Which is why it needs to be more often so that all officers are better conditioned to handle those experiences while minimizing the adrenaline dump and tunnel vision which leads to bad decisions

Sensible, middle class, white and black people are learning an invaluable lesson on voting. They have no one to blame but themselves. I am asking Governor DeSantis to ban all migration to FL from liberal failed cities and states. The morons will move but not change their voting habits.

The point is that police don't get the training they should.



And my point is that saying they should spend 25% of their time training is a ludicrous statement not based in any sort of reality. What we SHOULD do and what we realistically CAN do are two different things. We should start at what we CAN do and figure out the best solution from there.

I mean screw saying they should spend 25% of the time training. Let's start at "all police should have a minimum of a Master's Degree in Criminal Justice with at least a minor or separate Bachelor's in Social Work, they should have at least two years experience in pre-hospital medicine, the same amount of experience in dealing with in-patient mental health and be at least 6', 250 lbs with a low BMI so they can easily handle all suspects."

Your small town Barney's are one thing. In the vast majority of cities police do quite a bit of all kinds of training, obviously way more than what you realize. In the fire service we train all the time also, we still gonna frick up though

A couple of questions come to mind. Let's say this passes, would your property tax go down? Of course not, they'll use the taxes on something else. Next, would it be possible that they could use this to usher in sharia law?

Minneapolis can join California, Chicago, NYC, Portland, and Seattle.

No. Just trying to illustrate that this crap infuriates even those in the same party.

Both sides pull a lot of crap. You just wear rose colored glasses for one side.

I fear that all of this is a Trojan Horse to allow the implementation of Sharia Law in Minneapolis.

Good. Let Minneapolis rot from the inside out.

Trump only lost Minnesota by 40k votes (1.5%) in 2016. The good people of Minnesota are fed up with the stupidity of Minneapolis and this is going to push thousands of Independents and moderate Democrats to his side in November.

Only one side is attacking the 2nd amendment and wants to remove your ability to fight back against these domestic terrorists. Take a gander at Biden’s views on gun control. Combine that with abolishing police and you will have a lawless disaster of a country.

If you’d have told me in say 1984 when I was the same age as these college age millennials that in the year 2020 we’d have an American city council that voted 12-0 in favor of doing away with their police department I swear I’d have thought you were off you’re rocker.

It’s funny. In the 70’s we quite literally thought we’d be in flying cars by now.

In the 80’s I just thought we’d have colonized Mars by now and on our way outside the solar system.

NOW, I just want to survive the plague of idiocracy for the next couple of decades or so until I egress out of this place and let them have at it.

No they’ll just blame racism or something and say it’ll work next time.

Kind of how like communism never has worked like communists want it to yet they still say it’ll work next time around.

I agree with all of this but I’d say any man healthy fit over 180 could do the job
