No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

I grew up around a cop in SLC. He was a high up in the SLC Sheriff's office. I have a few retired cop friends and cop clients now as well. They are solid people. Even so, there are too many shootings, too many itchy trigger fingers. Like I said on another thread, demilitarization of the police should be the goal and if that is what defunding the police means, I am for it.

These are among my all time favorite types of Good Cop videos.

I'd join these lines in a NY minute. There's a ton for Cupid Shuffle because everyone knows it I'll try not to be too redundant.


THIS is how you protest. LE and the Guard should be doing this in every protest/riot city. I'm NOT joking. Music unites. Weapons create hostility.

Police join protesters for the 'Cupid Shuffle'

Watch: National Guard members dance with protesters in Downtown Atlanta (Electric Slide and Macarena also well known by line dancers)

More lines.

This one has a great set up:

Unfortunately, I don't know of any good cops. The cops in Hineseville Ga, where my Dad lived while stationed at Ft. Stewart, were corrupt as all get out. Later I learned that the entire dept was ousted after it was revealed they were dealing drugs to military. When I was on my mission, I knew one member of the Church who was a cop in Santa Ana, and he was one of the most vile racists I had ever met. He had a particularly strong contempt for Asians for some reason. The cops in my town are assholes, and I know people who look foreign are treated very differently, especially at the detention center in Canton.
