The NYPD publicly admitted in a lawsuit that they won’t hire people that score “too high” on the IQ tests they conduct during interviews.

They don’t want smart people. Smart people ask questions. Law enforcement has been militarized for decades, they don’t want questions, they want thugs that will shoot first and ask questions never.

Every time I go to the range now, I’ll thank Charlie for dying so that I can own this rifle that I bought long before he was relevant or caught one in the neck.

May he rest in piss.

“Can you explain this gap in your resume”

“I was providing full time care for a critically ill family member”

There’s no database of jobs you’ve held in your life. Getting fired only screws you over if you tell the next place that you got fired. If they do a check and find posts, just says it’s a different person with your name. Also, stop cataloging your life on social media for anyone to research, it has never helped anyone.

She’s still probably panicking.

If she’s fired, she could get discharged. If they force a dishonorable discharge on her, that’s a 20 year military pension that just went out the window. I’d be losing my shit if I lost a pension that I was already vested in.

The first amendment has never protected people from losing their jobs. If I go in one day and call my boss an incompetent, micromanaging asshole, I’ll get fired. I can’t just yell first amendment and keep my job.

Now if you call your representative and tell them they’re an incompetent, cowardly, fascist piece of shit, and then you get arrested, well now that would be a first amendment issue.

city that would accept a troop presence

If they bent over any harder they’d be licking their own asses.

So if I became the Director General of Police for India, I should just wear whatever I want? In my culture, slacks and a pollo is pretty formal, so I should just run a state police force while looking like I’m on a golf outing?

I’m pretty sure the FBI has a dress code

Oswald was a marine.

His target was moving and he had a very limited line of site, and still managed to hit 2 out of 3 shots.

That kinda shit is what professional shooters can do.

This was 1 shot at a fairly standard range on a target literally sitting in a chair on a well lit stage. You don’t need to be a professional to make that shot. I’ve had friends on their first day shooting make shots like that with a decent rifle, some coaching, and about 10 rounds of practice at shorter ranges.

Cause they didn’t lock down the school, they evacuated everyone.

AP news has videos of hundreds of students being ushered out of a building after the shot was fired.
