wait... you can become a cop in the US after only 19 weeks?? with guns and sh*t??

What The F**K! no wonder it's going to hell over there...

You can become a soldier in the US with guns and shit in like ten weeks! But I know there's a difference.

Soldiers are more comfortable in Iraq with a weapon than a police officer in the US. Even, when there's more accountability and rules in the military than the police force.

You can't get away with "I feared for my life" bullsh*t excuse in the military.

You kinda can. Hell, you don't even need to be in fear for your life! As long as you don't violate the umcj.



Another good one

Fatally shooting an unarmed individual is a violation of the umcj code and Rules of Engagement. You HAVE to get a positive ID in the theater of operations before you start squeezing.

Yeah, at least soldiers are supposed to kill people, and even they're not supposed to do that among civilian population.

My first day in the police academy, the instructor asked "Are you willing to kill another person?" Some guy said no. The instructor said "Get the hell out of my class."

OK, it seems I must rephrase my thought about the police and killing people: The police aren't supposed to be supposed to kill people. It's sometimes a necessary evil, but what I just read doesn't seem right.



Why does a lawyer need to make some extra money on the side as an Uber driver? Are things that bad in the US?

Not sure in the US, but in Australia being a young lawyer is very difficult, unemployment is high for law, often just to secure a job if they are lucky they will need to work many years at menial tasks within a law firm at low pay

Lawyers have also expressed great concern about AI (which is already in use) that actually does the research work in routine cases that young lawyers use to do but the AI does it better, the future for lawyers in Australia at least is quite bleak



Is the legal profession that saturated in America that lawyers have become uber drivers?
