     A lot of good training does.  They show up for coffee and donuts and pass   
   the course.  Oh, the idiots of which we speak, maybe they were 'socially   
   promoted' and because we no longer permit failure (bad for  self-esteem)   
   they were sent out to capture bad guys anyway.   
      
   Yeh, if the public becomes aware of the abuses they'll review policy after   
   an 'unfortunate' incident.  Policy review does not take place through rose   
   colored glasses.   
      
   Hahaha... you do have a  point.  Remember the poor guy sitting in his car   
   after a 'high speed' chase.  They fired 125 shots... I repeat.. 125 shots   
   and the guy was hit but four  (4) times at as distance of not much more than   
   a single car length as evidence by the photos.  Yeh.. those guys are   
   dangerous. Until they are properly trained when to use lethal force and how   
   to use a dangerous weapon in a so very public area, the should be assigned   
   crossing guard duties. Since many have been around for a long time...   
   perhaps they are considered slow learners and just need more practice... or   
   were socially promoted from the police academy.   
      
   Now, if they received the same training using tazers... hmmm.   
      
   But of course, you admit the problem isn't the tool.. but the hiring and   
   training.  Isn't that what I said?   
      
   Actually, Kane. I am trying to protect you.  You see, if the shoot at me..   
   well, I'm relatively safe. It's you they will certainly hit.   
      
   Only partially true.  Their detectives are armed... but I shouldn't have   
   tossed that in.. it really did confuse the issue.   
      
   It was in our country that jail time for burglary was extended to equal that   
   of robbery.  You have to go back to the late 60's and follow history.   
      
   While you see Gacy in a different light, that as portrayed by the media   
   instead of criminal experts,  I doubt that you will be able to understand   
   that our criminal justice system is also contributing to the death of   
   abducted children... and it will only become worse.  In fact, within the   
   last few days there was some guy on tv most molestors have not, and do not,   
   kill their victims but they are now doing so to evade the lengthy jail   
   sentences... an effort to conceal identification and accusation.   He   
   pointed to the dramatic rise in child deaths recently. He took a lot of heat   
   from others on the show.. but that was to be expected. It's not policially   
   correct to show common sense.   
      
   The are but a very few 'thrill' killers  and Gacy was not one of them.
