The Germans maintain lane discipline in their driving; this would be a continuation of that---
Almost a terrifyingly regulated society.

Tradition. This goes way way back. It's purely ceremonial, but it's one off many old traditions practiced by armed forces everywhere. I imagine it has its origins in boredom, but it's pretty spectacular when done right. Plus, among servicemen, it showcases precision and discipline, things of which soldiers are proud.

I think that's because technical education on that side of the "law" hasn't been institutionalized. Several colleges have tried in the last decade but they're always being attacked for "training haxxors" or some such BS.
I worked in IT for a couple years, and I know a lot of IT departments rely on certifications, but the discipline currently persists in being the territory of hobbyists, which is sad to me.

I find it disgusting that it is perfectly acceptable in some countries to use a rod on your wife to discipline her.

@VoodooV
years ago police and sherrifs were part of the community.they lived next door.they went to church and participated in local social events.
so incidents like this were a rarity.

and cops were held accountable by the community.
i remember as a teen playing basketball at a friends house and watching a group of men walking with purpose to a cops house who lived right down the road.

being teens and super curious we followed the men.
now for quite some time it had been known that this officer was fond of stopping young women and frisking them for no apparent reason other than to grope them.since there was no actual evidence nothing was ever done about it concerning discipline towards this officer.

so these fathers decided to do something about it.

they were calm.
they were collected.
and they told the cop to get out of their neighborhood.
leave.
and that if the cop ever touched another young girl they would pull him out by his feet and humiliate him in front of his family.(which was awesome)

the cop laughed it off with false bravado and refused to leave.

here is where it got interesting.
people started to shun this cop and his family.
nobody would do business with him.not locally at least.
they wouldnt sit near him at church.
his kids didnt get invited to parties or any social events.

and within a month he moved his family to conneticut.
no violence.
no harsh words.
the neighborhood just shut his family out.

but those days of cops being part of the community are gone.cops have become revenue officers who represent the power of the state.the cops of old who joined the force out of duty has been replaced with egomaniacs and violence addicts.(not all mind you).

so we get incidents like we see here in this video.
shame really.

whats even MORE shameful is to read the muppets who blame the victim for violence.
"if she had just complied"
"if she hadnt worn that skirt"
"if they had just remained silent and not spoken up"

then what?
slink away in shame and silence?
THATS your answer?

a police officer should always be held to a higher degree of integrity.
of professionalism.according to you muppets its the other way around and it is WE,the citizen,who must anticipate the inherent violence and submit with a timid whimper.

do what your told.
sit down.
shut up.
obey.
muppets.
the lot of ya.

>And Japanese government officials wonder

imagine how quick world overpopulation could be controlled by a worldwide group decision among women alone... only women hold the power to save the Earth just 60 years... would make an interesting movie where 1 in 20 women over the next 60 years was allowed to have a single kid

OK, well men could band together too but I don't trust our achieving the level of discipline required as much in some situations

The dad feels bad for punishing the child and weakly asks her to reaffirm her love for him, and the child senses his weakness and withholds her love as a bargaining tactic..this kind of parenting is why you see situations where children are yelling at their parents in the supermarket and the parent tries to hush them up with a candy bar.

Without the parents presenting a unified and unwavering front on discipline and authority in the home, the children quickly learn how to manipulate them and play the parents off of one another. They become little napoleons who know all they have to do is throw a fit to get their way. The home environment where the child is exalted and the discipline is weak and the authority compromised is a breeding ground for the dysfunctional, me-centric culture we see today.

Sorry, my children, but this is a dictatorship, not a negotiation. You don't get to decide how Mommy and Daddy discipline you. If you don't like how it makes you feel, do as you're told.

I don't get your point. Why does there have to be a purpose?

It's a skill. You practice it and you master it. The reasons why are down to the individual.

People still work in wood using hand tools, when we have machine tools and 3d printers.

People still draw when we have cameras. Hell, people still use film in cameras.

To go further, what is the useful purpose of football? or baseball or any sport? People do things because they enjoy them.

So why spend time learning to cut with a katana?
There are lots of reasons. Some are respecting a tradition and culture they feel still has something to offer. Some apply the discipline and focus it requires to other aspects of their life.

And some people just think swords are cool.

...tellin' y'all, a few ice cubes er not with 4oz & 4oz...chill the vodka, chill the brine, pour..dry Vermouth may have an edge that can't be duplicated so add it if ya will, but ya can't go wrong with, and nothing hits the spot quite like, chilly olive brine and vodka from the freezer standing stiff on her own-S'pecially after a long day at the (insert physically demanding discipline here.)

