Such a flattering photo Darren. :D

It was my Mick Jagger impersonation :wink:
Lig I asked for photos from your hippy stage not your cross-dressing stage.
Hope it was just a stage?
So do I, because man, you make an ugly chick!Quote:

There is good and bad everywahere. I want to trust and for the most part I do, I guess the media has the most control over what we hear about them, and like everything we are fed, sensationalism and shock win the day more than the day in day out of these people doing their jobs and protecting the general public.
Saw this shirt and think it is quite poiniant for 99% of the time. At the end of the day who do you turn to???
I used to be a great fan of The Police.
Then Sting went solo.

Not into the love/hate fest thing when it comes to cops, teachers, real estate sellers, lawyers, doctors etc.
There is [as has been said] good, mediocre, bad in all professions or services.
I treat all [police] as I find them - most deserve my respect for what they do and how they do it, however, that being said, those who do the wrong thing [for this read criminally wrong] deserve everyone's condemnation.
Please,
once again [the old story] - prosecute/punish those that do the wrong thing - do not punish all. This idea [not unique] is applicable to all situations not just the current one.
The government/schools/businesses are all guilty of this where all are made to suffer for the few.
Bear in mind that the people on the ground can only do what the "high ups" allow/require them to do. I also was in Brisbane in the 60/70's - many of those I came into contact with did not agree with the government's "requirements" re street marches/Springboks tours etc.
Re the shooting aspects - the shooting to wound will get you or someone else killed - this idea, unfortunately, is usually put forth by those who have not shot firearms before and/or believe that what they see from Hollywood is reality instead of supposed entertainment.
One last point, many feel that someone armed with a knife is a low level threat - wrong - an offender with a knife will have it in the Officer's chest if the offender is closer than 7-10 feet - before most Officers can draw and fire. Hopefully a sobering thought before people/media start their usual bleating.
I believe the SWAT group in the US have this as their logo

Translated as, "only 1 ass to risk"
BTW - No, I'm not a cop nor ever have been - it's a job that I don't think I could do - I'm just pleased that there are some who can.

Better to model myself on him than on Susan Dey :DQuote:

Danny from the Partridge Family.:laughing1: I bet that was character building.:D
Oddly enough, I never copped that at all. But then the Partridge Family was pretty much a shot duck by the time I was 16 and when it was on TV, no-one had colour TV.
So yeah, in as much as I had red hair, I looked just like him. Surprised I didn't get mobbed everywhere I went :p
