“I just finished reading the article on Excessive Force on page 2B,” wrote in Ron the Former Police Officer, on March the 5th. “Another person was apparently injured in a police confrontation, followed by the usual lawsuit. As a former police detective, I have a solution on how to avoid 99 percent of all injuries, lawsuits, and deaths sustained as a result of a police confrontation,” offers Officer Ron:

“When stopped by an officer, do as he asks. Never run from the police, never fight with the police, never get into a shouting match, don’t try to escape from custody. Simply submit, but try to obtain all the info you can, i.e. why am I being stopped, etc. If you feel the officer is in error, there will be ample opportunity to contest the allegations later.”

That comprises the entirety of Officer Ron’s letter, and advice: “Just submit.”

I’ve got my copy of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in front of me, Officer Ron — you know, the one every “public servant” swears an oath to “protect and defend,” even at the cost of his or her own, precious “officer safety”? And I can’t find that part.

Very much on topic, but only for home consumption, THIS IS NOT WORK PLACE SAFE>>>>>>
