Yeah, I know. The police chiefs in Mass are different than cops everywhere else. Right? Yeah. link to story Police chiefs in Massachusetts are blasting state lawmakers for shooting down a provision that would have given them sole discretion over who can get rifle or shotgun permits.
The Bay State, which has some of the nation's toughest gun laws, has long left it up to a community's top cop to sign off on handgun permits. Lawmakers were considering extending that to include the Firearms Identification Card, or FID, needed to possess long guns. But lawmakers, leery of the constitutionality of the law, which critics say can result in law-abiding citizens being denied their Second Amendment rights, have stripped a proposed bill of that provision. This week, police chiefs from throughout the state and gun control advocates converged on the Statehouse in Boston to blast state senators for removing the provision.
�Our position is really very, very simple,� said Wayne Sampson, executive director of the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association. �We, as an association, believe that it�s unconscionable that if we determine a person is unsuitable to carry a handgun, that they can then turn around and apply for a Firearms Identification Card, which allows them, by law, to purchase rifles and shotguns. And there�s no way we can impose any restrictions on that. It just doesn�t make sense.� and as always, more at the link..........

Why do you not support the police? They know best who should and should not be armed.

Mass cops showed what they were all about during the marathon bombing, they showed sheer imcompetence, if it were not for a neighbor tipping them off they still would not have found the lone bomber. Their staged show of force to the MSM during the whole thing was disgusting. They clearly believe they rule the citizens in that state.

Police departments seem far more often to be on the wrong side of things (the side of the elites) than Sheriff's Departments. One wonders if that's a manifestation of the fact that Chiefs are political appointees with relatively secure positions while Sheriffs are holders of elective office, directly answerable to their constituency via the ballot box. No mystery to me.

Police departments are controlled by city councils, are they not? Who controls the city councils? As I recall, it's the VOTERS. Why don't more voters take action to replace councils who allow this crap?

Why don't more voters take action to replace councils who allow this crap? That's a disconnected and indirect means of popular control over the police. What happens there is that often all major parties running for council agree on militarizing the police, but differ on other points that earn the votes of their constituency, thus, in that case, the people have zero control over the police. Elites, however, have plenty of control over issues that will be agreed upon by all major parties by prior arrangement. Sheriffs, on the contrary, are directly answerable to the people in the communities they serve.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I am under the impression that your Sheriffs are pretty much autonomous with regard to Government beaurocracy...in that he or she can kick the traces and go a different way if he or she considers a particular Government action/law un-constitutional?
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Correct. Police Chiefs, however, do not have such authority granted to them. Most just take it anyway.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

MA was a hard place to have a handgun back in the early 70s. In order to take my Ruger single-six out of my house I had to have a handgun permit. That had nothing to do with concealed carry, it was just to walk through my front door with it. I was in the Navy stationed in Newport but living in MA. The chief said no unless I belonged to the local good guys gun club and the fees were way beyond the average sailors means. It made no difference to him I was on the ships pistol teem. I bought a home in the next town and that chief had no problem with me having a handgun and leaving the house with it.

Yep, they have to talk like they are opposed to firearms safety laws to get elected, but once in office they enforce those laws with gusto and end up having fewer crazy libertarian types to pay lip service to come the next election cycle.

Occupations just aren't that different from one region to the next which is what would be necessary for police in one area to be as different as you all claim.

What you don't get, is that your point is meaningless. You think that participation in an occasional meeting by an industry group amounts to universal groupthink. If they spent a lot of time together at frequent intervals, that might be the case - but once or twice a year does not make a mindset.

BTDT, sort of.
A few years ago when Iowa went from each of the 99 sheriffs having absolute discretion as to who got a CW permit, to shall issue, the chiefs and sheriffs associations screamed bloody murder that their investigations would be compromised, they'd be forced to issue permits to dangerous persons, and the streets would run red. Yadda, yadda, and of course it didn't happen. Then and now, AFAIK, you also had to get a permit from the sheriff to even purchase a handgun.
I had face to face conversations with both the local sheriff and police chief, who are highly regarded in the community and, believe me, I wouldn't want either to have any significant say as to whether a person should have a gun. Very parochial, tunnel vision, and all about the interests of LE, officer safety, little regard for citizens' rights.
The chief looked me right in the eye and told me that, as a result of the revised CW law, he was certain his officers would have to shoot somebody.

