Major Hat Tip to Everyday No Days Off Blog.
An individual that's upset about response time AND the fact that he was assaulted is further humiliated by the people that he called to help.
Worse. It was a Marine Vet versus an active duty Soldier.
We can play reindeer games all day about the different services but in the end its all a brotherhood.
But not in this case.
I went here and it seems that they kneeled on the guys while he was down. I don't know if that's academy taught or if they just do it on the street but that is bad tactics. It can cause death if done for too long.
If the cop isn't given some days off or worse then that tells you all you need to know.
But to bring it full circle. These are the same cops that supposedly deal with Bloods, Crips, MS-13, Mexican Mafia, Biker Gangs, Aryan Nation and Asian Gangs etc....so with that being the case and with them able to slam soldiers without regret then why does Dorner scare them so much?
Responding to a 9-1-1 call 45 minutes after the call? A prime example of why police have no responsibility to stop or interrupt crime.

that's how he responds to the kid bringing up the slow response time?
Power is addictive and this guy is operating with a short fuse. Maybe he was having a bad day, but it doesn't excuse his donut-eating, slow-responding ass from slapping people down.
I'm a believer that people in high-stress jobs like corrections and LE need to rotate out of patrol jobs just like military units rotate periodically out of theater.
It takes psychological toll on people when they are kept on the 'front-lines' for too long.
I used to work in a pub, once upon a time, there was a gypsy group in the area carrying out "aggressive" robberies on pubs.
DeleteSo, we installed a police sponsored panic button system.
And not long after, we were hit one Saturday afternoon. They cleared the till, informed the boss he could open the safe or they would chop a hand off and ask again, took all the spirits and were on their merry way.
A lone female police officer turned up Sunday Evening to investigate why we had pressed the panic button, she got quite annoyed when the staff had no idea why the panic button had been pressed, eventually they clocked it was from the day befores robbery....
I make a point to stay far away from the Police they draw fire and shoot back and too often a bystander gets injured or killed. Always looking to make arrests you simply cannot speak to them as a fellow human being. The Police always see the citizen guilty of something, it goes with the job seeing law breakers every day.
