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.

Just to add, my window shades were down so when I heard him I went to the window from behind them. Could I have been mistaken for a burglar trying to ambush him? Also, how should I apologize for the false alarm (accidental)? (I'm a kid who was alone)

Asked by DDG over 11 years ago

Accidents happen and a lot of people mistakenly set off their alarms.  However, the officers don't know which alarms are accidents or real until they investigate them.  If during the course of that investigation, someone surprises them - well, things might get tense for a few minutes.  Calling the PD once you realize a mistake has been made is the best course of action.  They can tell you if they want you to go outside, stay inside or whatever.

Is calling someone fake on Instagram a form of cyber bulling? Or a donkey?

Asked by Kennedi over 11 years ago

I'm not about to make a judgement call on what is or is not a violation of some state's laws on cyber bullying.  However, I would encourage you and everyone else to (1) ignore other people's hurtful words and (2) if you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing.
