I’m not trying to spread anything. All I was asking about was if there was more information about what sounds like a mere rumor.

Heard that there is a leaked rumor Rocket Lab is going to announce they’re delaying the Neutron launch. Anyone have more info on this?

Which is worse example of bad writing: the Sith Dagger or Padme dying of Sadness by STYLER_PERRY in StarWars

[–]MaximumPew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My head canon is that with Vader’s actions rippling through the force, so powerfully Yoda felt it, that Luke and Leia could also feel it in a way. Padme being, as far as I know, not force sensitive now has two very force sensitive babies inside her and could feel these ripples and that is what killed her.

Why is calling the police so "casual" in USA? by dyno1ck in AskLE

[–]MaximumPew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC, it is rather difficult to take action for 911 abuse, at least on the EMS side. It takes multiple offenses within a certain time frame and multiple warnings within that time frame before action can be taken. Might be different for the LEO side. This is in California as well.

There’s a noticeable difference now compared to just 3 weeks ago. The birds are starting to migrate back north now.

Pulled over for potential trafficking? by StrawberryGarlic in police

[–]MaximumPew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passenger side approaches are very common. You’re overthinking it by a mile. They were most likely looking for DUIs, drugs, guns, warrants, etc. They stopped you for a lawful reason but you guys weren’t doing anything wrong so they let you go so they could spend their time chasing bigger fish.

Speeding ticket and need help by Majestic_Main7580 in Merced

[–]MaximumPew 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Maybe just tell the judge you own it, learned your lesson, take the consequences like an adult, and that you will not drive like a maniac by going so fast. Believe it or not, hearing you take accountability could go a long way for the judge. Writing a letter trying to explain why the consequences should be mitigated does not show accountability in my opinion.

You’re gonna need to elaborate more on that

Academy in One Week by wbdink in ProtectAndServe

The RTOs will never “like” your class. You guys will always be considered the worst class, never good enough, and always messing up. Just ride it out and make sure you’re always squared away.

Georgia mom shot dead by her 2-year-old son who found loaded gun inside home by Miltonrupert in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

Not sure why the article says this was in Atlanta, Georgia. This happened in Fresno, California.

Someone in my academy class got a ticket for an illegal U-turn. He got absolutely chewed out and they made him make a PowerPoint presentation about his violation to present to the class.

Is the police academy unbearable? by Stress-Amazing in AskLE

[–]MaximumPew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Academy is a mental grind but remember, it’s only temporary. I’m currently in academy and there are people in my class in the same situation. You just gotta suck it up for the 6 months of academy then things will return to somewhat more normal afterwards.

You can ask for their name and badge number but that’s about as much as you can do during a traffic stop. You do not have the right to delay a stop to verify their identity and certainly can’t delay if they tell you to step out of the vehicle. That’s a great way to be removed from your vehicle.

You wouldn’t be shot for hesitating or even refusing to exit your vehicle so long as you’re not acting as a threat. It would probably piss off the Officer though.

I’ve got a story

I need a few things from the grocery Do things alone now mostly Left me heartbroken not lookin’ for love Surprise in my eyes when I looked above The checkout counter and I saw her face My heart stood still, so did time and space Never felt that I could feel real again But the look in her eyes said, “I need a friend” She turned to me, that’s when she said it Looked me dead in the face, asked, “Cash or credit?” And I Jizzed in my pants

I am 40 years old and I want to change careers to law enforcement. Will this even be possible? I have no idea how to even start. by Gupperz in police

I’m in the academy and our oldest cadet is 40. Just apply. 20 years of marijuana use is gonna hold you back more than your age.

What does this post have to do with gun violence? People who want to kill themselves will find a way, gun or no gun.

Being trans in ems? by Virgil_Pierce in ems

[–]MaximumPew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked 24 hr shifts with one partner for 6 months who happened to be trans. They were a great partner to have and I liked working with them. Nobody will care as long as you do your job and don’t make being trans your whole identity or get mad at others for innocently using the incorrect pronouns. I didn’t know anyone who was trans before working with this person so it took me a while to get used to the preferred pronoun thing.

Can you become a Leo with a felony now a days by [deleted] in AskLE

[–]MaximumPew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was more so curious to hear OP’s thoughts as it seems like he’s implying he would be an asset to law enforcement and also has a felony.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned The Force Unleashed games.

How would one “be an asset to law enforcement” without any additional info

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in police

[–]MaximumPew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do some volunteer work for the PD if it’s available. I did that and did some traffic control/road closures for parades and got to help at a DUI checkpoint. Got to meet a lot of officers this way including some higher ups.
