What do severed fingers, mushrooms, and officer created jeopardy have in common...well a lot actually. On this episode Anthony and Gary open up the comments section to their content and share some laughs about some of the interesting feedback they've received. Plus they check in on the so called "experts" who have recently testified during the trial of Officer Schurr. One of them coined a term "officer created jeopardy" and they discuss why it should have nothing to do with the reasonableness standard the police are held to. 
Then they tie that into a police call for service in Oregon where a man decided to get high on mushrooms, burn himself, and cut off his fingers. This man is now suing the police as he claims they didn't do their job.
Plus a woman in Kansas City stabbed fire fighter, Graham Hoffman, to death and the actions of the police are again under fire instead of the actions of the criminal.

Gary and Anthony start the episode chatting about what Easter means to them and the Hope it gives to them even in the midst of all the madness in the world. That madness includes a Portland PD incident where a police leader has officers abandon their duty to protect the public, allowing a criminal to do as he pleased and literally deciding to do nothing to stop him. They also discuss the tragic case involving the murder of Austin Metcalf and how identity politics focuses on outward appearances and not on content of character. They provide an update on Ofc. Christopher Schurr's upcoming trial and also briefly discuss the arson incident at the PA Governor mansion.

On this episode Gary and Anthony take a look at a recent incident involving a suspect brandishing a chainsaw in a retirement home. The video demands a discussion on hesitation by officers that seems to be driven, in part, by a focus on de-escalation. Are trainers doing a disservice to officers in training when they don't better define de-escalation and when and how it should be used? They also take a look at a recent incident in Rochester, NY (a sanctuary city) where officers were thrown under the bus by city leadership after assisting federal officers on a tense traffic stop. Additionally they take a look at a female Miami PD officer who failed to intervene in a beating taking place right in front of her which reopens a discussion on the 30x30 initiative. An update on the cases against Ofc. Mac Marquette and Ofc. Brad Lunsford are also provided and discussed.

On this episode Gary and Anthony compile an update on the cases and trials against Ofc. Brad Lunsford, Ofc. Christopher Schurr, Ofc. Terence Sutton, and Ofc. Mac Marquette. These cases represent a sobering reminder that officers are being unjustly charged for crimes while doing a job the public has asked them to do.
Reviewing these cases brings about a discussion about the use of the taser in law enforcement. Over the years the taser has been pushed up to a higher level of force for officers, causing it to become a tool that is less useful and more of a liability for officers.
Gary and Anthony also discuss President Biden's pardon of a cold-blooded cop killer who executed two FBI agents in 1975. They close the episode having a good time with recent comments to the podcast about how we are "copsplaining" and lack skill in creating content.

On this episode Gary and Anthony look at the case against Ofc. Brad Lunsford. The Soro's funded Attorney General of New Mexico ignored the reasonable officer standard for use of force incidents and charged Ofc. Lunsford with voluntary manslaughter in a complete miscarriage of justice. His trial is happening right now and we break down the incident and why Ofc. Lunsford operated as any reasonable officer would have.
In addition germophobia, Presidential Executive Orders, and Punxsutawney Phil are all addressed and we reveal the new name that's coming for the podcast!

On this episode we discuss some feedback about our last episode and clarify our thoughts on social workers in law enforcement. We also discuss our desire to not just be a podcast of outrage click bait and revisit the mission of why we get behind the mics for these episodes. In addition we discuss how the killers of Officer Allen Gibson Jr. have been granted clemency and some insane trans laws that are responsible for the victimization of female prisoners. We also discuss completely out of touch comments by a Los Angeles Assistant Chief that are raising some eyebrows.
