IMPD proposes the hiring of 80 more police officers...

[88GT]

You missed the fact that IMPD lost one of their brothers last night, and now is not the time to be bashing their profession out of respect.

So when is a good time to bash LE on INGO?

Your post sounds troll like, I dare not respond.

For someone who is a self-proclaimed intellect, you really aren't very smart.

Go peddle your BS elsewhere, it's not wanted or appropriate in this thread.

Seriously, there is a great man who gave his life last night. He left behind a wife, and two children. Public safety is a very tight community and in that regard he left behind thousands of brothers here in Indianapolis. You have several people asking you very politely to save the conversation for a later date. I will ask again. If you want to have this conversation, bring it up after we bury him.

Line of duty deaths like these serve as a stark reminder of how dangerous our proffesions can be. LE more so than Fire. And when we loose someone in the line of duty it strikes a certain cord. ESP if we are on duty and away from our families when it happened. I personally have only spent two nights at home this week, and have 18 more hours before I can go home and hug my wife and son. Let the community grieve for a while, THEN we will have the discussion you want to have.

Not just in Indianapolis but all around the country Brothers and Sisters are mourning IMPD's loss this morning.

I didn't miss that fact and it's horrible but this thread was about the efficacy of hiring more police until someone interjected the news about the fallen officer i'm sure that nobody would be so heartless as to applaud this death if that was what the warning was about??

This thread had turned from hiring more officers to the NEED for ANY officers well before the LODD. The warning was posted about where THAT conversation would no doubt end up going.

Well, that's just silly...

Right, but that's where this thread was heading, and it was only a matter of time until somebody started in w/ the LEO bashing, and now is not the time. Here is to hoping we can have a few days of respect.

We are not doing this. I may reopen this in a couple days.
