The storm looks like it is moving out of the area but they do have to wait 30 minutes I believe. -

Because sex, not money, is the most powerful attractant in the Earth. It causes murders, suicides, making fortunes, losing fortunes, reward, punishment, blackmail, wars, depression, marriages, divorces, Supreme Court decisions, lawsuits, etc. It’s not that money can’t cause the same but the emotional power is much more concentrated, compelling and is constant. -
You mean 3 Hispanic POC made the statements.

I think the money is the free enterprise system. She is getting in in what many people are doing. I wish that I could jump into that arena. Simply look at Candace Owens, Brandon Tatum, The Hodge Twins, Diamond and Silk, etc. -

Just a guess but if it is a student involved, it could possibly be anything from sexting to sex with an adult who happens to be a student somewhere in the same district, improper recording or sexual assault of a child. Mainly I am saying that it doesn’t have to be sexual assault. -

She has nowhere to go. I think it is a money making strategy. -

While you can find an opinion on anything, this certainly doesn’t exist in this state or any others that I know of. -

Here is the huge difference. There always have been and always will be fringe elements of any stance. That isn’t new. The difference today is that individually there are people who are far out on either side but the parties are not. The GOP/RNC isn’t putting out any radical agenda. We can always say the nut job who lives at the end of the street and who supports Trump (or anyone else) is crazy. For the Democrats, it isn’t the nut job at the end of the block, it is the party. In fact, several times I have said in this forum that the rank and file Democrats probably don’t think nearly the way the Democrat leadership does. They are either stuck backing the home team or more likely, completely ignorant as to what is happening. When Florida passed a law that teachers can’t talk about transgenderism or sex changes until they are 10 years old and the Democrats went crazy, it wasn’t crazy Bob down the street but the Dem’s leadership including the White House. Therein lies the difference. The fringe has always existed. Right now the DNC “is” the fringe. -

You are too eaten up with your TDS or just tossing flames for entertainment. If Trump lovers controlled the RNC then it would not take Trump going out solo to endorse who he wants. He is hardly the darling of the GOP leadership so I don’t know who you are claim are controlling the Republicans. -

Maybe she wanted her own October Surprise payback for the defamation the DNC has hammered her with. Timing is sometimes everything. Has she stated this a year ago, it would not even be news now. With less than a month coming up before the general election, it now has practically everyone, even people that truly don’t like politics, flapping their gums, -

And publicly at least until this point, she hasn’t recanted any of her positions that she ran on as a Democrat. I saw one tweet where c she was rethinking her stance on private gun ownership. I think people are assuming some things about her that has not happened or been stated by her. -

I don’t think she has switched parties. She was just calling out Democrats for their utter stupidity. -
A couple of days ago on Facebook a guy made a comment saying that the officer was wrong because he should have asked what the problem was, de-escalate the situation or whatever. My follow up comment to him was, what questions would you have asked while a guy is coming at you with a machete? I was less than shocked that he still hasn’t responded.

They can be extremely effective and in many or probably a majority of cases end a use of force incident instantly. It is maybe 90-95% effective against people who are not jacked up on drugs. It is both extremely painful and if there is enough spread on the darts/fish hooks, it can lock up large muscle groups. In one case I shocked a possibly armed man who was in a small restroom at a restaurant. He was making threats and we believed he had a knife. To keep from having to possibly kill him we were going to use the original Taser which is far different than what is available today. It kind of looked like the old Eveready 6v lantern battery flashlights. BUT…. and this is protocol today, if a Taser is going to be used on a potential armed suspect, we must be prepared to apply deadly force instantly. That means one officer at least must be in the range to use the Taser (like 12 feet) which is much too close to a person with a knife or even club. In this case I was the unarmed (no deadly force weapons in hand) and had to rely on other officers behind me to use deadly force if needed. Basically we had to pull the door open placing me within about 6 feet of a guy with a knife, if he was armed. That tends to get your blood pressure cranked up. One officer had empty hands to take him down in a fight if needed, one had a pistol and the other a shotgun. The guy was unarmed but when I hit him with the Taser he shot out of that restroom and we had a heck of a struggle getting him in custody. My sergeant who was on scene (the hands on officer) said he looked like a bottle rocket coming out of there. A point in this case was, it put me in a potentially extremely dangerous position to try to keep from just killing this guy. There were no rules and said we had to use a Taser and that kind of situation. We don’t hear that in the media however. The next time we were at yet another restaurant where another officer and I tried to get a drunk a ride home since he was passed out in the restaurant. This guy was about 300 pounds and decided to fight instead of taking a cab home. He charged and the other officer who sidestepped him in a great move and shoved him to the ground with us yelling for him to stay down. Wellll…. not when you are drunk. He came at me and I shot him with a Taser but 1 dart either didn’t hit him or it got ripped out. He threw my partner against the wall and made a Taser could have been used on his back but it is a one shot weapon and has to be manually reloaded. I used it as a stun gun (which doesn’t stun but is excruciatingly painful) and drove it into his back to get him off of my partner. He stood up looking away from me and picked up a metal sign made with square pipes. He swung it like a baseball bat at me but I couldn’t see it coming but the other officer could but couldn’t stop it. At literally the last moment I saw it and put my left arm up to try and block a pipe being swung by a 300 pound guy. Fortunately I caught part of the blow with my arm. The pipe still hit my face. My partner saw so much blood fly that he thought it knocked my eye out. I grabbed my face in an instant reaction and could feel the cuts open up. I was pretty much covered in blood and threw my Taser down and used my Asp metal baton. That ended it. I spent a couple of hours in the hospital that day, I think the 5th time in the line of duty. My left arm had about a 3 inch bruise from my wrist to my elbow where it took much of the blow. They X-rayed my hand twice because it hurt to move my fingers but there was no broken bones. I opted to had my left eyebrow glued back together in two places rather than being sutured. The reason for the stories is to emphasize the potential failures of a Taser at the risk of sn officers’s life. I almost lost my eye, possibly my life and spent time in the hospital from using a Taser in what was an unarmed man. So I have used one twice and neither time did it stop the attack and 1 time really cost me. I still think they are an awesome tool but the notion that an officer would face a deadly threat with a Taser is beyond stupid. I could give you other failures in my own department and at least two of which ended up causing a death, one from the Taser adding to a man’s injuries (I witnessed that one) and the other failure caused the suspect to be shot and killed.
