I don't work with these guys, but I do have friends and teammates who are involved in the various levels of policing. Even they admit that it's a hard job to keep up with the streets. A new kid could make his mark with a brazen shooting, and no one would see it coming. For the most part, the police are there to clean up the mess and that has to be frustrating. Even if they do everything in their power to get these guys, the courts may not feel that long term incarceration is necessary.

It's a tough job to be a cop out there. Some of the stories they tell make my most exciting day at work look like a day of napping in comparison.

I think you're giving them to much credit, they aren't that smart.

Lets be real. Cops are all over the place, we see them day to day. But we see the majority of them doing useless crap, thus why we as car enthusiasts always have the running line of "Why are there so many cops doing radar instead of trying to hunt down killers?"

Seeing "Another Shooting in Surrey" and then driving by 5 cops all at a single radar trap kind of pisses off the public. Until results are made by RCMP, nobody is going to give them a break.

5 cops at a radar trap are traffic cops. They are supposed to piss you off if you can't drive. That's their job. FailFish

Gang task force deals with gang shit. Sex crimes units investigate sex crimes. It's not that hard to figure out. Even a dumbass like me gets it. :nerd:

yes, attorneys try to abide by such a duty as well, my issue is more along the lines of solving crimes, and refraining from telling the public 'nothing to worry about here' or 'they're known to police' as that 'known to police' line is misleading and has been used disingenuously.

bystanders/innocents have been hit more often than people assume but the work put into solving the crimes is only marginally improved and even then it's far from enough, all you hear is "oh it's too hard", "oh when we try to solve things the suspects are killed or run off by the time we get close" that's the job! the difficulty is a given! and for the odd time when they do get results, they handled the investigation improperly and that's where those cases fail in the courtroom (due to their mistakes) so many cases don't make it far due to improper investigation, no wonder they find it so hard to solve cases, it's because of their piss poor work

Another shooting this time in poco

Shooting in Port Coquitlam - News1130

i think what hes saying is take some of those cops off of radar and have the gang task force grow while its such an issue.

kinda like when a huge line opens up at a grocery store.. they get a guy to put down a broom and get behind a second till.

its called priorities and all companies do it. right now there is a shortage that needs to be met and prioritized.

i understand im comparing apples to oranges but the same basic principle stands

Surrey/Delta

Shots fired south of the Fraser - News1130

What is that, 1 minute drive from the Police Station in Guildford? Fucks could be given.

yesterday, 4 ppl were shot...



oh looks like there was an article, which said only 2 people were shot
http://www.news1130.com/2015/06/26/a...ing-in-surrey/


Also a guy was beaten in surrey, last night, in a backyard, in hospital with life threatening injuries

So much of this is fueled by how much cocaine is used in the downtown lifestyle.


20-25 year old girls suck and fuck dudes in their 40s who pay for everything at da club and keep the blow flowing alllllllll night long.


People doubt me that this happens, but in urban social circles cocaine and young sluts are as ubiquitous as Macbooks in cafes.

Oh, if I had a dollar for every young, entitled, non-smoking vegan I've met who claims their mind, body and soul is a beacon of health. Then someone pulls out a little flappy flap and hello!!

:wooha:

i dont think anyone doubts that? that's like the MO of bar sluts no?

stabbing in metrotown not too long ago, looks like it was by the VS Pink store (not the VS store)

So many professional women(and men) use cocaine. I was banging the hell out of a local actress and her and all of her friends are massive cokeheads.


Funny thing is, if you met any of these people they would categorically deny using it and say how terrible it is.

Oh, and of course she was into juicing, yoga and a ton of other "healthy" things while ramming blow up her nose from random dealers. I had to distance myself from her because I wrote my book to get away from that lifestyle and when you socialize downtown it tries to drag you back in.

Killer sale??? :whistle:

i guess i should have rephrased and not used bar sluts but rather 'partyers'

but yes coke seems to be a very popular party drug almost or as much? as it was in the 80s and it's not just coke -_- it's a bit unnerving really

it was in front of the build-a-bear, victim is in critical condition


Stabbing at Metrotown Shopping Centre | CTV Vancouver News

fucking Canada Line

:seriously:

OMFG!!!

Looks like there was a shooting yesterday, didn't hear about it, and a stabbing

More violence in Surrey overnight | Vancouver Sun

Man these guys are dolts, half of Surrey's intersections have high def cameras now they literally can't drive anywhere there without giving up their plate on CCTV. Within 5 years it's going to be 100% of intersections... It's meant for traffic analysis / re-routing but useful for these and accident circumstances as well.

not cooperating? :considered:

dont treat them at the hospital! :fullofwin:

i guess that'd be too cruel by today's standards though :alonehappy:

Getting shot isn't a crime.

today was a big day. i almost got knifed and stab and shot
