Yes, the voice does it, but the setting has to be intimate, like those bar scenes in The Big Lebowsky. I can't see him doing well behind a podium.

I think a bowling alley would be a perfect place for the Presidential spokesperson to hold press conferences in the modern era.

Not funny. If you have nothing to hide, you shouldn't have to worry if the cops come. They would likely help him out.

Why am I not afraid of the police and I had guns drawn on me before and I was never terrified of them shooting me.
 
I did verbally assaulted them though and made them look ridiculous and in the morning the chief had to apologize to me.
 
They pulled me over for going the wrong way out of the alley with two white females in the car. They did not know I was the DD and bodyguard for two ranking executives so I gave them an earful after they withdrawn their weapons. A lot of f bombs and that they were stupid did come out of my mouth. The lone black cop had to come and talk me out of making it worse for them. I guess the white policemen wanted no part of my 6'1" 240 lbs of screaming in their face on their incompetence of me making a simple mistake.

In some places, I might have been shot but I doubt it if I did as told. I complied with the get out of the car with your hands up and not try anything. I had nothing to hide, just doing my job as a DD and bodyguard. So if you are hiding or have a warrant just comply with what the officer said and you won't get shot, it is that simple.

And you were damn lucky, black, white, or otherwise that things turned out that well.

I was never worried, not at all. I had nothing to hide and I did as they ask. It seems in all of these instances, it wasn't the case.

I am tired of people pointing fingers at cops. You comply nothing happens 99% of the time. You don't commit a crime, nothing happens. You eff up, whatever happens to you, it is your fault.

Simple life situations.

Cop has gun and told me to stop and put hands up. Should I run? Should I hide my gun? Should I fidget around or should I just stand still and not do anything? I will do everything but the last because he/she won't shoot me even though they told me stop and put my hands up.

Dumbass and in some cases earthworm food is the conclusion.

OK first of all you don't have a gun. You don't own a gun, remember? As for being tired of cops getting blamed, I'm tired of the ones who are doing their jobs correctly and competently getting blamed but the concept that a copy, or anyone else for that matter can just shoot someone because they're feeling a bit nervous and uncomfortable at the time is beyond ludicrous. Cops should be held to a higher standard, period. Does that mean they can't or shouldn't be able to protect themselves? Of course not. If this guy had pulled a gun or even something that looked legitimately like a gun I'd say she was justified. She panicked, plain and simple and I"m not saying I blame her for that, hell I'd probably panic too, but I'm not a cop. And it wasn't like there were 4 or 5 perps surrounding her and she was by herself, it was the other way around.

I think the fact that a 12 year old kid was shot and killed by a cop the other day was a terrible tragedy, but the way I understand it he pulled a gun on them. Now it was a BB gun but there's no way the cops could have known that in the split second they had to make that decision. Unless we're just not getting the complete story on this one I'd side with the cops. To me they had legitimate reason to feel threatened, to me the woman in Tulsa did not.

Now I'm not calling her a bad person or an intentional murderer, I think Bill Maher hit the nail right on the head last night, these people aren't getting trained well enough. They give them the "Wal-Mart cashier 15 minute training regimen (metaphorically speaking, I"m not saying she was literally only trained for 15 minutes)" and thrown out there. I have a friend who's a life long cop and he said the same thing, most of the time when this happens the cop was not sufficiently trained. They weren't ready when they were thrown out there, a bad situation happened and they panicked or over-reacted, or both.

I"ll post a couple of other things later this evening or tomorrow, but regardless of the root problem cops must be held to a higher standard. Yes people need to act right towards the cops, when the cop tells them to shut up or hands up or roll over or anything else they need to be trying to do it, but that does not change the fact that a cop should never shoot anyone unless it is totally unavoidable and one day you guys will lose someone you care about to one of these "iffy situations" and you'll realize that.

You are correct, you've seen my kids pictures. I don't want my boy who is very curious getting a gun and shooting his neighbor or his sister. My daughter would not pick it up at all. My swords is somewhere they cannot get to even if they tried, plus I don't think they can pick them up. THat is my defense. Yes, a gun is quicker, but you better burglarize my house in broad daylight, at home, on one switch pitch dark and a 100 lb Lab is gonna come for you as she is really protective of the family follow by me with decapitating means of separating your head from your body and you won't see me coming. Use a flashlight, you are dead, plain and simple, no gun is going to get to me unless you have a Tommy gun and spray.

You have to remember Hawk, I am a helicopter parent and I teach my kids and wife all survival tactics, what to do if there is an intruder (why would they burglarize me I have no idea. We do not have any money in the house and we don't have much jewelry either.) My kids know how to dial 911 and know if they can get to the door run to the neighbors if they are in trouble and our neighborhood is good at looking out for each other.

If someone is stupid enough to hold me up, they might see a few dollar bills and a few quarters for parking meters and shoot me because I pissed them off that I have nothing. So we have a problem there but we are in Wisconsin, this probably won't happen. Chicago or any other big city it can be.
