This Moment In Tyranny brought to you by the JBTs at the Kendall County Sheriff’s Department.
If she brought a dog with her the dog would have died for sure.

So many dumba$$es have made their way into law enforcement I don’t trust my fellow law enforcement officers outside of my county/disctrict.

Not everyone in police work was meant to be in the field.

Unfortunately, the only way the ones who shouldn't be in the field are weeded out is usually through tragedy and creates unnecessary victims.
I really wish there was a less taxing weeding out process......but that would also entail a better hiring process.
And I have no idea how it can be fixed, aside from the usual libertarian solution of "get rid of or disband all law enforcement".

I read the article.
I can see why the deputy pulled his weapon. I don’t condone it, but if some ass-clown shoved me, I’d get mad too.
But I would not pull a gun over it.

I’d say the deputy is lucky that the other guy wasn’t carrying. If someone pulled a gun on me without identifying himself as an LEO, and I was carrying at the time, there would be shooting.

I think that becoming a cop should be like other professions like carpenter or electrician. There should be apprentice, journeyman, and master phases. It should not be done on a whim or because the bottom dropped out of your current profession.
Starting prospective cops young gets administrators, trainers and recruiters a long time to assess whether that prospect can pack the gear.
I did a background and oral board of a female last year who used a grant to go through the police academy and has been sitting on her ample duff for the last three years of unemployment or other gov handouts. She had no family in LE and no clue what she was doing.
Needless to say, she was not even considered and primarily it was her work ethic that did her in.

I can see why the deputy pulled his weapon If some jerk got into my wife's face and started yelling at her in line at the Wal-Mart, I'd be wiping the floor with his face before he had time to pull a gun out.
And if he did get the gun out, he'd better kill me with the first shot, because after that I'd be inserting the bullets up his rectum, manually.

I commend the board on not caving to political correctness.....which is probably the number one reason we're in the predicament we're in, with law enforcement and even in the military.

If you shopping cart looks like this...
**...or if there is even a question that you have more than 20 items, hows about shufflin your butt over to the next lane with the conveyor belt and waiting your turn like all the rest of the large cart pushers. See that lane has a conveyor belt for a reason, it can hold 57 cans of best choice pinto beans no problem. The "speedy" checkout has a counter. A counter just large enough to hold 20 average items. So, when I am standing behind you in the "speedy" checkout with a package of batteries and your putting your 39th box of fishsticks on the counter, I start to scan the magazine rack looking for something that I can stab you with.**

Exactly!
I picked up on that right away. And to further add insult to injury these two idiots (with more than 20 items) were not even ready to check out in the first place.
We see that as the article indicates the husband was still out shopping for eggs.
The article also alluded to the idea the couple was on welfare. And that explains a lot. The entitlement mentality that idiots have that allows them to cut in line, or get in an express line with 20 or more items, and even holding up the line while hubby shops for even more food is beyond belief.
Unfortunately for this poor off-duty deputy, he over reacted and is now in trouble.

I've been in a check-out line, with more than 12 items inmy wagon when the CDC [supervising person who is monitoring lines and cashiers] and herded me into a speedy check-out lane. And variably a *legitimate-under-12* customer will come along behind me, and give me a dirty look, b/c I have more than 12 items. Oi!
The mention of * welfare* was made by the detective, IIRC...he's the one projecting.
Internal investigations are often pointless.
