I don't condone or endorse the violence, however cops do this all the time. Hard to say what sparked this, possibilly a lifetime of abuse from the police and he just couldn't take it anymore and snapped. Maybe he built up a life worked hard only to have everything taken away, maybe they killed someone he cared about, It must have been something pretty big for one to take on a losing battle such as this. Police have endless backup and all the money and resorces that they basically stole from those like me and possibally you.

Police: The Domestic Monopoly on Violence- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8DTPdeFkbw

Many people join the police because they are enamored by images of protecting the innocent, punishing the guilty, maintaining order, promoting peace, serving and protecting the people etc. It is also fun to believe in the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, and the Easter Bunny but it is not encouraged to base our future professions on such myths and eventually we must shed them. To believe, in our adult life, that the primary function of police is to perform the aforementioned is to be plagued with a severe form of schizophrenia and a selective understanding of reality. In economics we understand that people act according to incentives and that by thoroughly understanding those incentives the result of those actions can be more or less predictable. If I give a man money to not work, is he likely to continue seeking employment or to abandon such efforts? If pharmaceutical representatives shower a physician with luxurious gifts the more he prescribes a certain medication is likely to prescribe more or less of that medication? If fascistic special interests banks are given cheap currency in the form of Quantitative Easing and then told by the Federal Reserve that they will be given a greater interest rate if they park it in their reserves, are the banks likely to lend that currency out or park it in their reserves? If fascistic special interests banks are told that they can gamble with the people’s currency in the massive derivatives casino, lose trillions, and those funds will still be secured throughout colossal criminal bailouts at taxpayer’s expense are they likely to gamble recklessly in the derivatives casino or be more cautious with the people’s hard earned currency? I hope the trend is clear.

The people do not voluntarily fund the police; rather they are coercively funded through the theft of taxation. Their salaries will always be guaranteed regardless of abuse or cruelty towards the people. Therefore the incentive is not about pleasing the customer in any respect but about pleasing their superiors and political masters. When this is understood then the rise of the police state, the militarization of the police, and the flooding of police brutality videos is not surprising. It is but a natural result of incentivized human action. “Government” is the giant exception to the law of morality and the enormous incentive to waste, inefficiency, and barbarity to which we all must contend. Eliminate the paradigm of systematic predation and all the wretched hydra heads will inevitably die. Stop funding wickedness with your participation and support! What is done violently through aggression is always inferior to that which is done peacefully through voluntary interaction. Good ideas do not require force.

Do you consider Yank, Spam and Limey so be jokes or knocks ?

(I have been called a Limey in the US, by an American as in "you're a Limey").

Yes we do have cake mixes had then for a long time.

I just like to know what is in my cakes so bake from scratch as I do all my food.

I just feel it is a healthier way.

I use good quality flour and free range eggs.

If I make apple Pie I pick the nicest Apples and stew them my self, just like my Mum did.

Even make my own Gravy unless I am making a stew, then I may use a bit of gravy mix

I think being called a "Yank" is funny. I think most of what is said on this board to and about Americans is funny. Because most of it is so off the mark....lol.

Because I'm American I don't know if being called a "Limey" is an insult or not. I would imagine it probably is. But it also could be said as a goodnatured joke--as I believe "Yank" is on CS.

I don't think I would take kindly to being called Spam though. That stuff tastes horrible!

A different sense of humor to ours.

Not used to having the pee taken out of them so they don't get those one's.

A more PC society.

That's from my HO dealing with them and visiting the US.

You're right. Lion doesn't miss an opportunty. All the while with her nose up high.

I don't agree at all. Maybe you've missed all those posts from some claiming our problem is we think we're better than everyone. Meanwhile those same people are displaying the same attitude.

I know my sense of humor is just fine, until someone wants to take a cheap shot. I know the difference.

I've never in my entire life heard anyone use the term limey. Except on TV by someone not American. It would be considered weird.

lion, I'm an easy going kinda person, but do take offense when called lazy.  I'm far from lazy and, I'm sorry, but do take offense at being labeled in that way and see no humor or 'bit of a joke' in it.

Why do some feel the need to put someone else down, or hurt their feelings? 

I try very hard to be cordial and get along with others who post here. Everyone is different and that's what makes the world go round.  We can actually learn from other's cuisine and  I don't feel the need to make fun of anyone here...

[imastawka]

OK  I believe I'm the one that first used the term 'lazy' referring

to canned pumpkin.   In Australia, we have such a great climate

and great farmers, we can get anything and everything fresh,

all year round.

I was unaware that pumpkin is not grown (except for halloween)

in the US.   I buy a chunk of fresh pumpkin every week when i

buy my fruit and veg.   It's such an easy thing to cook.

But then, not every cuisine loves pumpkin.  English and a lot of

European countries only use it for pig food.

So I apologise for the 'lazy' bit.

Can we all get over it now, please?

[gleee58]

Boxed caked mix?  Sure do.

Our growing season here is June, July, and August...and that's it. Maybe some stuff is planted in May, I don't know, I have a job, lol. California probably has the longest growing season.

I wanted to grow tomatos in the spring, but don't have time to do much more. My favourite is plain hunts tomato sauce, nothing added except salt and garlic powder. Canned! 🙂

At least it doesn't come in a plastic container.

Jimmy I really dont know what you have against me at all, if you wish to ignore That would be great.

I have never been any thing but kind to you both here and else where.

As I said before many here have met me in person and I am sure they will tell you I am not a snob at all, have a great day

No you haven't. How many times you've posted in the same thread I'm posting in and said, "I'd hate to live there". More than a few. How about I walk into your house and say, "what a dump!". You weren't kidding, you were intentionally being hurtful.

How about you worry about your own country and ignore the US.

And I'll reply to what I choOse to.
