  • This is probably a dumb as rocks question. Is it a gun-shooting or a camera-shooting? It's almost certainly the former, but I'm trying to be optimistic.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_shooting

    Happens many times a year in the US, sadly, and people have started to become desensitized to it.

    In contrast, New Zealand apparently has only had one school shooting in its entire history, in 1923, so I can maybe see why the term is far more unfamiliar for you?

    Pretty much. Shooting brings to mind filming and recording more than guns, even with US school shootings popping up on the news every now and then. Although, I wasn't aware NZ's only had one. I thought there were more.

    Well, I don't think you're corrupt, so I doubt you have anything to worry about...

    Why would another cop accuse you of something like that?

    Sounds like typical workplace politics, but a lot more intense...I'm sorry you're having to go through this, but I'm sure the truth will vindicate you.

  • Of falsifying evidence? Of course I am. I would never be so stupid as to falsify evidence. Besides, his accusation contradicts the facts. Im sure I'll walk but its still a pain in my ass.

  • So I had my first performance/pageant thing that I actually prepared for tonight. I went home with the "People's Choice" award. Which means that most people in the crowd voted me their favorite. Which is really cool and makes me feel awesome. But I am a little disappointed I didn't win the pageant by the judges standards. I'm naturally competitive(despite my claims to the contrary) and feel like I should have at least come in the top three. But I didnt, so I'm this weird mixture of proud and annoyed with myself.

  • Ehhh, judges don't matter. The people know you should have won, and that's why they voted for you! Congratulations on swaying the masses, by the way. :P
