It's not so much the marksmanship of them I am worried about, I am sure

most are at least as good as some kid who spent his life learning to

the firearms I am looking for. Conflict resolution, domestic violence

experience, ability to stop a violent situation without violence....

Perhaps I should give them more credit for those abilities. I hear

about the tragic exceptions but have no idea how many potentially tragic

incidences are avoided and unreported. The incidents that I have been

personally familiar with have not left a good impression with one

exception.

I have lived in the inner city... You see what these guys are capable of

tolerating situations and how "professional" they can remain after..

Just a short while ago you were in here badmouthing police...complaining About corruption and being robbed of hour drug money plus being shoved down a staircase.

Now you are positively drooling over retired cops.

You are a fickle little fillie

Can there not be good cops and bad cops?

Is it dark up there?

I suppose so..here certainly are "good" and "bad" former military men.
Seems that every time there's a shooting and the perp is over 30.. it's a former military man.
What do you say about that, Johnny?

I give that as much credence as the last 'belief' you shared.

What do you mean, "I suppose so..."? You *suppose* it's dark up there? Have you got a light in your
throat? If not, then it must be dark where you seem to keep your head.
