Might be the MS-13 look.

Not criminal. I've had a lot of inked up friends. It does show a certain level of judgement IMHO though. But I'm old and curmudgeonly, so there's that. I just don't think it looks "professional".

I look at tattoos like this, if you are a productive member of society and support your family and can afford the ink, go crazy, now, the folks living in subsidized housing, using food stamps to feed their family, they have no business paying for a tattoo. Obviously just my opinion as someone with a little ink.
I won’t get into the professional aspect, as it doesn’t make any difference to me if a person has tattoos… ok, to be honest, face tattoos make me seriously doubt someone’s judgment.

Cop needs fired AND to lose his drivers license.

How does he remember to breathe? What kind of moron parks on RR tracks?!?!?!!?

Oh, and his pension should be paid out to the victim.

Not to mention that the majority of mugshots and wanted pictures show people with a lot of ink.

He's only "half-gangsta".

As a locomotive engineer…I would sue the cop for emotional distress

He should have told her to pull up farther past the tracks so when he got out he wasn’t on them. Probably a lot of excitement thinking she had a gun in there and might use it on him.

So....training issue?

Not trying to derail the thread, of course. Just keep it on track.

I see what you did there.

 

[nonobaddog]

I don't think it is a training issue. If you have to train somebody to not park on railroad tracks, they were probably a lost cause to start with.

Interesting thought. Can the railroad, locomotive company and the engineer ALL sue? I would imagine there may be track damage, train damage and emotional damage.

The railroad could technically sue for trespassing at any crossing accident, and claim damages. But they usually settle.
the crew could, but it’s usually a family in mourning and not really an issue.
this is the negligence of the officer/department. I would sue their pants off.

Well she will be set up for life after the law suit I would imagine....9 broke ribs might be worse than the rest of the injuries. Great pay day if you survive by cop. Sounds like more cops had showed up.....yet no one told the other cop to get his SUV off the tracks......? Maybe the entire shift should be fired.....lol.

So you’re saying their careers should be derailed?

Stupid can be expensive, especially if you are really good at it.

 

[nonobaddog]

I wonder if that cop ever thinks about how stupid he was or if he is more concerned with excuses and blaming other crap.

Not everyone saw it coming, obviously. Once they think about it, though *bam*, it hits them.