Police are not significantly different from one town to the next. That is why even the smallest departments send representative officers around the entire country to attend training events and funerals in order to associate as friends with those other departments.
I have been in all fifty states and lived in seven. I can tell you your first statement is wrong. So can I. This whole "people are the same everywhere" line of thinking is a lot of myth and hoooey. Getting together with people in the same business once or twice a year does not make a homogeneous group. Getting together every weekend...more likely. Who do you think your local guys are with weekly? So a carpenter from New York cuts a board looking over their shoulder with a mirro while one from texas cuts the board while facing it? BS. Occupations just aren't that different from one region to the next which is what would be necessary for police in one area to be as different as you all claim. Techniques and hardware are shared, but mindset varies by locality. A carpenter from New York may be more inclined to charge you double for the shoddy work than a carpenter from Texas. And a carpenter in New York has different codes to comply with than a carpenter from Texas. You must live in a small world to believe that people are the same just because their job looks the same to you from t he outside.

The police in Boston, NYC, Chitago, and such are a world apart from where I live. Trust me, I have been to all those places.

Yeah, I know. The police chiefs in Mass are different than cops everywhere else. Right? Yeah.
They're certainly different than cops in my town. Travis Police are not significantly different from one town to the next. That is why even the smallest departments send representative officers around the entire country to attend training events and funerals in order to associate as friends with those other departments. Spoken like someone that has never travelled extensively in NJ,NY and MASS.

Yeah - our cops don't even have the hardware those guys do - and don't feel the need for it. Sherps "all the same" comment is indeed the most ignorant thing I have read in a while.

You 2 can make fun of the statement since that is all you can do. What you can't do is show us many towns that do not send reps to IACP conferences or similar law enforcement get togethers which shows what indicates their views much better than your bogus claims. What you don't get, is that your point is meaningless. You think that participation in an occasional meeting by an industry group amounts to universal groupthink. If they spent a lot of time together at frequent intervals, that might be the case - but once or twice a year does not make a mindset. Once again, tell us the tale of the New York carpenter who works over his shoulder via a mirror while a Texas carpenter does not. How things are done just does not vary that much region to region/ Considering they go there for training and the fact they receive federal money that goes double on doing the same things the same way.

You mirror example is absurd. There are plenty of other differences.

Mannlicher,
It ain't cops who make laws. Politicians make 'em. It ain't cops who make regulations. It's bureaucrats who make 'em. Cops are required to enforce laws and abide by regulations. Blame ain't with cops. It's with politicians & bureaucrats.
Instead of sidetracking, it might be a better idea were Americans to demand that the Second Amendment as authored by James Madison and explicated by him in The Federalist No. 46 be strictly adhered. Madison didn't put anything in the Second Amendment about background checks, permits, or proving one is not a felon before Americans can exercise their Second Amendment Right to keep and bear firearms.
My suggestion is to pigeonhole political candidates in to a position of voiding every firearm law and thereby making the Second Amendment controlling before voting for them. I am good with keeping firearms out of the hands of violent felons. I do not think that a guy who was convicted of felony tax evasion should not be allowed to shoot clay pigeons, especially when many prosecutions are politically motivated.
Back door gun control is more dangerous than the overt variety. Bill Clinton, the liberal dirtbag that he is, tried to have misdemeanor drunk driving classified as a violent crime. I instinctively knew where he was going with his scheme. His intent was to prevent those convicted of misdemeanor drunk driving from owning a gun. Good thing that many politicians have been arrested for misdemeanor drunk driving lest he would have been able to deny a guy who 30 years ago was busted for misdemeanor drunk driving while driving home from a fraternity party from owning a gun.

Of the thousands of cops I've known in my life, maybe a small handful were liberals.
I know of no cop who'd support disarming Americans. That's why were Americans to be disarmed, it'll be the military that does it.

I am going to have to say I was wrong in the opening post here. I made reference to police chiefs being much the same as Mass. Another example of 'open mouth, insert foot', so to speak The National Association of Chiefs of Police official web site should be indicative of how Police Chiefs feel across the country, and according to them: FIREARMS
14. Should any vetted citizen be able to purchase a firearm for sport or self-defense? .....................................................Yes 86.8% No 11.1% N/A 2.1%
15. Would national recognition of state-issued concealed weapons permits facilitate the violent crime fighting
efforts of the professional law enforcement community? ...................................................................................................Yes 63.1% No 31.8% N/A 5.1%
16. Can qualified, law-abiding armed citizens help law enforcement reduce violent criminal activity? .......................... Yes 72.7% No 23.6% N/A 3.7%
17. Does your department use reality based/active shooter training? ..................................................................................Yes 78.1% No 21.1% N/A .8%
18. Does your department sell confiscated firearms to help meet budget needs or cover budget shortfalls? ...................Yes 19% No 79.6% N/A 1.5% Should have done my research up front. This is from their 25th annual national survey. http://www.nacoponline.org/25th.pdf

