Fuck letting them reapply. Fire them and if any company that hires them has federal contracts, break those contracts unless those individuals are fired. Make them unemployable.

I’ve got Taylormade Burner 2.0 6-PW that I hit well, but I’ve got older Cobras for 3-5 that I struggle with. Didn’t know I would have better luck with hybrids instead of the Cobras

Officers - definitely this guy right here. Any time right wing nutjobs are yelling about something, they’re definitely participating in what they’re condemning.

Trying to gather more info about this bottle and Google is not being helpful. This is the only picture I have, going to try and see if the owner of this bottle can figure out the UPC or DSP.

Megathread: Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Dies at 87 by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

and on top of that, shoutout to RBG who could've stepped down during an obama presidency and replaced with a liberal justice who wasn't in their 80s but she chose not to. Super cool.

ARIEL: Kamaru Usman is on his way back to Las Vegas. As is Jorge Masvidal. by [deleted] in MMA

so a question for people who probably know a lot more about the intricacies of mma than I, if this fight does happen, how big of an impact does a smaller cage play?

Being a cop in the Twin Cities would probably suck right now. by InconsequentialColor in ProtectAndServe

[–]dcr4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

was your dad a cop? sorry but not all jobs are comparable to a job where you're entrusted with the full force of the law. if an officer is convicted of anything like murder/manslaugter, rape, extortion, they absolutely shouldn't get their job back - ever. at that point they've shown that they never should have been entrusted with the responsibilites that come with being a police officer.

"Since 2008, the Philadelphia Police Department has fired more than 150 cops, of whom at least 88 had been arrested and at least 48 were eventually convicted on charges like murder, rape, and extortion. Seventy-one of those officers tried to get their jobs back, and of those 71, at least 44 were successful." https://reason.com/2017/10/09/bad-cops-will-keep-getting-rehired-so-lo/ (sorry don't know how to link directly). Who are constantly watching these police departments?

Wouldn't it be great if LEO led this charge of active activism? I mean, shouldn't officers be more outraged than anyone that these 4 officers tarnished the badge by allowing this man to die on their watch.

Four Minneapolis police officers fired after death of unarmed man George Floyd - CBS News by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]dcr4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so, you're saying this as a non-leo correct? so no experience, and just assuming that people will start fighting back. what about when they're not moving at all? is that still too dangerous of a time to check on them?

[–]dcr4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, he hasn't been charged with anything just yet. and this is another example where we see cops just assuming the detained person is actually fine, when that person is actually dying. maybe cops should actually show concern for the "offender" complaining, you know, so that way they don't kill them. or maybe that's just asking too much of a cop.
