  1. You're going to hate me for saying this, but I really can't agree. You had an out of control dog, you have a trained police officer. I wouldn't scrap the officer's life, or their utility to the city for the sake of one damn dog. Enforcing standards of conduct is partly about having a sense of proportion. It was probably more dangerous to fire 5 shots in such close proximity to other people with little regard to surroundings The officers were also not trained to deal with dogs but that has since been partially rectified as now all officers have to undergo training I would not ask to have his life or career ruined but there wasn't even a reprimand for shooting a dog trying to flee and that's what gets me. If he panicked and shot a twice tasered and collared dog I don't have much faith in how he would acquit himself in an actual life or death situation
  2. The dog was tasered, collared, and trying to get away when the cop shot it 5 times The argument was that he didn't need to shoot it the dog when he could have assisted the female animal control officer who was struggling to control it. The dog was moving away from the woman when he shot it the first time and continued to shoot it 4 more times. Most people weren't asking that he go to jail but it was expected that at least he would get an official reprimand and at most lose his job. No compassion because of the breed is kind of a dim view He's the full video where you can see the dog is not moving towards the animal control officer when first shot but is simply trying to flee. You can just skip to the last 15 seconds http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=XMKqwQm4L9Y
  3. a bit of an uproar over here because a cop that chased and shot a dog was found not guilty
  4. Any new changes to Myplayer mode? Or is it the same? Some slight menu changes and GMs look a lot better Nothing major that I've noticed so far other than graphical improvements and it seems a little easier. 3 games in and I've been moved up to 6th man
  5. I might have to back that
  6. I finally watched the first 2 episodes of Agents of SHIELD and I really don't see it lasting even if they can pull out a cameo every week
  7. Will any watch do? I think I still have a calculator watch from Walgreens in a box somewhere or how about this snazzy Mass Effect watch?

  10. Is he a good enough shooter to play the 2? Nope, not really. He's got a decent 3 but that's it and he's short so it'll be an interesting transition

  14. I'm 3 sheets to the wind and out of all of my favorite alcohol so I'm working my way through a bottle of Southern Comfort Cherry I kinda like it with oj EDIT: it's funny, the only yjomh I'm never out of is tequila. I always stop before I get to the point I would consider drinking that crap EDIT2: yjomh = thing
  15. Ideology aside the usual argument against copy and pasting the health care system from some other country is that none of the countries have anything close to the numbers that we are dealing with. We have cities with more people than some of these countries. Personally, I would love if we could get some kind of UHC here but I don't think its ever going to happen in my life time unless the US breaks up into smaller countries
  16. Yep, I rocked my t-shirt all around town on Monday The dogtags are cool looking but the actual USB is kinda crap