Sam, I think the NACOP gets confused with the IACPa lot of the time. Slightly different agendas and different membership demographics. "International Association of Chiefs of Police Position Paper on Firearm Violence" Now, find us a NACP member that tells and IACP member to screw off when they need help with anything.

That should be easy - since IACP membership includes police from outside the US, who are obviously not interested in any of our constitutional concepts.

sherp,
Of the thousands of cops I've known in my life, maybe a small handful were liberals.
I know of no cop who'd support disarming Americans. That's why were Americans to be disarmed, it'll be the military that does it. I never said police were liberals. Ronald Reagan was not a liberal, but he supported banning the carry of firearms by civilians when he signed the Mulford Act in to law, when he signed the 1986 machine gun ban in to law, and when the supported Brady and the 1994 assault weapon law. Conservatives routinely support firearms safety laws so why don't you get your claims in order. I am sure the military would be involved, but just like during Katrina, the police would be there helping out.

Mannlicher,
It ain't cops who make laws. Politicians make 'em. It ain't cops who make regulations. It's bureaucrats who make 'em. Cops are required to enforce laws and abide by regulations. Blame ain't with cops. It's with politicians & bureaucrats. "I was only following orders" didn't work at Nuremberg, Raisuli. TRH, It is spurious to compare USA cops with Nazi Brown Shirts. Cops are not obligated to follow an illegal order. In fact, a cop who commits a crime by following an illegal order cannot use following illegal orders a defense to his alleged crime. If an order is legal, then the problem lies with politicians who created stupid laws or bureaucrats to created illegal regulations. In fact, administrative regulations, which have force of law, should be illegal. Ya gotta know where blame lies, and it ain't with a cop doing his lawful duty.

Sorry dude. I am not going to take the time for that challenge. I only point out that the data is suspect because of the source. You posted it as if it has assumed authority, and I question it because of it's obvious bias and because bare statistics are never to be trusted. That is all. Why do you not support the police mentioned on that site? You would support an officer shown on video to be doing things that would put them on their tally sheet wouldn't you?

At the time, Black Panthers were exploiting law to carry guns to intimidate and murder. The Black Panthers were very bit as bad if not worse than the KKK. Ronald Reagan's intent was to give cops a tool to arrest Black Panthers. BTW, I don't agree with the law, not do I agree with any gun control law except those affecting violent felons.

I support myself and no one else . So you are a POS liberal/libertarian. Did you vote 3rd party or just go ahead and vote Obama? When i vote this year , I'm going to vote for the best man for the job, I'm going to write myself in on the ticket.

I am going to have to say I was wrong in the opening post here. I made reference to police chiefs being much the same as Mass. Another example of 'open mouth, insert foot', so to speak The National Association of Chiefs of Police official web site should be indicative of how Police Chiefs feel across the country, and according to them: FIREARMS
14. Should any vetted citizen be able to purchase a firearm for sport or self-defense? .....................................................Yes 86.8% No 11.1% N/A 2.1%
15. Would national recognition of state-issued concealed weapons permits facilitate the violent crime fighting
efforts of the professional law enforcement community? ...................................................................................................Yes 63.1% No 31.8% N/A 5.1%
16. Can qualified, law-abiding armed citizens help law enforcement reduce violent criminal activity? .......................... Yes 72.7% No 23.6% N/A 3.7%
17. Does your department use reality based/active shooter training? ..................................................................................Yes 78.1% No 21.1% N/A .8%
18. Does your department sell confiscated firearms to help meet budget needs or cover budget shortfalls? ...................Yes 19% No 79.6% N/A 1.5% Should have done my research up front. This is from their 25th annual national survey. http://www.nacoponline.org/25th.pdf While NACoP's positions appear better than the larger and older IAoCoP I still see many qualifiers of who they deem to allow arms: vetted, permit, qualified, and state-issued I thinks that translated into Constitutionalese the Chiefs' qualifiers are what is called infringements. Even this 'RKBA friendly' police organization is an advocate for 'shall be infringed' rather than 'shall not be infringed.'

