob mentality, that if you expressed any remorse for the prisoners that you were weak, or a fag. And even if I did report the acts to anyone with brass, they would'nt do a damn thing about it...after all they didn't want to risk looking like a fag to their higher-ups. In my opinion most commisioned officers are most concerned with getting promoted, getting to that next level of achievement, and they would sacrafice anything to get there, so long as they looked good to the big brass. Yeah I definitly think selifish attitudes were overriding any desire to help those poor bastards. Unlike the guy on the tape, talking about those incidents to peers has the opposite affect. It's best for me to bury those feelings and memories. When I do, I feel a little more normal, but once I start telling the stories, and friends/girlfriends get an idea of what its like they treat me differently. I just want to be like everyone else is all. I don't want be president of any chapters, I don't want to give lectures at universities. And when people don't know about the incidents I went through I feel a little more like a normnal person. not someone who needs to be coddled, or pittied, or given special treatment. I think anyone who wants to know the truth about what's going on out there, just has to open a book, or read the paper. I commend this guy, he's doing something about it, good for him. But i very very rarely open myself up like that where friends and family might see it.

From my perspective the current problem is being caused by a complete lack of regulation. Sure the Fed adjusts rates etc etc, but the market itself invests money in speculations, that are made of speculations that are made off other speculations. Its almost like a financial game of musical chairs, there's the illusion there's enough room for everyone but in the end only one person walks away with the actual money and everyone else is stuck with the debt.

I think the war has a lot to do with the actual decline of the dollar, the government has borrowed so much freaking money to fund it, I'm surprised we aren't passing around Chinese notes instead of dollar bills.

This is what trickle down economics looks like in practice, the rich are well taken care of, and everyone else is more or less screwed. The rich don't let money trickle down, that's how they got rich in the first place.
