...on the grounds that it "might offend the sensibilities of the protesters."  This is one of the reasons why the kill rate in Dallas was so high.  The sniper was wearing body armor but the police officers were not allowed to do so.

The police community should communicate to protest organizers in the future that they will gladly provide protective services to facilitate such activities in a safe and peaceful manner, but will be wearing the appropriate protective gear, and if the organizers don't like it they can provide their own security.

Police OfficersNov 28, 2014
My son is a police officer in one of the most crime infested places in the US.  I am very proud of him.  He was in the military before joining DC Metro.  I pray for his safety and pray he does not encounter someone who thinks they are above the law.  At the point in time that he is confronting a person who has broken the law, my son is the law.  He enforces the law.  Bottom line:  If a police officer tells you to do something, get out of the car, hands up, ...

Learning About The 5 Dallas Officers Lost, Any ONE Of WhomJul 09, 2016
I am THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED with the race-baiting hate-mongers on the left, who make hay (money, votes, influence) out of very isolated instances of police misconduct. We have 800,000 or so sworn officers in this country.  Figure conservatively that they have 4 significant citizen contacts per shift.  That's 3,200,000 citizen contacts, of which only a very few have adverse implications. America's police forces ARE NOT - and I repeat - ARE NOT RACIST.  In fact, police dep ...

Let's Clear Up The Minimum Wage NonsenseOct 27, 2014
By "clear up", I mean "to the extent possible".  I've spent two weeks "in the stacks", reviewing more than 2 dozen of the more recent economic analyses on the subject of the minimum wage, from sources that are considered reasonably objective.  For the most part, I focused on studies published by the NBER.  Of course, there's never any absolute assurance of objectivity, but peer review offers some reason to hope for it. They don't call economics "the dismal science" ...

It's Obvious To Me That People Who Buy Into Sanders' NonsenseJan 19, 2016
This could be a book, but we'll take just one of his pronouncements because it represents the core of his philosophy:  "Real freedom must include economic security." Really?  Is that the lesson you learned in World History and, more particularly, American History, assuming you didn't sleep through them?  I'm so glad that so many who built this country - indeed, so many who have contributed throughout history to the progress and betterment of mankind didn't eq ...

Working While Pregnant...smDec 30, 2009

Fibromyalgia And WorkingApr 20, 2013
Do any of you MTs or QAs have fibromyalgia or a form of arthritis which causes you to hurt almost daily and be depressed? How do you cope and work? I am so afraid I have developed fibromyalgia (which is something that tends to run in my family), and I am finding it very hard to sit and work 40 hours a week at a computer. I have neck, shoulder, back, arm, and hip pain and find it difficult to concentrate. What do you do you help you be able to work (I must work) and maintain a fairly active ...

Working On HolidaysJul 04, 2013
As long as I've been doing this, I should be used to it, but anyone else get upset about working on holidays?  I guess it's because it's summer and I'd much rather be outside floating in a pool, but just working today while knowing it's a holiday is getting to me. Anyone else?  How do you cope?  Not working is not an option, so I'm trying to make the best of it.   ...

I Do Not Feel Like Working TodayOct 07, 2013
I don't feel like working today.  But I will work anyway.  Because I have to pay for rent, food, health care, child care, and cell phones.  Then once I've taken care of all the people who just don't want to work, I will keep working because I have my own house payment, food, health insurance, and cell phone to pay for.  Because I think it's wrong to expect someone else to pay for all those things for me when I am able to work and provide for myself. ...

New Tax Law For People Working At HomeFeb 21, 2014
When itemizing I always took the bills including internet, water, gas and others, added those up and then you took a percentage. That has changed for this year.

The only problem I have now is how do I find the square footage of the office?? ...
