Pony, if I were fixated on cop issues, I would be on ALL cop related threads. I skip the overwhelming majority of them. And for being extremely critical, I can't hold a candle to those who say that all cops are crooks, liars, paid murderers, and jack booted thugs.

I did not meant to imply that you were fixated or critical. I said I had seen lots of posts here that border on fixation, but I did not mean yours. If it came across that way, I apologize.

…once that happens, the discussion gets out of control. So please understand that I'm not going to address the rest of your post.

I understand. And perhaps an open forum isn’t the appropriate place for that discussion.

You come across as a reasonable poster who is interested in what is truthful. It isn't that some issues cannot be discussed in an open forum, it's that once the subject matter expands it gets out of control and very personal.

I was on one thread where it went ballistic and the mod finally pulled it because of the name calling and nastiness. I was on another and I got banned as a troll. I asked a question earlier in the thread and it went downhill from there. It's simply my experience to try to narrow the discussion because past experience has shown how quickly it degenerates.
