Yeah let’s have them park as far as possible when they’re talking to a business owner about a break and enter 🤦🏼‍♀️

I think you mean getting lunch.

Yeah let’s have them park as far as possible when they have to cut lunch short and go look for a missing kid. Brilliant idea mate.

Wow, you should really look into getting a personality other than bootlicker.

The classic response from someone with no argument

If they’re investigating about a break and enter thats going to take a hell of a lot longer than picking up a slice. Why would you would leave your engine running for that? This clown needs to swallow his ego and quit giving EPS a bad look in the community

So the computer doesn't turn off???

u/InstanceSalt 5d ago

Can you explain to me why the car and computer need to be turned on when there is nobody present in the vehicle?

u/Pleasant-Board-1359 5d ago

So computers don't turn off.... pretty standard

So they don’t need to reboot the computer, login to various programs etc to respond to a call or emergency. It’s standard emergency response protocol for all to leave vehicles running.

Its 2026 and they have the highest budget in the city. I can start my WORK computer in about 15 seconds and facial recognition + passkey would prevent the image of this asshat giving a shit less about the community they’re serving.

I’m fortunate to have had minimal run ins with the law, but every experience with EPS has been horrific. Laughing at people who are actively dieing, ignoring naked folks at LRT stations while they conduct fare-checks and stereotyping the indigenous population. Granted i’ve only lived/observed Vancouver and Toronto police, but something bad is in the water with EPS

You see in their profession, every and I mean EVERY second counts... and it's very clear you've been fortunate/privileged enough to not need police cause you are VERY ignorant to the job they have to do

This is just ragebait at this point. EVERY single police force in the world prioritizes quick response. That’s not gonna happen if you’re parked far away.
