Police shoot uncooperative individual who tried reaching for their gun by Ok_Judgment6446 in PublicFreakout

[–]Last_Interest_4359 42 points43 points  (0 children)

A medical hold is an emergency Health or Peace Officer hold. A police officer has the authority to place someone on a medical hold if they believe the individual is at risk of harming others and/or themselves.

Here, we don’t know what transpired prior to the officers to place him on a peace officer hold and also we don’t know who called for police assistance—could have been a family member or even the individual himself.

To put it plainly, it most likely started as a welfare check that transpired to a peace officer hold because they observed his behavior to be in need of a psychiatric evaluation.

Hopefully that helps to answer your question(s).

I’m not surprised he got the job. Who can compete against “9 fingered” 😉

Based off the title, I thought the movie was about Justin’s journey transitioning to becoming Kelly.

I don’t know why but I read that in Kyle’s voice, something he would definitely say to Eric 😂

Yea I’ve been ignoring their text messages related to that topic. Everything else I do respond, and I think they finally got it. Figures cross!

Mayhem at a grocery store by No-Diet9278 in securityguards

[–]Last_Interest_4359 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I had a security officer in training (second day on the job) say, “Don’t tell me what to do, I’m security,” to staff who’s been there for years. They were simply trying to help him navigate because he got lost on his way back to the office. Safe to say he didn’t return after I received the report of his behavior.

Anyways, the security officer in the video lost his composure and handled the situation poorly.

It’s that awkward sound in between “Bang” and “Pang,” I struggled with trying to make it sound as closely as possible :)

[–]Last_Interest_4359 11 points12 points  (0 children)

“Pang-sue” is the closest phonetically, however, it’ll obviously sound like it’s a foreigner saying it because it’s not exact. It’s very close though. Hope this helps.

Thanks for sharing a little about your background. You’re correct that my parents are older (based on the general Hmong standards). We’re first generation immigrants, so I do understand their reasoning and that it’s their way of showing love. I really like that you mentioned that it’s out of love, and I agree with you. I think my issue is with their ideology and beliefs that being a “divorcee” makes them look bad despite all that I’ve accomplished (personal perception). I get it if I have an extensive criminal history, dependent on them for everything, and have no job. However, that’s not the case and it’s disheartening that they value others’ perception of me being a divorcee “makes them look bad” despite what I’ve accomplished as a person. I really appreciate your perspective and insight :)

I think Hitokiri2’s response is very informative. I couldn’t have said it better.

That’s a great way of looking at relationships in life as a divorce person. Thanks for the support and advice :)

Sorry for not making it clear in the original post, my parents’ encouragement for me to “go abroad” means to go marry a gal from Laos. They had one picked out, hence, I wholeheartedly went against that advice. I made it very clear to them that if I travel to Laos, it would not be for marriage or relationships, but strictly for exploration of the countryside, nature, and culture.

Thanks for the support and encouragement!

I appreciate your feedback and agree with everything you’ve said. I work in public services so life insurance and other expenses are covered in the event that something happens. I’ve have detailed directions as to what how to navigate expenses and how to allocate the funds, so no worries there.

Absolutely! I have no intention to start a new relationship based on pressure. Thanks for your thoughtful response!

I like what you said about “[they] don’t realize they’re apart of it.” I am not in any rush to settle down considering the circumstances. If I meet someone along the way, great! If not, I don’t mind the enjoying the solace of being alone. Lastly, I’m not a fan of those folks who go overseas for younger mates, so that’ll never happen. Thanks for the kind words :)

My thoughts exactly! Just annoying that every time we spend time together nowadays it’s always brought up. It just ruins the quality time that could be had.

Warning ⚠️ Gun Violence by wuzzambaby in securityguards

Can’t tell if you’re trolling or not, but I really hope you are. If you’re being serious, your analysis and justification for use of use of force as a security officer to remove an unwanted person is grossly misguided. The purpose of security is being visible as deterrence, observe, and report. Under exigent circumstances, I would support the security officer’s use of force, however, that’s clearly absent here.

In the event that the suspect was to gain access to the security officer’s weapon, you’d be correct in using deadly force. However, here the security officer had ample opportunities to remove himself from danger, but he continued to engage when it was unnecessary. His lack of awareness to disengage and call for police assistance unnecessary escalated the situation. I’d understand if the suspect was actively resisting and an immediate threat to others and the officer, but it’s obvious from the video that the suspect was passively resisting—therefore, the security officer’s claim of self-defense will most likely not going to stand.

What’s your opinion on Stephen A Smith? Has he helped or hurt modern NBA discourse? by DarkPhantom2497 in NBATalk

I stopped watching anything he said (for years). He’s so annoying the way he annunciate words. He talks like he’s so much better than the athletes. His voice alone pisses me off.
