How many LEOs are in the US?

roughly 900,000

edit: and that is just sworn officers, that doesn't account for staff and other personnel (CSI, morticians etc)

Media & Mayhem / So i quit tobacco

« on: February 26, 2016, 12:01:15 pm »

And join the world of vaping.

Ive been smoking and chewing on and off since I was 11. I've rolled my own tobacco leaves and still have about 4-5k worth of fine cigars. For the last 3 years ive been strictly chewing so this has been an interesting ordeal to say the least. I've lowered my nicotine intake considerably but I remember the first time i quit (cold turkey mind you) The withdraws suuuuucked. I am hoping this time around I can kick it for good.

this all came about after last summer and the whole stomach cancer ordeal. Not something I'd wish to repeat. I remember lying in the hospital bed with a nicotine patch on and having my dip that I snuck in laying beside me. I wouldn't wish any form of addiction onto anyone, and if anyone else is trying to improve themselves you have my support.

Errr, I hate when people call them that, haha. I can understand the reasoning, but in my opinion its like equating Donald trump to Hitler because of some certain similarities.

I mean yeah they're bad, and they've got their issues, but life is better just cause they exist. I mean, I know better than to get police involved with my business, but they still have a certain degree of culpability, especially with cell phones and social media nowadays.

Gangs are just evil. MotherFarkers go out and kill people just for living a few streets in the wrong direction or wearing the wrong color. I think 4 or 5 toddlers got killed on the east side last year cause of gang violence, not to mention all the people who got robbed, raped, or killed. Those dudes sling drugs and shoot guns for a living, they're not exactly a necessary evil.

4 or 5 toddlers (actually its more) have been killed this year alone due to police having the wrong house for a home invasion.

...so you were saying? And not to mention they have 0 accountability. I shoot someone because IO don't like what they said to me I go to prison for life, An LEO shoots someone for not letting them search their car they get paid vacation.

Fark that.

Hopefully the tidbits I (and the various others here) help with that decision, either way I expect pics! I want to go so bad.

Lol, yup, pretty spot on. A full grown man weighing 300+ bragging about beating up a middle schooler less than a third his size, all because he didn't want him going in his pockets.

Seeing the battle unfolding in front of him, Sam uses his surprise strike ability and in one motion ignites his sword, and rushes the lone ? At the back of the warehouse (the one behind the box alone) using rapid strike to give him the best chance of inflicting damage.

Intent:

Surprise strike
Rapid strike
-1 luck point of needed for extra success or crit to light the target ablaze

Edit: (with Montoya's surge point) Sam will attack again

"Um. . . There's something they're not telling us. . .
And their auras are . . . wrong? Messed up? Like what I did so the people wouldn't see us."

"So pretty much, they're telling the truth. just not all of it?"
Hmm

"You know, I don't have much experience dealing with Feng Shui and all that, what do you think our best option is?" He asks Cillian in particular. And then addresses the others around him.

"Looks like they're taking positions, they want us in the building."

"Captain!" He shouts across to montoya. "May I have a heard please, you know. Over here?" He motions for the captain to guickly join them.

Seems like spouting off to a cop about how you don't need a license to drive would just get you tazed, anyway.

it's funny, the kids asked me if i wanted to play Cops and robbers awhile back. I looked at them and asked "What's the difference?"

seems like dealing with an LEO in general would you get you tazed, or shot, or your dog shot, or your innocent child shot. I carry a gun because law enforcement doesn't travel at 1400 FPS, and even if they did you have a better chance of dying by calling them than dealing with your problem by yourself.

I tell my children never to speak to LEO for any reason, they need to call me first. They're not your friend, they're not your hero. They are extortionist hired for the sole purpose of generating revenue for the state by any means necessary.

lol dude im not mad at you. I want people to research things its my goal in life

Crandall Vs. Nevada came about by taxing passengers, which brought about the freedom of movement for passenger vehicles (IE: No tax = modern terms Fee for registering a motor vehicle and obtaining license for operating)

Now yeah States can pass a law, but it doesn't mean that law is legal and has to be upheld.

Personal opinion: Law is evil by definition.

My references are newer. XD

But, if you have friends who have been detained / ticketed for operating a vehicle without a license, and they successfully had the charges dismissed, I suppose you must be right.

