@DaChaGee You think armies fight in parade formation and parade uniform?

@DaChaGee Right, but they tend to have idealized equipment for the situation. This is equipment that hasn't changed in almost 400 years. Wool pants and jacket for summer.

@DaChaGee Why did you think your initial question made any sense at all then?

@Scythra Not every cop needs to be a guy that can chase down an 18 year old gangster in his prime, every cop always calls back up in that type of situation even the most capable. A cop who can resolve conflict without needing to call any backup at all is even more valuable, that means knowing everyone in the community you patrol.

@cicero5001 They call that Poe's Law, when satire is indistinguishable from reality. It's never been exhibited better than on the internet today.

Sadly, from recent studies it looks like Gen Z is cripplingly computer deficient now because they only know how to use smart devices. I'm a millennial (one of the oldest, admittedly) software developer, and I simply can't stand mobile software much of the time. To sum it up, it's like desktop software, but worse. There's too many sacrifices made for the sake of being able to put it on a touch screen most of the time. And on top of that they usually have less time/budget to put out a mobile app, depending on the company (if the mobile app is not their main product) so it is naturally worse.

@missymonroe3886 It could get your family member killed, though, if some idiot witness calls 911 and it turns out nothing was happening, but the dispatcher says "someone is being violent" or "someone is armed." If that someone is someone you care about, then they'd better do exactly the right thing -- which varies even by cops in the same department -- or he might get shot Point is, we as citizens need to do more to be responsible and not call the police simply because you were slightly annoyed or scared. The police aren't really anyone's friend when responding to a 911 call. You are effectively saying, "Yes, Mr. Government, send armed men to this location immediately." If you don't wish to risk the "perpetrator" getting shot, then don't call the police

@kh2b573 Not really a valid comparison. You don't endanger the health of young men by continuing to use the same flag. Meanwhile you sit in your comfortably air conditioned room posting on the internet while demanding that they continue to wear wool uniforms in summer. That's incredibly stupid even for standards of the period where those uniforms were designed, most armies had a summer uniform and a winter uniform. I'm sure the guards thank you for your patriotism...

@missymonroe3886 Well, I'm a software engineer and most of my job involves thinking about edge cases, things that are unlikely to happen. With guns, it only takes one incident for it to matter. One shot, one mistake, etc. Doesn't matter if it's 1 in 10 or 1 in a million, today might be your unlucky day, and then you'll regret it.

@sujitwarrier4857 Windows 8 is a product of Microsoft's continued failed attempts to break into the mobile market. They wasted a lot of time and effort writing the "Metro" interface which is the tile menu, designed for a phone or tablet. It's clunky, slow, and the search function doesn't work very well. Microsoft seems to suffer greatly from an acute aversion to refactoring very old Windows code. They don't want to interface or use older stuff written into the OS, so they often just build new stuff instead, and that stuff ends up having its own issues. That's why it feels so bloated.

@missymonroe3886 Yeah, I know. It's a nearly unsolvable problem and a tragedy. I think what cops need to do, is be able to evaluate the situation for themselves when they arrive on the scene instead of trusting exactly what the dispatcher said.

I watch videos like this too and I don't get why the cops didn't simply ask him questions on the sidewalk instead of instantly detaining him in the squad car. He made no movements to run. Assuming no CYA was involved and they did indeed get a tip from a random witness, you can't assume a passing witness is completely accurate. Another problem is that when it comes from a dispatcher the cops will assume it's credible information.

@awesomedudeunboxing2923 Dude, Uvalde goes way beyond "a mistake." It was endemic department corruption stemming from the very top. Something that plagues departments all over the nation. The chief told his whole department to stand down and not let any parents in for about an hour. It was not until the feds, who overrode their authority, arrived that action was taken. Luckily, the bigger the department is the harder it is for it to be corrupt to this degree because there is more accountability, but this is a problem with many, many small towns all over the US.

This is all legal and even Constitutional for the executive branch to do. Previous administrations, including Republican, had a lot to gain from inaction. Almost all of those bureaucratic organizations are created by the executive branch. All things foreign and immigration related are solely the purview of the executive branch unless Congress passes a law about it. Republicans before Trump only really paid lip service to immigration policy. People still think his EO regarding natural born citizenship is anti-Constitution. It's not, it's addressing a law passed in the 60s that YT will literally remove my comment for mentioning.

@kh2b573 Lol fair enough
