you mean the same laws and rules that government is supposed to follow but doesn't?

They are the worse. Laws don’t apply to them. They enforce the laws, not follow the law. They are leaders not followers.

I can't see a way that a rear-end collision = death for the person hit without a high rate of speed.

And yes - law enforcement consistently breaks traffic laws in response...

Damage control in action...

Silence in these matters equals no good.

Meanwhile every time I'm on the highway it feels like I spend the whole time avoiding people who are going dangerously slow, swerving into occupied lanes, or just acting like someone who has no clue what is going on around them. There is an accident EVERY DAY during my commute, and 5+ years ago that seemed to be limited to once or twice a week.

It’s not you man. This whole goddamn society has become super ADD and can’t focus on anything at all. The last 10-15 years have really catered to providing information quickly and easily, not just cell phones - but they’re the main driver. Phones have gotten so good at easily accessing information, along with Facebook twitter and wherever else that anytime we lose focus for just a second we can go off and get sidetracked.

And since we are stupid non-self aware children, we just allow ourselves to get consumed and get nothing done.

I’m not immune to it. But I’m self aware enough to know that it can become a problem and address it.

I'm not talking about law enforcement responding to an emergency. And even then, they can't drive recklessly.



This isn't what was going on here anyway.

I agree. I just have it when one cop screws it up for the rest of us...because now we are all dirtbags. I also hate it that people can't differentiate between the wo/man and the uniform.

That's because the rest of the cops and they union work to protect that dirtbag cop. Like DJ posted earlier, there wasn't even a police report on it available until the kcstar printed something

I back the badge 9 times out of 10 - I ain't gonna do that job and someone needs to. The overwhelming majority of LEOs are there for the right reason and do an exceptional job of it.

But I do get frustrated as hell when otherwise good cops will bury their heads in the sand and/or actively hide malfeasance from one of their own.

It's the one thing that makes me take pause when I defend the law enforcement community writ large. There absolutely ARE times when they circle the wagons around a piece of shit exclusively because he's an officer and that's a black mark on the profession for sure.

Cops are second grade playground bullies with badges. Doesn’t take much to stay out of their way, obey their orders and always back the blue.

I know it's easy to think conspiracy, but sometimes those things take time. You want to get them right.

See this is the point...you're not even involved and you're still trying to defend it. It should not take the KC star writing an article for a police report to be provided 2 weeks later. You think it would have taken that long if it was a civilian?

In the past it was to arrest the first black guy who couldn't make bail or afford an attorney. When it's one of your own then you want to get the facts right?ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

I'm not "defending it" rather offering a plausible explanation. I don't jump to conspiracy theory right away. I don't know much about KCMO PD but I doubt there is some next level LAPD dark ops shit. But I could be wrong, time will tell.