Only one of them has ever been detained for operating without a license, and that was in Rhode Island where cops are just primal savages to begin with. He was released within an hour.

Every citizen has the right to personal transportation and to move freely within the country. Privileges and immunities clause.

Ref: Crandall Vs. Nevada (1860); The United States Vs. Wheeler (1920); United States v. Guest, 383 U.S. 745 (1966).

And several more supreme court rulings.

Again the catch is: once you register as an operator you lose the privilege of freedom of movement.

Normally I'd say something like "stupid Americans" right around here but honestly, I way prefer that approached. 100% of the driver's Ed and schooling and time we go through is pure bullshit, as is the amount of money you need to pay for your license.

Amen. Dude.

Media & Mayhem / Re: I got my License!!!

« on: February 24, 2016, 03:29:45 pm »

Technically speaking. In the United States you do not have to have a license to drive a passenger vehicle. Its a right not a law, and it's protected by the constitution.

But the catch is, since you know this isn't advertised because the state would lose money, it's null and void if you've ever had a license. Once registered as a driver in any state you have to ha e a license till you die or are deemed not eligible to drive by the state.

Crystal calls out into the room, "Hello? How are any of you still alive? Do you need help?"

She tries to put her hand onto Cillian's shoulder and gently edge him in back through the doorway, hoping he'll understand how delicate the situation is.

Sam has his right hand on his sword and gently puts his left hand on Cillian's other shoulder to help Crystal ease him back.

"Lets let the Captain introduce himself, we can be the good crew members giving him a moment of glory. Just., just stay with us Cillian's, don't do anything crazy here okay?"

Damn I'd kill for a smoke...

Heh. Glad to hear it. I'm doing well. I had a mental health crisis, but I'm doing vastly better now that I have the correct diagnosis. I'm keeping busy & staying out of trouble.

As for me-as-Morgan-R... well, I was briefly spooked by Gamergate, and then I kinda did the math and realized that Gamergate can't touch me. I live in a small town. The cops aren't gonna SWAT, they're gonna come knock on the door. And if anyone was dumb enough to harass my folks... well, they'd be pretty damn sorry, pretty damn fast. So I'm probably going to put my current legal name on my (future- hypothetical) CoG games, because why the Fark not. It's an Ellis Island name, but it's mine and I like it.

...sorry, babbling a little. Just back from a convention, so I'm amped up & trying to wind down. Hope you'll stick around for a while. ^_^

I plan on it. I've got a D20 Resident Evil campaign that's just about ready to start here in BhB. And I've been writing a bunch.

Glad to hear you're doing better! And I'm what gamergate is. But you can always PM me anytime you wanna talk.

"guess it's time to make a move player." Sam decides to try the front doors of the office. Cautiously avoiding bumping into any of the zombies on his way

He'll make sure Cillian is okay inside then he will explore around for a minute, maybe he can find some keys in the building for the big trucks out there...

Montoya helps his sword drawn just in case "Ok, Space magic us all and we head out to steal that pick-up truck!" Montoya peeks out "Let's lead them all away from the hanger doors first though.

"I don't know Cap, I think we should clear that administration building, there are bound to be key cards, or weapons, or something beneficial in there. And shouldn't the guard post be there too? Weapons and armor and stuff could come in handy if we get deep in the mess later on. I mean ultimately I guess it's your decision but that seems a wise choice to me. Maybe one a couple of us could clear the building while a couple work on the truck?"

So the plot thickens even more on my trip.

I asked the cousin I mentioned before if he's interested in going to Japan with me. He's basically in, he just needs to get his finances in check and make sure his school is cool with him missing some time. He'll miss 5 days by going, he's already missed 4, and they can kick you out if you miss 5. He'll check with them tomorrow and come Friday is gonna come over to discuss the trip more. If he decides yes then it's back to the original plan of Japan.

If he can't I'll probably hold off on Japan for another year (or maybe just till the fall) and go to the Philippines instead.

Either way, exciting times.

I've visited my share countries, Japan hasn't been one, needless to say I'm jealous you get to do this. Whenever you get to go I really hope you enjoy it man.

"Well I sits mean it like that, sounded better in my head. Of course I wouldn't want to put Cillian's life on the line like that. I meant it more as maybe he could be the pied piper from the old kids stories. As long as it wasn't dangerous, he seems to be connecting with them on levels we can't understand is all.. "
