NYPD Officers Dirty Dancing

Have you seen the Video yet of the NYPD Officers "Dirty Dancing"?

This video is a perfect example that you're always being watched and most likly receorded. I'm sure if these officers knew that they were on camera and they would end up on YouTube, they wouldn't have even thought about acting the way they do.

I will not pass judgement on these officers, but they went beyond the line that I would have drawn.

On this job espicasilly when working Downtown you have women come up to you and try to get pictures with you, wear your hat or dance with you. In those cases you just have to say "Sorry Ladies I can't"

So if you take anything from this, know you are always being watched!!

JAPAN EARTHQUAKE TSUNAMI - A TRIBUTE 2011 March 11th

As I sit around waiting for my Vibram Five Fingers Komodo Sports to arrive :) I've been surfing Youtube watching the sad videos of the Tsunami that hit Japan. This video adds music which always seems to make it more sad....

Kelowna RCMP Brutality

Yesterday we had a "block training" session about ethics. The topic of ethics is a sticky one with officers, more so with the small things rather then the big issues.

Maybe small things in your mind, but where do you draw the line?
- Is it ethical to take that free coffee?
- Is it ethical to check up on your sisters boyfriend on the police system ?
- Is it ethical to give someone a ticket solely based on the drivers attitude ?
- Is it ethical to pull over that car to get a better look at it's hot driver ?

Those are the small ones that you may be able to sweep under the rug, the grey area maybe...

The story that the S/Sgt purposed to us was: You are a officer that rolls by a fellow officer on a traffic stop, as you pull up on scene, you see the officer has arrested the driver. S/he has the prisoner in handcuffs and s/he roughs up the prisoner (assaults him). What would you do?

If you are not a police officer think of this in the terms as the other officer being a family member, that will give you the feel of the  "blue line"

The S/Sgt wanted to know if you would have strong enough ethics to do what is right?  Even if you don't, will you do what you need to do to save your job?

What if down the road you find yourself in a Police Act complaint? what reason will you give the board for doing nothing? or even worse covering it up? Deceit will kill your career...

There is one big difference in policing in the past 10yrs ago. What is it? Now we are always being watched and that means being filmed on camera phones and being placed on YouTube for the world to judge you.

There's a video below, of an incident being caught on film. I choose not to judge other officers but I think the YouTube title gives it away. Now think if the officers tried to cover this up before they knew the video existed....

Firefighters watch House Burn.

Have you seen this story? Firefighters stand by and watch a house burn because the owners had not paid their $75 town firefighter fee...... Don't think this would work with the Police...."Oh your being murdered?, did you pay your police fee?...No, Sorry we can't help you"
