Well you sure sounded like it, and still sound like one.

Your statement above does not make sense to me, I don't know what you are asking. Do you know the meaning of hypocrit :

Here:
–noun
1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

—Synonyms
deceiver, dissembler, pretender, pharisee.

I think "pretender" best describes you You sound like one of those guys who wants us to do something about it, yet aren't willing to yourself.

I called you a hypocrit because your getting mad at us because we wouldn't care to report a petty crime, and here you are stating that your too big to report a guy burning DVD's. If your a corrections officer, shouldn't you be getting some info from me ? Your flaming us for free speech at the same time. If I was like you I would get upset as well, but I'm not.

Now tell me how I was hypocritical ? I still don't understand your question.

It seems not OK for me to say that you and Brandon are "unarmed in a battle of wits" right?

But you started it by calling me a "wanna be cop" to me and my profession that is a huge insult like what I do at work is insignificant. All my friends that have had shanks pulled on them or have been stabbed or have had to pull the trigger and take someones life as a prison guard is meaningless compared to a cop. I chose this profession and I do it daily without fear with all that goes on around me...and you in one string of words undermined all of that.

Ergo the hypocrisy

I'm ok with you calling me anything you want, the "unarmed in a battle of wits" still hasn't gotten me upset. You could tell me to frack off too if you want, I still won't get upset, that's your job to do

I'm sorry for calling you a wanna be cop, didn't know that was an insult either! Big wow you've been pulled a gun and shank on, I've been too. I grew up in Pakistan where we carried AK47's all the time, where gang banging was common. I feel no sympathy for your prison sh!t, I've probably been in worse situations than having a rusty shank pulled out on me, lol.

Good for you Steve, I still don't care about your job !
You and Ziggy are the ones who blew up in this thread, not me.
Can't handle someone elses opinion.

I never called you a wanna be cop, I said that you worked as part of law enforcement, as you enforce the law within the jail. I always thought correctional officers were part of the law enforcement.

Thank you Reza for understanding where I'm coming from.

Does anyone else find it really weird that Steves avatar is Hitler and he works in a correctional facility?

I really didn't think that being thought as a law enforcement officer was a bad thing. Whoops. Correctional Officers have a harder job than any cop to be honest with you, and I've got more respect for you guys than I do for cops looking to hassle some young adults in sports cars.

And as for Reza, you are completely right, I've got a few friends who grew up in Afghanistan and Pakistan. My friends from Afghanistan were like, none of these people from around here will ever know what it's like to have to pack up your family and head for the hills because of a bomb attacks are incoming. That's one of the reasons I have this "slack" attitude for people who get "threatened" with violence in something like a bank robbery, but nothing happens, and no one gets hurt. It's not about hurting them, or hurting a civilian, it's about taking money from a big company. People need to toughen up a bit. Nut up or shut up.

It's like if someone threatens to punch me in the face, but doesn't do anything. Do I call the cops and say that I was threatened with violence? Or do I nut up and move on. Lets face it, like Kobie's situation, the cops don't give a sh!t about small stuff.

Hitler working in a corrections facility ? lol
Kobie, I understand. It sucks that whenever we speak up about police brutality, we have these other guys who like to jump in and quickly discredit it. They make it sound like no matter what, it did not happen. Like they are the MOTHER of ALL POLICE, lol. I'm glad you posted your points. Any sane person with half a brain would understand our view, but it seems like they just want to force theirs upon us.

I think the thought that the police can be just as shady, if not more shady than the criminals they are supposed to protect civilians from scares people.. and I guess it should.

Off topic:

Does this apply to me or Brandon or both of us ? I was about to build 2 trannies soon, one for Lucian and one for Nathan Taback, and was planning on ordering parts from Jacks via you.

I'd rather know and make alternative arrangements if this thread has changed your mind to sell tranny parts that I will be assembling. If you don't want me in your store because of my opinion, please say so Ziggy

Also, the jail comment has still got me pondering

I want nothing to do with this thread. Quite honestly don't have the time or patience to read it all but I have to comment about the original website. The guy stealing empty beer kegs and bringing them back to the beer store for their deposit is pure hilarious. Seriously, who does that?!

Right ? lol

Unfortunately, we have a few guys here acting like this is AMERICA'S MOST WANTED !

ahahahahahahahaha lmfao

He's actually saving that person time and effort haha

This is a great debate. Just like people, cops are not all angels. There's good and bad ones. We shouldn't paint a bad picture for all of them. At the end of the day, they are employed to help us. Some guys on here are complaining about fat lazy cops who would rather hassle people with speeding tickets. Like you said, a crime is a crime. If they are going to bust you for that, they should bust you for scamming seniors, banks, and stealing credit cards. Two wrongs doesn't make a right, and I don't condone downloading music and what not. Besides, if you download, you may get viruses! I just stream on Youtube...which is quasi-legal already. If you know someone who does download confirmed illegal content and you want to report it...by all means report it if you want as no one is stopping you. In fact, you can call in many more violations and infractions. There's many committed daily. 2 Wrongs don't make it a right, and calling on one and not the other doesn't negate the fact that the crime that's being called on is still a crime.

Most police officers in todays age treat people with as much respect as they are treated. It goes both ways. If you are totally innocent and are not a legitimate suspect, they are more than likely not going to treat you like an arse. Not always, but most likely. I don't see them hassling my grandma for no reason! People talk back with cops during traffic stops or upon being interviewed. It goes both ways.

The point is, this thread is intended to help people who have been scammed, not the officers. If you want to report millionaires who have been scammed (ie: movie makers, actors, singers), by all means do it. If you want to report cops using excessive force, do it. No one is stopping you.

Take responsibilities for your own actions. Treat people with respect and more than likely you will be reciprocated.

Here's another example, if you get fired from Mr.Lube for not showing up to work and get fired for it, it's not the employer's fault. You can give him/her a good reason (ie: family issues) but he still fires you for job abandonment or not following policy. You contact the government for EI but they deny you benefits because you were fired with cause. You then write letters and go online bashing Mr.Lube, the government, etc. This all stemmed from the job abandonment (or policy violation), and the employer nor the government should not face the wrath behind your personal decisions that didn't fall in line with the policy. The law is the law. You do the crime, you do the time. This should apply for EVERYTHING. If you're a good person and follow the law, you shall be treated accordingly. If you have a problem with the law, contact your MP and MPP's and they make the law. If you don't care, don't vote, then don't complain about the law and how it's being administered.

PEACE. We all bleed red.

Good post, good points! As the original poster to this thread, I'm glad you can take the debate, or others opinions

I don't vote, never cared too, and don't care how the laws are made. I just try my best to follow them for my own well being

Crime is crime whether its white collar or blue collar.

I'm gonna go turn myself in for downloading mp3s, I don't think I can live with this guilt any longer I feel that if I don't do this, I will eventually be doing armed robbery, while being a paramedic.

Just out of curiosity.......

























































































Who's all coming to the invasion?

Reza and I will most likely be in jail

Would not surprise me. If horrible attitude or stupidity were a crime, you would be there already!

And if hypocrisy was one, same with the inability to carry on an intelligent discussion, you'd be there in shackles riding the bus with me

Alrighty, now we're on with the personal attacks.

LOCKED!
