'Bout fricken time the left starts to question the police.
"...For example, there is the myth that policing is a
dangerous occupation. In fact, it is one of the safest jobs in the
country in terms of death and injury. It doesn't even make the Top
Ten of dangerous jobs, falling well behind construction work,
forestry, manufacturing, farming, mining, transportation and so
on.
Another myth which seems to be breaking down is that our police
forces are highly, expertly, trained in dealing with any and all
situations, especially those with a high expectation of violence.
Recent events have proven that wrong. In Toronto, more than 20 cops
had no idea how to deal with a teenager trapped in a street car,
brandishing a pen knife. He was shot and killed in a hail of police
bullets. In a Toronto suburb, cops tazered an 80-year-old woman in
obvious mental distress. There are other such incidents, including
the notorious killing of Robert Dziekanski in the Vancouver airport
by four Mounties in October, 2007...."
