    How many of you guys who know EVERYTHING have ever run a school board, let alone a bigger office? Boys, and most of you ARE boys…believe what you’ve been told about God…the Constitution…WOMEN…liberals, because you’ve NEVER met one, so many died winning WW2 and in ‘Nam…nah, you follow drug-addled draft dodgers who don’t know their hats from their hips…making YOU dumber, by far, than dirt.

    Go on…RUN for an office. Or sub teach at a schools for a year or so…get out there and get involved, see if you can BECOME an American before you die.

    I think Shoe’s point is that if your subscribers read your paper to be entertained, it’s not at all stupid.

    Back in the days when we had actual journalists, trained and dedicated to getting to serious issues, with the ability to be “tough”, but with respect, there weren’t many stupid questions. In today’s situation; where morons with “pretty faces” or totally brainwashed by right wing conservatism are asking questions for the “twitter generation”,in the “electronic media” that is NOT seeking real “news”, rarely do we hear anything BUT idiotically stupid questions, even of the politicians on THEIR side!!

    Somehow, I get the feeling they’ve come to the right place.

    This one made me smile.

    From the one video I watched, and article, don’t know how Canadian law would deal with the officers, but, having been an “incident commander” in riot control, and giving training, military and civilian, these guys did just about everything WRONG in the situation. Starting of course with the fact you NEVER bottle people up, without giving them a clear and EASY route of “departure” or “escape”. This same kind of idiocy played out more recently in New York, and elsewhere with “controlling” the Occupy movement. The supervisors in New York, and the campus “rental cop” with the pepper spray in Davis, should have been arrested themselves for assault.

    I’ve been a “cop”, have relatives who still are, and feel ALL police departments should be trained, controlled, and treat citizens with respect, and vice-versa. Neither citizens, NOR OFFICERS should be at risk of life or limb in any “confrontation”. Those who START a “risk situation” on either side, should be punished appropriately, under the law, for the violation.

    AS we’ve gotten more violent as a society, likewise, too many police agencies have “jumped the gun”, literally on bringing violence, instead of reason, into the situations. Good cops are the ones who join to serve. “Bad cops” are the ones who join to “push people around”. Too often “conservative” thought, like in Berkeley, or Baghdad, tends toward violent response, not, reason. It means society needs to “change”, not just protestors, or police.
