6:14 small detail. Everyone except Tackleberry ducks. Tackleberry doesn’t flinch because he’s a gun nut and knows the shotgun already went off and wasn’t reloaded, making it impossible, if not unlikely for another shot to go off.

@@RanRayu’I don’t live in the USA.’ Exactly. You have never personally interacted with any member of American law enforcement or had any firsthand experience whatsoever.

You don’t know a goddamn thing about the countless men and women who do even more countless good deeds for people all across the country every single day, but barely get any recognition for it because very few media outlets or internet users talk about anything but doom and gloom. It it bleeds, it reads, and everybody knows it. Don’t speak on things you know absolutely zilch about, you pompous, puffed-up wretch.

This movie was greatly appreciated back in the day in my country(Bulgaria). I was born in the late 80s, but I first saw it in 1993. It was the first movie on my dad's TV channel. He had just started a cable TV company and this movie was used for the test run. Considering that we had 2 TV channels + 1 channel in Russian in certain days that was a big fucking deal

@@OnlyCops To an extent yes. When I was a young man in the 90's it was still ok to date a subordinate at work PROVIDED they did not directly report to you and you had no formal (and ethically informal) impact on their career. Now most companies simply ban either any workplace dating at all or, usually at minimum have lower ranks have to date exclusively lower ranks and if you are a Manager even if your proposed date works from home in another division or even in offices at the other end of the country, you simply can't do it. Quite frankly, I think todays workplace dating policies (including what counts as abuse of a authority) are too strict and often antihuman but to be fair such policies only exist because modern Sexual harassment law has gotten ever stricter and more Orwellian as well as arguably more sexist (Reasonable woman standard instead of Reasonable Person, let alone Reasonable Man).

@rcslyman8929 5 ай бұрын

Oh, it's even better in Michigan. Because the deer aren't just on the highway, or the country roads. I live in the Detroit suburbs. We have a pack of deer that wander around my neighborhood. And they aren't just in the suburbs, there's groups of them wandering in Detroit proper. They'll walk right in your backyard and just chill for a while, before heading back down the road. So times you'll see them in busy intersections, freaked out of their minds. Animal control isn't equipped to handle that, so often times... it's gotta be handled the other way. Turkeys are a different story, though. They'll just let the cars take care of them, if someone's not paying enough attention.

Sounds like basic training. But in basic training, we practiced squeezing the trigger and not moving the weapon (a dime on top, you had to do pushups if the dime fell off) long before there were any bullets involved. But while on the firing range, we had a girl shoot herself in the hand while re-arranging sand bags with one hand and still holding her M16 with the other and another person turn her weapon towards a drill sgt who called her name and got tackled. Broke her jaw.

You do know movies aren't supposed to be real life. They are supposed to take our world and twist it. If I wanted real life, I would watch Housewife's or old home videos. Movies are supposed to be fun and entertaining and to take you out of reality, and putting you in a world where a different reality exist. So, when you compare it to real world. It just sounds weird to me.

It doesn't matter if the movie is good or bad, cops shouldn't evaluate movies like this. Generally, they try to relate it to their own training and experience and that doesn't go well.

The Sheriff's deputy fired 6 rounds to dispatch a yearling ruining any meat that could have been salvaged. Nowadays I just keep a very sharp blade in my vehicle to deal with the animal myself if such action is needed. I still call in, of course, to report the animal and request a tag but have always been told to either take it or drag it off the road if I'm not taking it. Gotta love livin in the sticks. Lol.

This, in my opinion, is an accurate representation of this of online cop hater (everyone is an individual and only bigots make gerealizations). Your lack of real world experience lead to to believe (inaccurately) that either of these retired officers had a military background or felt inferior to a old slapstick comedy about police academy 🤣 All of their body cam is already public record (like all of it is/should be) and they both received honorable discharges for their service. Go find actually shit cops (who totally exist) on the internet and shit post their videos... or watch any of the other content we produce here, we out bad policing allllll the time.
