Well I think you're a dick for making a comment like that.
Where's the thread explaining how you got involved in all that?!
I doubt it. But yeah, making polls about snitches is a stupid idea on a pot board.
No sir, full on Canuck
lol. That happened just by making poor decisions and letting my ego and all that negative shit take over my thought processes. I used to make alot of money, and that didn't help to sway me from that life. lol
Yes, same one. They closed the thread. I posted on 3 sites that I frequent in an attempt to help as many people as I can. The poll was simply bringing out into the open the thoughts that everyone had when they first started reading. I mean, I know I would have thought of a couple of those questions. More experience could've brought me more knowledge of LEO, but at what price? I quit for a reason. My morals and ethics. MOST of the feedback has been positive. I actually thought I would be flamed off the site for it, but I had to at least say I TRIED to help.
But it's all a lesson learned. I wish I hadn't dedicated the first half of my life to becoming a cop, but I wouldn't be who I am today without it. Congrats on getting squared away!
what are the body langue signs that offers look for when they pull some one over what are the signs that a person is trying to hide somthing? i had girl freind that her father was a retired cop. learned some good infomation from him about traffic stops.
You weren't flamed at the other site for being a cop.
There are a ton of clues. Any one by itself isn't too significant, but a couple together make you curious. Things such as avoiding eye contact, stammering, fidgeting, avoiding a particular area of the vehicle, etc. The profile began the moment I saw you. The averted eyes when you noticed I was there, talking to a passenger but never looking at them, putting your hands ANYWHERE other than the steering wheel or your lap, extra time spent stopped at the intersection, etc
I've seen him say he was out of the loop on one question and he checked Wiki for another, so far no answers but I'm keeping an open mind. I doubt we can learn much from him except small time shit that would happen in a small town, we got cops tv for that.
Well Japan, I respect your opinion. You're right, I don't have all the answers. I haven't been a cop since '96. Two years isn't a complete rookie, but isn't a veteran either. I just figured if I can help one person out, I would. I think I said something to that effect in my OP too, but maybe didn't make it clear enough. The Wiki link was to a shootout that has been documented and used for training other officers that fit into the context of the convo. I do have current friends in law enforcement so I tend to defer to them when I run across a question I can't answer. It's fine if you don't want to participate, just unsubscribe to the thread if you'd like. Or you're more than welcome to add your 2 cents in where you see fit. It's really up to you.
Thanks for the support johnny. We've spoken in a few threads together and while he tends to come off a little gruff or as a trouble-maker but has given me a few things to think about.
I've run across a few people that did this and they were very open about it. They always said something like "Well, while you've been messing with me for the last hour, how many people got robbed?" Gets to be a game of cat & mouse.
who said anything about minors?
