WAPO: American Police Could Help Themselves By Shooting Less, Talking More
Breitbart.com ^ | June 12, 2015 | Awr Hawkins

On June 11 The Washington Post intimated that police in America might not face the tensions they currently face if they shot less and talked more. The Post reached this verdict via a comparison between the tactics of “lightly armed” British police and those of heavily armed Americans.

Since it’s only liberals being shot, I am not surprised WAPO is mad.

I’m the last one to support rouge police but all this type of talk is generally from people who have no idea what the job is like and will be the first to scream when the thug elements starts messing with them.

You can not compare the British Police and the American Police. The laws are not the same. The system is not the same. The conditions and situations are not the same.

staying completely clear of the bad neighborhoods must help a lot. oh, and ignoring massive child rape and prostitution perpetrated by muzzies.
does the com-post want us to follow their example?

Put this author in a dark alley in mid city looking for a crazed man with a machete. Can’t we all get along?

Two policeman call their station on the radio.

“Hello, is this Sarge?”

“Yes.”

“We have a case here. A woman has shot her husband for stepping on her clean, just mopped floor.”

“Have you arrested her?”

“No Sir. the floor is still wet!”

Lazy, “journalist” clowns advising the police on how to do their jobs. LOL! This country is a flippin’ joke.

H/T to our FRiend Biggirl for the post.

Comparing the USA and the disarmed society of the UK is comapring apples to gunstones...

Case in point, the analysis I did on the 2011 London/UK Riots showing how things went down in a pacified society (coming to a CVS pharmacy nearest you)...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
Isaiah 21:6

Well you see, in Britain they brilliantly solved the problem of child rape by declaring that the children are prostitutes.

If you add a pimp in England it’s not child rape.

Silly colonial.

I doubt the UK cops are contending with the kind of violent criminals that the US cops are. Most of our violent gangbangers are involved in drug wars or some other illegal activities and would be carrying guns and killing each other even if guns or weapons of any kind were as illegal here as they are in the UK. It seems that libs have a totally closed mind on subjects like this and not even verifiable stats, not to mention common sense, that clearly show they’re wrong don’t penetrate their thick skulls.

We have white police and black police, and now rouge police too? That should make it interesting, if they decide to go rogue. (Sorry, couldn’t resist playing spelling police. The temptation was too great.)
