Apog, that sounds like a great solution except that sooooooo many people the cops come in contact with have guns already. The NRA has seen to it that the laws intended to support state and local militias back in colonial days have been twisted to support massive gun ownership in the US. Because, of course, the right to bear arms means that any local yokel should be allowed to have a semi-automatic weapon in his possession at all times.

A day in the life of a Cop...my story. The truth.
by Witness 007 ini work for a mental health unit with 2 police officers we deal with people who have drug and mental health issues.
at times over the last 10 years we have "taken down" some large drug affected men, mainly "ice" these days which is epidemic here, and let me tell you even with three of us it is a huge struggle.
sometimes back up is needed or mace spray which is aweful stuff!

2 Faced JWs and Thanksgiving
by minimus inmany jws enjoy turkey on thanksgiving day and are often discreet about their indulgences.
why be two faced?
why try to excuse it?.

My favorite jdubs were the ones who talked trash about other dubs eating a thanksgiving meal on Thursday (thus celebrating the "holiday"). The trash talkers then hypcritically did the same thing on Friday. Friday was not really celebrating, even if you had your family over to eat turkey, stuffing, cranberries, sweet and mashed potatoes, gravy, pumpkin pies, and all your other favorite holiday foods. THAT makes sense, right?

Lack of love for people but increased love for titles and power, hypocritical and pompous elders, shunning children, change from using Jesus as the example to excessive obedience and reverence for the elder body and watchtower...all topped off by child abuse cover ups. It all became too much to accept blindly.

within the space of a couple of hours, my wife talked about politics, race relations, and gave the kids a passionate lecture about how life sucks without a college degree which is why they should study.

My daughter has a home personality (real) and a dub personality (sad). Don't think she's even aware.

Once all the KHs are sold off, will it be a stretch of the imagination that the WTS will shift its real estate interests to building old-age facilities for the millions still waiting, waiting, waiting for armageddon? Just another way to profit off their despicable lies.

JW Friend was Married this Weekend. Tutto รจ bene che riesce bene.
by objectivetruth ina close jw friend of mine, got married this weekend.ever since he and i meet (13 years ago) when we were both 18 we've been close and we've experienced different life experiences together.. our qualities, have complemented each other well over the years..he the voice of responsibility and reservedness, & i the voice of spontaneity and passion.i taught him about life and he taught me about perseverance through trial.. i care about justice, he cares about reputation.he is a better person then i will ever be, but so stricken by society.. i always stuck my neck out for him, but our friendship was the thorn in his reputations side.he was on the path to mts, and i was on the path of frivolity.despite all this.. when the 2 of us were together, free from the scrutiny of the outside world he was himself, and he was a great friend.
though naive about much, he always tried to do what he could to be a friend.. i was there when he and his now wife first started dating.. i envisioned him marrying her, and my wife & i spending many enjoyable times with them as a couple.. shortly after they meet my wife & i learned ttatt.. i explained my findings to him as i did with all my friends and family.
he being a person, whom i perceived to have great deal of biblical knowledge, i expected valiant effort coming from him to "help me" see where i had erred.all i got was a email with 3 irrelevant watchtower articles & some even more irrelevant scriptures.. i would have surely been his best man, but instead another mutual jw friend was asked.i am not da'd or df'd but this is the pseudo non-invitation that he sent :.

So sad.
For your sake, I wish he valued True Friendship more than his Reputation.
He's the one missing out.
