Contrary to your belief, you aren't the only one here capable of independent and critical thought.

I appreciate your compliment -- admitting that I'm capable of  independent and critical thought.

Keep studying.  Maybe you, too, can be one of us!   :geekdanc:

I would say in HI, if a budget cut to HPD is going to happen, divert the funds to the prisons.  What's the point of arresting more people if we cannot keep them locked up for doing their crimes?  How many times have we seen bad guys arrested with 12 prior convictions.  Or cases not taken to trial due to the prosecution was looking for a slam dunk.  I had that personally happen to me.  A known car thief broke into my car and was detained.  No charges filed because it wasn't a slam dunk.  I'll post details if anyone wants to know.

Don't know how you can teach cops, in the video below retired cops, discretion in arresting 6 year old children.
