Tell me. . . tell me someone. . . that I'm wrong here. Good ol' Roy is allowed to 'hit' the streets and be a part of the Balch Springs, Tx finist. Then goes off his nut in a court of law, from the stand and scares lawyers. Anger Management issues. Actions speak louder than words. It looks to me like he failed this course bigtime. Then he's disrespectful to civilians. Can't communicate verbally or in written form. Next we give him a loaded gun and send him to an underage drinking get together. Why not just put uniforms on pitbulls? It'd be cheaper. Pitbulls can't shoot. Fingers crossed on this, other mean dogs have been allowed to walk. Michael Slager anyone?

Just Think-Before the cops got to killing-There was the JusThis book
Wednesdazz Read. . .
Chapter
1
The
Beginning
“Star
Star” (The Rolling Stones)
Chimlyn heard a
pigeon, or perhaps it was a dove, cooing softly. He and his buddies had gotten
together to enjoy some underage drinking, but the town cop and some deputies
showed up to spoil it. Everybody had scattered, leaving all the beer and other
drunken possibilities at the scene of the crime. The cops had somehow found out
they had planned to party at the barn, which had put an end to everything. No
puking, burping, or playing grab ass. Life could be so unfair. If he had gotten
apprehended (cop lingo for busted),
life would’ve been even more unfair.
Chimlyn had
ditched himself under a pile of straw in the hayloft. He just couldn’t get
busted. His coach would kick him off the team, and football was too important
to him. It was the only reason the other kids hung out with him.
He didn’t move a
muscle for what seemed like hours, and it worked. He wasn’t one of those who
got dinged for consumption by a minor. He made a promise on the spot that would
last one whole week: no more drinking.
He left his hiding
place only when he heard the prolonged sound of silence—no “10-4” or “How many
perps did ya cite?” or any other of the language the law used.

So here goes. You have an off-duty police officer who is involved in a fatal car vs pedestrian. The gruesome scene is what officers experiance from time to time. Then the incident is further personified when the officer realizes he knows the individual he has just struck.

Sample of JusThis for Wednesdazzz Read
JusThis
a novel
by Curt Rude
Dedication
If you can think it, you can say it. If you can say it, you
can write it.
This
excellent advice was offered to me by my loving wife.
Thus,
Peggy, this work certainly must be dedicated to you.
Prologue
It was a typically
dreary Halloween evening, full of warning of a winter soon to arrive in all its
wind-driven glory. Driving fast, perhaps too fast in the cold blowing rain,
Martin felt things could be made right. A sickening thud and a shattered
windshield brought him back from his obsessive thoughts.
“Christ!” he thought. “A deer? Not a
kid—god, not a kid or a trick-or-treater.”
Life suddenly
downshifted from fast forward to slow motion. The screeching of tires seemed to
last forever.
Martin leaped from
the car, unable to deny the reality of what he was seeing. His eyes pulled him
toward the carnage and a gruesome spectacle, the result of being in the wrong
place at the wrong time.
A large, bloody
mass lay in a twisted, morbid position. Ribs, blown from the chest cavity and
pointing toward the cold, uncaring sky while holding the torso up in a macabre
fashion, met his gaze. What seemed to be a never-ending pool of gore engulfed
the scene. Thick globs of meaty paste were spattered everywhere.
Martin’s
shock-numbed mind told him to check for vitals, but his police training told
him that would be foolish—the reaction of the sort of untrained, stupid
civilians who were the butt of cop jokes. No, this spectacle that had once been
a woman, a daughter, or maybe a mother, was now a bloody puddle of steaming meat and broken bones. Without even realizing it, he had stepped on a chunk
of waxy yellow fat that clung to the sole of his shoe. This pile—a former
living, breathing person—was giving up its warmth to the cold, indifferent night.
The skull had been split in two from the force of the impact and the eyes
pointed in different directions and seemed to be observing, but not
comprehending.
Martin thought
about the size of the impending lawsuit, but then thought of the meat scattered
all over the road. Lawsuits, meat,
blood. He even thought of how the blood always reminded him of gutting a
deer. Thoughts were screaming through his adrenalin-fueled mind without any
real direction or order.
He must have been
in shock to be thinking so wildly. Christ, what next? He was brought back to
the present by a woman screaming that she had called 911.
“Do you need
anything else?” she called out.
“Yeah,” he
thought, “I need to get away.”
It was like that
airline commercial he saw while watching games on Sundays. He needed to get a long god damned way from that mess!
Martin couldn't
believe fate had put his sorry ass into such a situation. Such things were
supposed to happen to other sorry-ass bastards. He wasn’t a cop just doing his
job and looking for clues at the scene of a 10-54 fatal traffic accident. He’d
been the driver.
Jesus Christ, it
was different being the driver and not just a wise-ass cop on the scene. Oh,
for Christ’s sake, he had worked thousands of accidents, but never thought it
would happen to him.
He found himself
thinking, “Let this be some kind of dream.”
But it wasn't, and Martin, locked in a staring contest
with the woman’s dying eyes, suddenly realized that he had looked into those
eyes before.Tuesday, April 25, 2017

