Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.

I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.

Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.

How can someone get picked up for public intoxication when they are at their house when the police show up?

Asked by Makayla Oppman over 11 years ago

I don't know. How can someone get picked up for public intoxication...oh nevermind.

I am working on a project. My topic is police screening. I just want info from a police officer.

Asked by mauisheriff@gmail.com over 12 years ago

Sounds great.  However, I do not understand what you are asking when you state "Is there anything that might pop up in police screening?" as a follow up to the prior question.  If you could rephrase the question, I will answer it the best I can.

What would you say are bully characteristics evident in an offender? What are preventions of recidivism? What recommendations do you have for preventing bullying behavior in children? What about for strategies dealing with parents of bullies?

Asked by Lisa Simmons over 12 years ago

I'm not an expert on child behavior, nor on bullying.  There is likely a lot of research on the topic that you can find via Google.  I'd treat it all with a serious grain of salt though.  A lot (most?) research is funded by groups with specific goals in mind.

I can tell you from my exeprience, which is not scientific at all and should not be taken as such, that behavior is largely learned.  Kids imitate what they see, so both bullies AND victims are largely learned behavior.  Unfortunately, many parents, schools and even society is teaching people that being a victim is morally superior than standing up for one's self.  Sad really.
