Quote:Chris, I know what you mean. But when you're facing a hostile but weaponless drunk/ druggie what you REALLY need is a couple of very burly EMTs and a good detox/ psych program. Police and jails are often they way we "treat" schizos, druggies, drunks, the mentally retarded, PTSD sufferers (which IMHO make up most of the population of our more violent areas) etc etc.
Personally, I find the Police extremely useful for dragging away near-violent drugged-up nutcases from the place I work...
Of course, if you're dealing with someone with a weapon, bring in the SWAT team! And if you're serving an arrest warrant, you obviously need the police, not a doctor. So I'm not saying that police have no role whatsoever, but if your main job is rolling around in a police car looking with a suspicious eye at everything and everyone around you, it messes with your head.

He stayed sane that way.

Ooo, so I guess folk like me who make a habit of deliberately mind-f**king the police at every chance ain't helpin matters a whole lot, eh ?
I tend to see the police as social janitors more than anything else, you call em to collect the bodies and the mess, some of it, as evidence, and tag a report for later reference.
As of late we got some local kids casing houses under the guise of selling candy for a fundraiser, but their story tends to fall apart quick if you press it, especially when they offer also to sell you some knickknacks they've stolen from the house a couple doors down while the owner was in the garden.
And this is more than one group of them too, it seems to have become all the rage so look out for it - I myself have taken to making them FEAR this place and somehow they've gotten the idea that the residents are not quite right, oh gee, I wonder how they got that impression.

I didn't hear this through the rumor mill. I talked myself to the relative who was pulled over by the Customs agents. The camera in question is mine.
Just because you don't like the story doesn't mean you get to accuse someone of making it up. I didn't post a "made up story." I either made it up or it happened, whether they fit into your idea of what is possible or not.