This is ridiculous and the cops DO need to be disciplined beyond a write up or paid time off.

That being said when they say that the cops should behave up there with the best of us, that they should be held to a higher standard etc. I agree with him. Now assuming that you believe this, it's only natural that the people who have:
- one of the most dangerous domestic jobs around
-that have large amounts of work and personal stress derived from their job
-that are constantly under criticism (sometimes founded but mostly not) by the people that they serve
- are expected to behave above and beyond normal societal standards while on duty

...should be some of the best paid, highly qualified, and highly respected people in our community. Lucky for us we treat them that way....right?

We can't expect the best of people all the while treating them worse than we treat store clerks or waitresses that bring us our lunch.

The art of the Handebung is a recognized discipline in Switzerland I understand....
God, we can not stand TYT! What a couple-a-dopes...what a pair 'a maroons!

SO
FORKING
WHITE!!

No, I don't need to research "properly cleared" firearm. You do.

By definition if it is properly cleared then it has no cartridge in the chamber and is safe.

If a person makes a mistake and assumes a firearm is cleared when it is not - then they have not - by definition - properly cleared the firearm.

If a person is shot by a firearm they assumed was cleared or they did not clear properly then by definition they have not cleared it properly.

"not a single one of them saw the bullet in the barrel" is usually caused by a squib load. It is easily detected both when it happens and visually by looking for light down the chamber end of the barrel (no light = projectile stuck in barrel). If you mean to say that you had a cartridge in the chamber and 30 people familiar with cleaning firearms didn't see it then you have 30 people in need of reeducation.

A self discharing firearm is not common but yes it does happen. That's why we practice muzzle safety at all times with a loaded firearm.

"Now, if you truly believe a firearm was invented for sport, you have seriously deluded yourself."
I don't know where you got this from. I never wrote any sentiment similar to this. I wrote about the difference between design and use. A firearms first use was for killing animals (people included). This is now outnumbered by sports shooters by an order of magnitude.

I think it is pretty obvious I'm familiar with firearms and you don't need to describe a 22lr Hammerli, 22lr Anschutz, etc. sports pistol or rifle to me. These are not nearly as common as other multi-use sporting firearms. Sporting includes all the disciplines in my link a few posts back and hunting game animals.

"if you truly truly deep down in your gun loving heart believe an AR-15 was invented for sport . . . well, there's nothing anyone can ever say to make you see reason."
I never suggested I did.

"If you truly believe hallow point bullets were made for sport, then we live in a very strange world."
I never suggested I did. They're for expansion upon contact with body fluids to help bring about hydrostatic shock and give a larger hole with expansion of the bullet. They may have been intended for hunting (which is a sport) by its designer - I don't know and I doubt it's recorded in the history books.

"If you truly believe a recoiless machine gun that fires 30 rounds per minute was made for sport"
This is getting boring.

Look it's pretty obvious you're confusing "intent of design/invention", with "design", and "purpose of use". They are three different things.

The intent of the original design for firearms was for it to be used as a weapon to kill animals (again people are animals). No two ways about that.

A firearm is designed to accelerate a projectile down the barrel.

A firearm is used for more than it's original intention. So nowadays we use it more for sports using paper, cardboard or clay targets than hunting (which is also a sport) or killing other people.

"Guns, well, you're just in fantasy land there."
Now that you've finished your embarrassing diatribe could you try to be a little nicer and pay attention to what I write - not what you imagine I wrote.

No, you're accusing me of being a dick. I'm being polite. I'm being accurate with my words. If I've inadvertently been rude then I apologise. In my opinion you answer aggressively and rudely (without cause or need).

You must be confused in regards to complacency - you were having that discussion with "messenger" - not with me. But your confusion aside - I agree 100%.

Yes I deny guns are "designed to kill". Guns are designed to accelerate projectiles and there are no two ways about that. You can go argue with my engineering professors if you want to redefine what "design" versus "purpose of use" means - I'm not going to bother again.

My apologies - I didn't mean you were paraphrasing about the lethality of weapons - I meant you were paraphrasing the part about respecting the firearm - which may not be clear because I was agreeing with you as a response.

They are not using the paper for "target practice". The shooting of paper is actually a sport across several different disciplines. Here is a list of said sports - almost all of them shoot at paper, cardboard, steel or clay targets:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_sport

Now I've given you the list - are you still going to say these sports are irrelevant?
Keep in mind tens of millions of people participate in these sports. It's pretty obvious who is getting what - I'll leave you to believe what you like though.