24/7 Wall Street Article & My weekly rant.
Douglas McIntyre put together an interesting article under the headline "Why Aircraft Carriers Are Hard to Sink. Check this paragraph out. Do ya see a problem? Perhaps, as a writer I am picky. Interesting, one word can make the whole thing kinda silly.
Among the most important points The National Interest makes is that carriers are part of large groups of ships, Some of these carry Aegis combat systems, which are highly sophisticated naval defense systems. These groups also include their own submarines and a number of submarine detection methods and detergents.

Fort Collins Police Chief Hutto stands by Officers
As per yesterdays post, yes, it was big time excessive use of force. Chief stands by the 'man' in uniform who went off his nut. . . which as a professional he is paid not too. 115 pound Michaella Surat has no doubt been pummeled with charges after the body slamming. City will let it all blow over and settle quietly. Charges will be dropped. Officer Bruno will be given a medal. Everyones happy.
Folks in Fort Collins, talk to your kids, thugs done took over your Police Dept! Your daughters ain't safe on the streets of Colorado I tell ya.

Necessary? Fort Collins Police Officer Body Slams a Woman.
You be the judge. . .
But remember, Officers in Fresno California arrested an armed suspect after he shot three white men.
Now I ask. . . great police work? Now we can ascertain whether this is terror related or not.

Okay, so Steve Stephens kills a man and them himself. These comments are the end result. . .'I guess black lives matter only if a white cop is involved.' 'Shocked BLM hasn't somehow blamed this on society and the white man.' 'Black on black and no comment from BLM ... unless cops are the killers.' How about it's a tragedy and we're still holding our public servants accountable. This will result in superior policing which benefits us all. Check out Click&Learn and see if you don't agree.

We can still trust our eyes or did the Judical Establishment snatch that from us? For the law and order types please don't fret, these officers will get their jobs back. That is if past practices are any indication.
There ya go. Keep the pictures coming. I'll post one tomorrow.

One Helluva Fireworks Display
Let's see here, 59 Missiles at just north of a million apiece, the Russians were warned, who inturn let the Syrians know. They scoot while getting equipment outta there. Planes are already using the runway. The rest of the world watched and did not pay a dime. Many places ask for offerings for July Fourth Displays. I'm thinking we could have fired bottle rockets at 'em from a drone. Would have acomplished the same thing much cheaper.

The Fox has landed in The White House
As I peek at the comments I see politics seems to be on every ones mind. Here's the deal, lawyers produce nothing but arguments. It's what they're paid to do. Produce nothing but arguments. Business men are producers and search for results. Lawyers have invaded D.C. at every level. Whether as Lobbiest, Law Makers or Judges. So you see, feathers are getting ruffled in the Hen House called D.C.

My Book Sleeve would Read something like This
This story will interest those who long to understand the pain and
suffering found in the Middle East
Though
one can never condone the actions of a suicide bomber, my novel attempts to
understand the person behind the violence. What are the individual complexities
and internal conflicts that drive such destructive behavior? I sought to
understand these issues by giving a voice to a potential suicide bomber.
The Boy in The Vest is 106,292 words long and takes
place in war-torn Afghanistan. After losing his father, Yushua struggles to
provide for his family. Water flows from communal taps and wood must be
gathered for heat and cooking. When old enough, he is enrolled to receive
religious instruction. After the Americans arrive, things take a turn for the
better. Yushua gets involved supplying Americans with the only thing
Afghanistan has plenty of—heroin. The arrangement works well until an American
soldier uses his military advantage in a deadly double-cross. Yushua loses not
only family members, but his mentor. This is a devastating loss. The death must
be avenged even though the soldier disappeared back to his homeland. Obstacles
abound, but Yushua’s martyrdom operation is on track until love derails it.
The author is a graduate of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, VA, where it was
stressed that there are two sides to every story. This, and the insights
acquired during his career in law enforcement, were what drew him to research the
modern phenomenon of the suicide bomber, and played a considerable role in the telling of this story. His findings and conclusions may seem implausible, but
the tragic reality is that the experiences he writes about in The Boy in the Vest have happened, and
continue to happen.
Mr. Rude has self-published two novels, one regarding police misconduct, JusThis, and one about wrongful
incarcerations, Brand of Justice. Reviews
of the books can be found on Amazon and Goodreads. After writing these books, Mr. Rude appeared on the Fox affiliate in Minneapolis/St Paul and was interviewed on several
radio programs.
Readers who enjoyed The Kite Runner, Son of Hamas, and The Arch and the Butterfly will be hard pressed to put this story down.
