BOISE, Idaho --A state police academy leader has disavowed the slogan of the most recent graduating class urging one another to "go out and cause" post-traumatic stress disorder. Each class at the Idaho Police Officer Standards and Training Academy is allowed to choose a slogan that is printed on its graduation programs, and the class of 43 graduates came up with "Don't suffer from PTSD, go out and cause it." According to the Veterans Association, tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers suffer from PTSD, which causes nightmares, flashbacks and physical symptoms that make sufferers feel as if they are reliving trauma, even many years later. Crime, accidents and other trauma can cause it in civilians. Ada County Sheriff Gary Raney, who attended the Dec. 14 graduation, pointed out the slogan to the academy's director, Jeff Black, minutes before the ceremony began, Raney said. A photograph of the program was e-mailed anonymously to news outlets throughout the state. "That's not something we encourage or condone," Black said. "It shouldn't have been there. It was inappropriate." Black said the class president was ex-military, and that the slogan "slipped in." He declined to identify the graduate. Black said future slogans would be vetted by academy leaders.

amazing.

Perfectly understandable. Anyone who has ever been trained by the military mindset should never be permitted into the police, at any level. When we look around America and see what is happening, particularly when we look at the police in America, is there any doubt that a big, big percentage of them are ex-military?
When a man who is honestly mistaken hears the truth, he will either quit being mistaken or cease to be honest.
Evidently you are correct.

Where I'm at, the police are only recruiting if you have recent combat experience. Why do you suppose that is? Just a few days ago, some punk skinhead recruit with almost three whole months on the job put about a thousand rounds into a hapless motorist for a minor traffic infraction. And the coverup begins... I was afraid for my life, he tried to run me down, it looked like he had a gun, he was on drugs, he was drunk, he looked like a terrorist, he... blah, blah, blah. Of course the little 20-something-'roid-ragin'-just-back-from-Eye-Rak assassin is now on an all-expenses-paid vacation.
dear god..
