How the heck did this get off the original post comment? Can't we respond in a reasonably intelligent manner on here? Better yet, since most of the agency holds some form of college degree, reflect some of that education on here. :?

Psssst...guess what old man....the days of you in your prime are OVER. Go open up a can of Root Beer, sit on your porch, play Dominos and dream about them 'cause your life has came and went Pops. Now enjoy your Social Security, get some Denture cream and pet your cats. The only case you'll be solving is where you left your Depends.

I'll give you one thing. It was tough back then. We had to work everything on our cases, no help from other factions. The case load in GCU has always been heavy. Today, it's still heavy, but they have a little help. There's a pawn unit that checks all pawns, instead of the detective having to do that. There are office people who can check metal sales too, and other resources GCU can use to help clear cases. I've had the opportunity to work GCU in "the good ole days", and in this century. From that perspective, I can tell you not too much has changed, as far as the work load and case clearance goes. I'm an old timer. I find it tasteless, insulting, and down right idiotic of anyone who would get on a public forum and bad mouth the job that other cops do. If you were so great, Mr. Retiree, why aren't you still trying to influence how things are done? Instead, you get on here, making claims you can't back up. Go enjoy your retirement, and shut up. Let those of us who are still in the fight, keep fighting.


What you should find tasteless, insulting and down right idiotic is a uniformed deputy responding to Burger King to argue with a manager, then call a LPD FRIEND to get involved in this childish dispute, over a cheeseburger being made wrong. Really??? Do you think that reflected on all of us?? As someone else posted, EVERYTHING we do reflects on all of us. And to the poster below, if you haven't been in GCU, you have no clue about what we are talking about here. And the best you can do is ask about a double post?? Go wipe the wet from behind your ears. I think I hear your momma calling.

Any reason you needed to double post your sarcasm, then add a third post to top it off? I'm not GCU, haven't been for a long time, but I know what they do. I'm not a "college boy" either. I'm simply pointing out the fact that Grady is educated. So when you start knocking higher education, you're knocking him too. And whoever said people don't pawn anymore, obviously isn't aware of our pawn unit. I think what they probably meant was that people don't pawn like they used to, which is true. Unlike you, I can disagree with them without slinging a know-it-all attitude. You're a child. You might be retired, but you act like a child. You seem to make a lot of leaps to assumptions here. Is that how you cleared all those cases when you were a hot shot detective? I wonder how many people you put in jail while the real thiefs kept on stealing. Hmmm.

I have a question. If the pawn/metal clerks are doing that part of the work, and they nfl the ones with no leads, which according to the majority on here, leaves about 20 cases per hundred for them to do paperwork on according to the statistics of current detectives, what the heck are they doing for the other 39.5 hrs in a week?

You seem to be promoting yourself more than the original poster. You are one of the oldies they are talking about. And you contradict another poster who said that people do not pawn, so what are you talking about. Your making excuses for your old comrades, when they have already said they don't have time to do all that. As far as the college degree thing goes. I think Grady and most of the chiefs are intelligent and an exception to the overall watered down college degree syndrome. Most of the college degree boys can't count without using their fingers and toes, and it is scary to think they are allowed to carry a gun. If your one of those who thinks a college degree makes you intelligent, your dreaming. And as far as some of your comments about being an idiot for getting on a public forum and posting, go look in the mirror to see one of the idiots. And if the shoe fits, wear it GCU.

I see why the crooks were able to take the door off the hinges in broad daylight. The deputy was assisting his wife in fighting over a cheeseburger meal at Burger King. The burglary probably happened during his two day suspension. That is one expensive cheeseburger.

Thats because major crimes in making all the arrests while you sit around eating donuts. And they just starting verifying all these "college" degrees you guys get sent to you via the net. :evil:

Crime rate is at a 40 year low so we must be doing something right.

News Flash...College grauates also have high school diplomas. Maybe they have just a little common sense.

Everybody was a frickin' superstar when they tell us about their heroic efforts in fighting crime back in the 80's when one out of one-hundred people actually carried a gun. You can stick your Miami Vice stories and legends right in the closet next to your white sportscoat and trousers.
You twits didnt even have any college back then and you sure couldnt fight your way out of a paper bag these days because all the scumbags we fight have mixed martial arts training which isnt the same as your dumb karate crap back then.
Shut the f$#@ up, boy!


Wow, your bubba redneck is showing. Doesn't change the fact todays so called detectives can't find their @ss with both hands, much less clear a case. You still don't make the grade, and I would rather work with a high school grad than a person with a piece of paper that says they are supposedly smart. Cause that high school boy has something college boys will never have...common sense. And guess what, using your theory of one in a hundred carrying a gun, we still ran circles around you, bubba. At least we got the job done, thats more than you college educated boys can say. Your a joke. :devil:

It's a shame, because I know the pressure our GCU is under to do as much as they can with the endless volume of cases coming in everyday. When you claim you had a 50% clearance rate, it not only invalidates everything else you say, but it insults our intelligence.


Sorry dude, but you apparently worked somewhere other than this agency in property crimes back in the 80's. Cause if you got away with 20 percent here, you were on your knees to someone. We carried a good case load with 6 detectives. So please, you obviously are trying to make excuses for GCU, and I aint biting. There is no excuse for not checking pawn and any other place when trying to solve cases. I beg to differ with the prior poster stating they dont pawn. They are looking for a quick buck anyway they can make it and that statement has just plain lazy written all over it. And we self initiated cases back then by charging the felons who pawned firearms. So it really comes down to whether you are a good detective, or one who commits theft every month when you cash you check. We already know you are the latter. You wouldn't know a suspect if he was beating down your door trying to confess. And I have some old detective of the quarter awards that has the clearance rate on them, what do you have??? Better yet, march your happy butt up to Grady's office and ask him what he required of detectives back then. But when it comes down to it, as the original post states, the uniformed officer failed to do his job, and then GCU failed to do theirs. :wink:
