squints have you met any police?

  Yeah have you? They carry guns and are prone to violence in the US at rates disproportionate to the rest of the population, and that's just against their own loved ones. > Two studies have found that at least 40% of police officer families experience domestic violence, (1, 2) in contrast to 10% of families in the general population.(3) A third study of older and more experienced officers found a rate of 24% (4), indicating that domestic violence is 2­4 times more common among police families than American families in general. https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2017R1/Downloads/CommitteeMeetingDocument/132808 https://olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2017R1/Downloads/Comm...

      It doesn't say anything, it's literally a question.

          This is a good moment to pay attention to the Hacker News guidelines. This is not a place for this sort of comments.

            Don’t threaten me with a good time. I keep asking dang to ban me; no luck so far. Looks like you’ve wasted about the same amount of time here as I have!
