  1. "OBSESSED is a term the LAZY apply to the DEDICATED"....OUTSTANDING TROOPER!!!!!! Asighn this TROOPER to all COLD CASE FILES!!!! Recruit TD Vito
  2. Sent some Imperial credits..hope it helps. Vito
  3. GOOD POINT on the MEPD logo not being used...I think the Rest of the graphic suggestions are to the point. Best regards from Huntington Connecticut Varg! Vito
  4. Thanks Jay, How about something along this line: BLACK SHIRT Front: MEPD Bold white letters centered over an IMPERIAL COG WHEEL: 'SECURITY' Centered under COG WHEEL BACK: BOLD WHITE LETTERS: TROOP SECURITY Thoughts??? RECRUIT TD Vito
  5. All kidding aside, I think the concept of having "Qualified and Designated"Wranglers/handlers THAT ARE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED (Shirt that SAYS EVENT SECURITY)should be explored, and duties and responsibilities clearly defined. A pre-Troop "SITREP" and route RCON is not a bad idea, try to rcognize potential PERPS and other trouble makers is the first step in avoiding un-wanted confrontations. All too often, we can get caught up in the feel good vibe, and have a false sense of security when we are inside our Armor, and the very limited field of vision contributes to the situation of "never saw it coming".. We need to maintain "situational awareness, and have WELL QUALIFIED WRANGLERS and handlers with a clear SOP for handling confrontations. always try to de-escaltte a situation, but at the same time, it needs to be emphasized that abuse, most ceartainly that of a phisical nature will not be tolerated. Aside from the fact that we live in a virtuallu consequence free society when it comes o unruly behaviour, all OFFICERS need to make it clear that while we are here for your ententainment, we do have standards of behaviour that we require from you. And while his may all be fantasy, the reality of un-wanted injury, and erroneous public perception looms large. We all need to embrace the concept of "decide early enough to be AGGRESIVE enough" in dealing with holligans who feel its alright to abuse us. And if that takes getting the POLICE involved, then so be it. If we just 'grin and bear it'..then we are subsidizing and condoning un-accepatable behaviours. RECRUIT TD Vito
  6. Perhaps the children would enjoy meeting another "droid" besides R2D2..."kids...this is the Imperial torture droid...would anyone like to volunteer...or should we just pick some one???"...Like maybe Mom????
  7. Happy Birth Day to Mark Hamill, 60 years old Today. Uh, Luke..BTW..we still have your Speeder Here in the Impound lot...and Boy are the stoarge fee's racking up. Does'nt matter you sold it, we found it abandoned, and still registered to you. Please contact us. MEPD Traffic and Impound division.
  8. Even though I've only wrangled 3 events, and that was back in"O7, I've never seen this, but it does not surprise me. Kids are truly "out of CONTROL" these days and that rests with Mom and Dad. Un-fortunately, if you hit a kid, your probably going to loose. My advice is to warn away, then, doff your bucket, confront Mom and Dad, call the cops, AND PRESS IT! Wrangleres NEED TO BE ON THEIR GAME and not 'checkin' out the eye candy". You need to be tactical. For the Adult PUNK-*** low-lifes/and truly agressive situations...I recommend CAPSTUN, its legal in most States, and you have a right to protect yourself. At least 2 Troopers should have DEW BACK PRODS, and know how to Parry and Block. WATCH EACH OTHER. Situations go bad in a heart-beat..learned that for real more than once. Recruit TD Vito
  9. I"M ALL FOR THIS. In my WWII Living History Group, we have a list of approved vendors. I know when it coms to "white suits", there are cavetas, and proviso to avoid the dearded c ease and desist order. However, I recomend the following guidlines for a Trusted seller endorsement. 1. Verified PAY PAL ADRESS 2. GOOD EBAY feed back if applicable 3. If from 'another juridiction" ..that Garrison's Command should provide endorsement. 4. A minimum of 10 succesful transactions. 5. POSITIVE and Timely communication.I'n really big on this. 6. Realistic delivery times 7. Updates on delays 8. 100% Money back garuntee 9. This is KEY : Offers merchandise keeping with the MEPD's persuit of excellence. 10. Stands by his quality. I think these are reasonable Guidlines. Handling $$$$ is always frought with peril. I think the command staff's willingness to mediate when required is sufficient in small(under $300.00) transcations. The Holding fund is a great idea, I think it needs further review and hard criteria. Recruit TD Vito
  10. Roger that....there is a HUGE pivotal court case right now in Connecticut involving "open vs. Concealed carry" laws pertaining to Firearms. For DECADES, it was "understood" that concealed carry was implied in your permit. However, the law has been dissected, and NOTHING implies a "concealed carry" vs. an open carry. Under the current interpetation of the law, if you have a permit, and any portion of the weapon becomes visible,you can be charged with "brandishing in terror of the public". Ridiculous... as to the dude in the long coat... " you need to be wary of what you DON'T see" V
  11. Philip, this is a VERY worthy cause, and a NOBLE work. As you know we were very Lucky up here in Connecticut with IRENE. I was in the Supermarket a few days after IRENE, and had to listen to the YAKK YAKK YAKK of someone Bitchin' about being out of power for a few days. It's usually something I'd ignore, but I have family in TEXAS, and I worked KATRINA in 2005 doing MEDEVAC. I told this "person" that unless you've seen a Homestead burned out, or smelt the stench of un-buried dead... " SHUT YOUR HOLE" ...word for word...it worked. GOD SPEED PHIL!!!! RECRUIT TD VITO

  13. " all Dew Backs MUST be "curbed" between Sunrise and Sunset while in the Tatooine Pedestrian shopping District".
  14. .........all kidding aside, A LOT has changed here in CT. Some malls will not allow hoodies to be worn BY ANYONE....and our Credit Union now requests that " All head gear and sunglasses to be removed before entering. As much as I hate it...what do YOU think when you see a kid with a Hood up, pants low, schuffling like a simian, and its 80+ deg outside? TROUBLE!!! Worst thing about it is most kids are too dumb to realize what statement they are making. I do know that there are several Municipalities in the U.S. that will ticket Baggy pants..
