Former LAPD officer on rampage in So Cal (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=269787)

@BreakingNews: Update: Police say they will reopen investigation that led to firing of fugitive ex-LAPD officer - @AP http://t.co/9o730jkX

They keep looking like a bunch of ****ing idiots.

LAPD: "Uh yeah, maybe we got this one wrong guys. How about we open the case back up and see if we can find Evans guilty"

So the lady that was shot, the LAPD gave her a new truck lol. So thoughtful.

Can brain damage actually add IQ points?

Edit: That being said, most cops are out there just for a paycheck. Unfortunately, they generally don't speak up against the ones who are overly aggressive and are cops so they can bully, maim, and have power.

I wouldnt really argue too hard with any of that, i've also read about the zoot suit riots... but i think what gets missed sometimes is the unreal stress that the average beat cop is under in a huge, and lets be honest, VERY violent place like LA.

My mother worked for law enforcement for 23 years, i had the chance to meet many, many cops of various prominence and rank, most of them in springfield illinois, a town no bigger than 200k, and even in a town that size the stories i've heard would raise the hair on your neck, i cant even imagine all of the danger and horrible things seen by a cop patrolling some bad 'hood in a place like LA.

What i know for sure, is that when some of those guys have seen enough they get jaded and hardened, which results in the weaker, bad seed types doing the kinds of things we all hate to hear about... but you cant dismiss all of the good ones who are out there risking their lives to help keep your neighborhood safe.

Is this true? I get the feeling they know people are going to start digging and they are trying to get out in front of it.

My mother's side of the family are cops (my grandfather for 40 years, my uncle and aunt retired from KCPD, my step dad). I grew up around the PD. I've been in the KCPD helicopter, I've met the canines, my uncle did crime scene investigation). I know cops pretty well (it's saved my ass on more than one occasion).

Being a police officer is not a high stress job unless you make it one.

Edit: KC is also a very violent place.

Well no, it certainly isnt horseshit, i'll take your word for what you say but dont tell me i dont know what the hell i'm talking about.

No most cops dont have to pull their pistol, but i've heard many tales of someone else trying to pull their gun on them in a scuffle, or dealing with some bs code of silence while trying to solve a murder, or seeing how people raise their kids up close, eight year old kids with custom t-shirts that say on the back "i aint afraid a no po-po" hell one guy i met who was from a bad neighborhood and chose to live there after becoming a cop had his daughter gangraped... so **** you for calling bs on the fact that many of those guys see and deal with some bad stuff every single day.

It will harden a man and make him very aggressive.

If you live in any type of lower class neighborhood, you experience the same thing. The difference is that you don't get to clock out. The Cops do.

Here is the FBI data for Officers killed in the line of duty. Note the small number. Being a police officer exposes people to the same thing social workers see everyday. No one makes the argument that social workers have one of the most stressful jobs due to what they see. Why should a cop be excused for bad behavior due to a "stressful" job when we don't make the same exceptions for social workers, fire fighters, etc?

Law enforcement agencies reported that 54,774 officers were assaulted while performing their duties in 2011.
The rate of officer assaults in 2011 was 10.2 per 100 sworn officers.
