Well, that was a balanced and informative article steeped in the traditions of the finest journalism ... of the Soviet Union.

Portland had 73 recent prospects but only 3 made it through background checks.

Now Portland has to hire people with GED’s to refill the depleted ranks of their police force.

just full of testosterone.

I'm increasingly seeing buffed, bulked-up cops who clearly appear to be users of anabolic steroids. Perhaps this is contributing to the situation.

Still not good at all even at 8.

And it still fits in with the trend of cops resigning in many places like Buffalo, Minneapolis, and especially so in places like Portland that is seriously depleted.

And when and where did that happen?

Or is that just a figment of your trollish imagination?

Was it a wild ass guess or logical? Those things don’t go together. False witness, BS.. those fit.

Good point. While we are working on police reform, we should work on citizen reform too.

Citizen Reform:

Don’t break the law
Don’t tolerate criminal or gang activity - definitely snitch
Behave responsibly and teach your children to do the same
In short, BE GOOD CITIZENS

As the officers moral plummets the rise in crime will rise proportionally. I see bad things in Atlanta’s future.

It happens from time to time. Life and all and no way to know when it will occur.

Fox News reported 19 as well as did a few others.

That’s why Breaking News around here can get burned and I’m glad I didn’t place this there.

I have heard something about child abuse but didn’t know about the particulars.

Why couldn’t he just not drink and drive?

I just checked and APD has roughly 2,000 on the force. I wonder what percent of those will really resign.

Tough time to be a cop.

That’s the danger of placing these in breaking news when Fox News reported on this being 19 and I noticed it from them and it being pretty much hot off the press.

What’s funny is that this CBS46 source said 19 in their original title.

Hmmm.

Because he’s HIM and HIM don’t have to not drink and drive if HIM don’t want to. It’s a new world. Rules are flexible and racially dispensed.

You know what no one wants to discuss, is how atrocious black Democrats have been in leadership positions. A possible exception could be made for Harold Washington of Chicago in the 80s.

It is the same here in CT.

Our tiny state has 169 municipalities.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_towns_in_Connecticut

Many of them have less than 5,000 people—and they will fight like dogs and cats to keep their town as it is.

"The number of cops that are rogue are tiny, less than 1%"

Yeah, I'd say realistically like .01%