When i vote this year , I'm going to vote for the best man for the job, I'm going to write myself in on the ticket. So you will vote in such a way as to support the democrat since you are not voting for the most electable republican.

It is Mulford, not Mumfort. If you can't get that right.... So why did Reagan, not go after the Black Panthers for terroristic threatening and murder? Are you trying to claim those acts were legal so they had to ban carry so they would have a reason to arrest those committing murder and making threats? The reason why was he wanted a prohibition on firearms for all civilians. A focus he never changed during his lifetime as you pointed out.

I'm not sure what your actual question is there, Sherp. I do not trust any statistics from any website that is agenda-driven, and neither should you. Statistics are meaningless without context. Those of you who back your arguments by offering such stand-alone statistics are using a weak tactic that usually does not stand up to scrutiny. It is a common logical fallacy that we all see in use on these forums quite often. I am only pointing out that this fallacy doesn't bolster your argument like you think it does. I am not claiming here that the data is wrong or that your conclusion from such is wrong (although I suspect so), but that your argument is relying on a fallacy. Don't worry about it. You're in good company.....

Much like the management team in my line of work, they do not think like the rank and file.

HQ is in Virginia Unless I missed any, there have been 2 non-USA presidents(Canadians) of the IACP since 1893: http://www.theiacp.org/IACP-Past-PresidentsCurrent board is almost entirely USA except for "International Vice President Chief Superintendent Barbara Fleury" from Canada. http://www.theiacp.org/Governing-BodyExecutive Staff is all USA: http://www.theiacp.org/Executive-StaffLooks to be mostly USA cops with the International part just tossed in as a token.

Ya gotta know where blame lies, and it ain't with a cop doing his lawful duty. I blame both those who issue tyrannical orders and those who follow them. Remember, the Redcoats were merely carrying out their lawful duties when they set out to confiscate the colonist's guns and powder at Lexington and Concord.

They have only been cranking out dictionaries for close to 2 centures now so we really should use you and your agenda as a resource on the English language instead.

Show me who the members are now. I'm dying to know. Show us a complete member list of The National Association of Chiefs of Police since you support their views on limiting who may own firearms.

FreeMe,
Ask him if he's a Green Beret.
Travis I am not. Are you still a member of the Log Cabin Republicans?

Oh yeah, use Wikipedia where any idiot can modify it at will. Hell with Merriam Websters as a resource. They have only been cranking out dictionaries for close to 2 centures now so we really should use you and your agenda as a resource on the English language instead.
Didn't bother to look at it, did ya? I gave you two references, of which one was wiki - and the info there was likely cut & paste from another source. It's pretty commonly available all over the place if you look with intent to learn. But you instead just resort to another logical fallacy to bolster your argument.....and your subsequent posts do the same. I lied about the test. The test is already in progress. Lots of time for you to score 100% before morning. Gotta go. See ya.

Yeah, I know. The police chiefs in Mass are different than cops everywhere else. Right? Yeah. link to story Police chiefs in Massachusetts are blasting state lawmakers for shooting down a provision that would have given them sole discretion over who can get rifle or shotgun permits.
The Bay State, which has some of the nation's toughest gun laws, has long left it up to a community's top cop to sign off on handgun permits. Lawmakers were considering extending that to include the Firearms Identification Card, or FID, needed to possess long guns. But lawmakers, leery of the constitutionality of the law, which critics say can result in law-abiding citizens being denied their Second Amendment rights, have stripped a proposed bill of that provision. This week, police chiefs from throughout the state and gun control advocates converged on the Statehouse in Boston to blast state senators for removing the provision.
�Our position is really very, very simple,� said Wayne Sampson, executive director of the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association. �We, as an association, believe that it�s unconscionable that if we determine a person is unsuitable to carry a handgun, that they can then turn around and apply for a Firearms Identification Card, which allows them, by law, to purchase rifles and shotguns. And there�s no way we can impose any restrictions on that. It just doesn�t make sense.� and as always, more at the link.......... I haven't read this entire thread. I just want to say this , The state of North Carolina has for years (since 1919) had a law that you have to ask permission of the head law enforcement officer of your county (county sheriff) to buy a handgun (Pistol Purchase Permit) This is nothing but a Jim Crow era law. In 2013 the PPP law was up for REPEAL. The repeal of the NC PPP law failed at least in part because it was opposed by a small handful of very influential REPUBLICAN sheriffs. Those sheriffs that opposed the repeal did not do so because of any concerns for "public safety" , but because THEY DID NOT WANT TO RELINQUISH THAT POWER over their constituents. Mike

I don't think he meant that one couldn't have friends who were cops.

