I don't understand.

If you're perfectly ok with the way things are and the equity of our society. I understand that.

I and many others are absolutely not ok with it.
Are you doing something about it here? Or just more outrage culture? Hmm. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Mesocyclone and Knowledge and Jesus Christ are the same person.

This is my final post. Endure until the end, and you will be given eternal life from our God.

Addendum 2 my healthcare points plan.

Make it a system for maintenance and electives.

Accidental insurance and medicaid can cover trauma injuries related to accidents and abuse or violence only. No heart stents for high cholesterol or blood pressure under the Accidental system. Use your points on that stuff.

If you get hit by a rock truck on Tuesday or a stray bullet hits you, that can be written off as public and national security. Police departments and cities should be responsible for the damage they allow drunks and meth heads 2 do.

Better system than the police shooting your dog then charging you for the ammo!

Yep. Police departments need to be responsible for damages and medical bills period.

This is stupid. Police aren't going out wanting to shoot dogs. Generally speaking they don't want to shoot anybody. They are doing a job that the rest of us don't want to do, and then we spit on them when they make a mistake, while enjoying the protection they provide.

If you have a problem with cops, go become a cop and show them how to do it right.

I have a problem with the government and it is often immune and shielded from the results of its own mismanagement.

Cops would have it better as individuals under the stated system because they would have better scope. Citizens would be more self reliant and cops would likely be better trained and used less when two neighbors were just being dumb.

Cities and neighborhoods would have to solve their slum problems not just offload it to cops through more hours, extra work load.

I'm talking about holding the city responsible. Not the cops. Cities that can't function should fail and be replaced by those that can solve these problems.

Citizens do not have a "right to a corrupt city " like LA that grinds its cops and citizens to dust for profits for a few elites.

Oh I totally agree, I'm not saying cops are perfect, they're human beings and they do make mistakes like the rest of us. And I'm certainly no fan of criminal cops getting away with things. They need more money though, so they can be better trained in non-lethal restraint. "Banning choke holds" is one of the dumbest policies ever. Properly-applied choke holds are one of the safest ways to restrain somebody without having to fire a taser or a bullet. Meanwhile "Defund the police" basically just means "I want more crime". It's moronic.

Not just immune and shielded from the results of its own mismanagement, but actively incentivised.

Hard to be a good cop when funding is issued for being bad.

@Ooloo: while not a US city cop, I have some experience in enforcement as an operative for the inland waterways authority so I have got my feet wet, in a sense, with ornery boaters and river pirates [You must be logged in to view images.
