Who said anything about a threat? Projecting much. I enjoy pointing out the obvious, and sorry position doesn't make any difference. If you were stupid enough to do it, you'd pay for it too, at the end of the day.

Fun tip point: Pensions are protected, and so is reasonable force under the law in terms of assault. But you'd by and far enjoy losing don't worry. Plenty of case law on it.

>> ^longde:

I don't know who you think you're talking to with your keyboard threats.
If I was stupid enough to get in a position that would let you do that, and you were stupid enough to try, you would never be able to retire. I'd make sure your pension was given to my kids and my lawyers.

>> ^longde:

I wish the people rooting on the officer could spend a week with over-aggressive cops in their neighborhood. Perhaps a sucker punch to your mother's or sister's face for leaving dog crap on the sidewalk will open your eyes.
As self righteous as some of you are, I doubt you would quietly be arrested if you thought the cop was wrong.

Tip: If you have problems with the cops in your neighborhood you have a recourse. It's called going down to the precinct/station and filing a complaint.


Considering dog shit isn't anywhere near as to grabbing a cop when they're already dealing with someone, you don't have much of a clue. Maybe you could go and head out on a few ride alongs and find out what it's like to deal with the assholes and shitrats of society. But nah that's beyond you. But just remember, back about 4-10 years ago...no one wanted to be cops. So for all those bad cops you got, you're reaping what you've sown. Many of the cops that have been hired in the US in the last 10yrs don't fit the grade because they would hire anyone, because of mass shortages. But that really doesn't excuse people for being idiots and thinking that they're above the law, and can assault a cop.

And just to add an extra bit. If I was out on beat, and you spit on me. You'd be eating the sidewalk and getting an assault charge with it.

Just a reality point here. Women are more violent and assaultive then men, these days especially when it comes to police.
>> ^ToKeyMonsTeR:
I don't care if you're a cop, a judge, or fucking Obama himself, you don't hit a woman like that and you especially don't do it to fucking kids. I can't fucking comprehend how anyone can say it's ok.



Basic ticket, you're going to detain the person to write the ticket. Whether that's in the car or outside. First rule of anything, you're always in control of the situation. If you're not in control, or you lose control you do with whatin reason to regain or control it. In the video she's being assaultive, that's it. Second thing, most places with traffic law(that includes there), have a section covering "removal of a person from a roadway/highway, for their own safety". Which WA does.

>> ^ToKeyMonsTeR:


Mashiki can you explain to me any reason why the cop was touching the first girl? What is the proper procedure when a officer see's someone jaywalking?

Wow. A whole bunch of people in a thread, who think they've had some form of police training and/or DF in a police setting. And know the UoF mandate, and all that. Breaking news! That area the kids from the local highschool actively engage in baiting of cars across a major intersection. There is a walkway above the roadway which they refuse to use.

Second thing, title of video is misleading. She wasn't punched for jaywalking, she was punched for assaulting an officer. I'll now return you to your warped world view, where all of you are experts and have no training. Unlike some of us.

What on Earth makes Palin think America can supply it's own energy demands, ...

You guy's refuse to build nuke power plants and let environmentalist nuts dictate energy policy. Point is valid. The US energy policy on anti-nuclear set back actual development in other high-form reactors by about 60 years.

>> ^Shepppard:

... snake oil salesmen were unscrupulous unintelligent morally deprived people who relied on their high amount of charisma to charm people into believing them and buying what they're putting out.
The most comparable thing to this isn't science, it's Sarah fucking Palin.

You mean like Gore? Or other environmentalists? The ol'BS meter is generally pegged on anything relating to climate "science", simply because of the amount of scientists who use it to get their funding for the year. Another 10 years and sanity will return, providing that idiots who follow it, don't drive us into global bankruptcy first.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned Homo Milk yet -- that is far more WTF to me than bag milk. And yes, there is Homo Bag Milk...


I don't know why you'd say that, homo is shorted for homogenized(aka the shit tastes like water). Most places just don't call it that. Personally I'm a 3-4% mf drinker that likes non-homogenized milk, but I grew up on a farm. In Ontario, where we have more cows than people.

What I can buy at my local grocer, 3L containers don't exist either. 1L to 4L jugs. Bags 1-4L, homo/non. Cartons 1-4L, can't buy actual whipping cream so I have to make my own. 0.25-0.5L speciality types for cooking. And I live in a city with a population under 50,000. What I would like to buy at the store is milk in glass containers. Over in Kitchener/Waterloo and a few other places, theres a couple of companies that still do daily milk delivery in glass containers. I have to say, nothing quite like getting it every day in your milk box. And I have one of those too!

>> ^NordlichReiter:
I kinda feel meh about this one.

I got a chance to play a review copy a little bit ago. It's an excellent game, I'd say give it a go even if you're feeling meh about it.

Wait is this really from Canada? No I ask seriously. Just about anyone who lives here for more then a month already knows that you're totting around with a joint or two it's no big deal. Ah...that big concert in Toronto after that SARS thing, I was there. Open air and you could see the haze, it was pretty damn funky.

The only other thing I can think of is this is the stupidest person in Canada, and that's saying a lot.

>> ^Shepppard:
...there's a face in that video somewhere.
I know it.
Just, haven't been able to locate it yet.

It's above the glorious mounds which wiggle in delight for you.

>> ^Dignant_Pink:
bite it. gold may be heavy, but it's soft. soft enough that your teeth should leave a mark. in the cartoons, whenever someone bit a coin, they weren't testing to see if it would bend, they were looking for teeth marks.

Yeah let me know how well that works with 14k gold okay? When you're buying new teeth I'll be here still standing around mocking you too. Doesn't work very well with 24k either.

Needs *blocked

I think this is the same episode/start in Canada but I can't even tell at the moment:

Pretty impressive how the music has evolved too!
I can still remember spending 3hrs trying to get my soundblaster's midi output to work properly for WCI/II, the tones were always off by just a little bit. But there was something special about the sound of midisynth that gave a unique sound to games from that era.

I'll never miss having to manually mess around with autoexec.bat and config.sys files to load drivers and set paths, but there's something from that era in the way of music that's missing.

>> ^rasch187:
I can safely say my country is NOT a christian/religious nation. The people who are believers are either really old or from the religious south (yes, America, we've got that in common)

Being religious in any form doesn't detract from believing in some form of spirituality that's a reality too. You can have a nation of people who are non-religious but have a strong sense of spirituality, without a defining motivator. There's a good number of people who would claim to be atheists in Canada these days, but still focus their lives on some form of spirituality.


Personally I see this entire video as bunk.

>> ^kymbos:
Core principles, like racism and ignorance.


Huh? Look at the Dem's for the last 30 years? I guess not.

>> ^Godless:
Premonitory!... I see no difference between this skit and any of Beck's rants at Fox.

This is comedy, the other is opinion. Pretty easy to tell the difference.


I really did love this show, I remember coming home from school to watch it. Despite what people think, Canadians did have a problem with the USSR(territorial soverignty issues, still ongoing, airspace violations--see Alert among other places) but we were also the main mediators between the US and the USSR.