Police are not significantly different from one town to the next. That is why even the smallest departments send representative officers around the entire country to attend training events and funerals in order to associate as friends with those other departments.
Get that dick out of your mouth you fuggin' homo. Travis Why are you badmouthing me since your state has the kind of police I support(and other conservatives do as well) while you are ashamed of them and claim they are not there at all? One officer out of every 116.4 is involved in police misconduct according to the graph you posted. That's less than 1%. I wonder how that compares to other professions?
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.

Mass cops showed what they were all about during the marathon bombing, they showed sheer imcompetence, if it were not for a neighbor tipping them off they still would not have found the lone bomber.
And if it wasn't for the neighbor's liberal wife making him smoke on the back porch the lone bomber would have bled out inside the boat where he was hiding. That would have saved the dwindling working population of Massachusetts another high priced show.
Leave the gun, take the canolis.

I don't know about that most professions seem reluctant to point out their colleagues errors. Its just about impossible to get a doctor, priest, lawyer, whatever to say one of their own messed up. I wonder why police misconduct is always big news?

It's hard to tell the difference between Assachusetts cops and most east-coast cops from the East German Stasi. And your experience with NH cops is........? It gets difficult to take some folks seriously anymore. 'Flave, there are still some "holdouts" in the east.

I apologize for not pointing that out, but I have clarified this with you before.0 Beside, isn't Mas Ayoob your NH police ambassador to the rest of the US?

I have no doubt there are great Americans on the east and west coast. But they are few and far between. And even those that lean right (in my experience) don't truly lean right. Travis

Why are you badmouthing me since your state has the kind of police I support(and other conservatives do as well) while you are ashamed of them and claim they are not there at all? One officer out of every 116.4 is involved in police misconduct according to the graph you posted. That's less than 1%. I wonder how that compares to other professions? Not sure, but you and I call that "misconduct" pro-active police work. I guarantee you that other occupations lack the camaraderie police have so if they were to do something that bunch calls "misconduct" that their co-workers would not assist them like police do their co-workers. I don't know about that most professions seem reluctant to point out their colleagues errors. Its just about impossible to get a doctor, priest, lawyer, whatever to say one of their own messed up. I wonder why police misconduct is always big news? I also like to call it a mistake or an error when an officer commits what would be theft/rape/arson and so on if it were a civilian doing it. Glad to see we are the same on this one.

If you guys want a real chuckle, ask sherp about rifles, handguns, or anything relating to the outdoors.
Travis What would you like to know? Since the questions you are asking do not pertain to the first post in this thread in any way, why are you trying to obfuscate for the police of Massachusetts? Why are you not proud of the job they are doing and why do you want to lead the focus of the thread away from them? Don't get all misty eyed, sweetheart. But seriously, type something about firearms or the outdoors so I can have a good chuckle. Travis No misty eyeed, and just a regular republican, not a og cabin type like you are so really not in to other males calling me "sweetheart". You popped it off so ask away. Try saying something that isn't a lie so we can all be amazed while you are at it also.

Kinda like clergy, teachers, foster home administrators, etc, I guess.
I thought police were civilians, I didn't know they were subject to the UCMJ.
I'm still wondering why police misconduct is big news?

I am like you with police who commit "rape" and I just call it an error, blame it on the victim, or claim it was because the officer was not getting paid enough.

I'm terrible at math but my Google'fu is strong. Based on Sherps graph 1 in 116.4 officers are involved in police misconduct that's something like 0.8591065292096219% according to percent calculator.

Big difference in that versus how police/Catholic clergy will assist each other. Father Jim is accused of rape and gets transferred to another state or country to avoid the hassle. Officer is forced to kill ex'lover's spouse, fellow officers don't even interview the officer and instead claim thieves stole only a wedding license in addition to knocking off the spouse.

No I guess they didn't load up the cart with drugs for her, they just let her continue to work and assist treating patients after the first two thefts. But I guess that's different somehow.

Police departments seem far more often to be on the wrong side of things (the side of the elites) than Sheriff's Departments. One wonders if that's a manifestation of the fact that Chiefs are political appointees with relatively secure positions while Sheriffs are holders of elective office, directly answerable to their constituency via the ballot box. No mystery to me. Very true, Hawk. Actually, to my knowledge, Chief's are not "political appointee's". He might be confusing Chief's with Director's of Police/Public Safety.

Honestly, I don't know. There are real variables there that are just facts such as if you are a poor inner city minority who will get a court appointed Public Defender, your conviction rate will be far greater than say some fat cat with unlimited legal funds.

A friend is a MA Trooper, and while engaged in a foot chase with a known felon some years ago, decided to abruptly suspend his pursuit.

Thanks, LBP Not sure, but would guess it is normally very high when there is video of the event occurring. Police usually toss that aside in the investigation or prosecutors decline to pursue it when police are involved which is why so many local incidents involving police end up in federal court versus a civilian would be happily charged by the state the incident occurred in.

While in college, my neighbor when I lived in Foxboro was a Mass State Trooper...Bill was one hell of a wonderful human being...
8 years in the Marine Corp after high school, two tours of Vietnam, came home at 26, and transferred to the Marine Reserves, and became a Mass Statie...
one of the finest people I've ever known...

Oh yeah, use Wikipedia where any idiot can modify it at will. Hell with Merriam Websters as a resource. They have only been cranking out dictionaries for close to 2 centures now so we really should use you and your agenda as a resource on the English language instead.
Didn't bother to look at it, did ya? I gave you two references, of which one was wiki - and the info there was likely cut & paste from another source. It's pretty commonly available all over the place if you look with intent to learn. But you instead just resort to another logical fallacy to bolster your argument.....and your subsequent posts do the same. I lied about the test. The test is already in progress. Lots of time for you to score 100% before morning. Gotta go. See ya. We already determined you were lying. When you berate someone and tell them to look up a definition and then claim Webster's isn't good enough, do we really need to know anything else about how you like to carry on conversations and debates? Who's "we"? You gotta mouse in yer pocket? Nice Red Herring fallacy you employed there. I didn't tell you to look up the definition of "fallacy". Do you not understand the difference between a logical fallacy and "wrong"? You need some remedial education. Get out your google-fu and get to work. When you google "logical fallacy", as you would have if you were honestly trying to learn anything - the first hit you get today is this.... https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/Fail.

ya know guys, it is not often that I regret posting something. This is one of those times.
What was, I thought, a legitimate, interesting observation, has become nothing more than a launch pad for loonies. Chit.

Not true. A friend is a MA Trooper, and while engaged in a foot chase with a known felon some years ago, decided to abruptly suspend his pursuit. Just long enough to put a round of .40 through the felon's back. Proof positive that some have a *great* sense of humor... He should probably read Tennessee vs Garner before he repeats that story... Travis The dude that was shot had a gun in hand as he fled. After the usual hullabaloo he (the MST) was cleared of any wrongdoing. And everyone lived happily ever after. Well, not everyone, but everyone who mattered...

Who's "we"? You gotta mouse in yer pocket? Nice Red Herring fallacy you employed there. I didn't tell you to look up the definition of "fallacy". Do you not understand the difference between a logical fallacy and "wrong"? You need some remedial education. Get out your google-fu and get to work. When you google "logical fallacy", as you would have if you were honestly trying to learn anything - the first hit you get today is this.... https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/Fail. I just go to Webster's and use their definition. Been a gold standard for that purpose before the creator of that site was a gleam in their daddy's eye.

What a gem this is.... Seriously.. Who here hasn't figured out that sherp is Take a pee? I am on here under 1 name and 1 name only. I am annoyed by people who make bogus mental deficient claims against people in an effort to defame then in a debate so I do not engage in that ignorant behavior at all. Your fixation with take a knee and me is making your loco name seem very, very real. Are you horsing around or do you really have problems? I am able to counter everything he claims without name calling or any other attempts at character assassination. He truly is fixated based on what he is doing. Now, either that is just horsing around (which I enquired about and is something someone bringing up mental state as a bogus argument would never, ever do) or he is a nut job.

That should be good to get his crazy off the street when he gets in to a dispute with a female 16 year old cashier at a gas station. Just hope they have security cam so we can see him holding the gun om her and repeating "Take a Pee" over and over as part of his demands.

MM They are friends to each other, but they are here to keep the toes of non-police on the line. Imagine how screwed up everything would be if they treated you like they do fellow officers. That is how it always has been and, with any luck, how it always will be.
