TV show: First 48 Hours on A&E

[plifter]

Does anyone else watch this? It's the most fascinating show I've seen. It's a reality show where they follow homicide detectives on the job. It's unbelievable how stupid people can be. One dude owned an auto body shop and had a customer skip out on paying a $1100 repair bill. Instead of suing him in small claims court, he wacked the guy. It was premeditated too, it wasn't a split second mistake where he lost his cool. He actually planned the whole thing. WTF, 2 lives destroyed over an $1100 car repair? It's unbelievable.

Anyway, it's the greatest reality TV show ever. It's made me understand cops a bit better. They deal with so many people that do nothing but tell them lies that they probably don't trust anyone.

Sounds interesting I'll have to check it out.

Ever watch Texas SWAT?

Dudes break EVERY windows possible throwing flashbangs everywhere, even at people.

I saw one where they busted the windows out of a car w/ 4 old ladies insides because they wouldn't get out.

pretty cool.

And it's interesting to note how people in ghetto areas do everything possible to live in violence and poverty. I feel even less sympathy for them after watching it.

There certainly seems to be a correlation between intelligence and poverty. Stupid people make bad decisions in all aspects of their life which result in them living in poverty. The episode that was on tonight had two people who killed a guy in a motel room for the sole purpose of stealing $150 and his 11 year old Mercury Cougar car. Can you imagine spending your life in prison for $150?

most of them are drug crackheads, and most are stupid uneducated blacks and hispanics. Evne stupider, is when they donh't even help the cops - ensuring bad guys stay on the street.

Just stupid. Stupid in dealing drugs, stupid in staying in that neighborhood, stupid in not helping cops, stupid in having kids at 15 and dropping out of school. There really is no way - and they have to realize, non-blacks and hispanics aren't gonna help them or give a shit. Only they can help themselves - and of course that isn't going to happen.

cuz they're stupid.

And the violence and poverty will continue on. Long after we're all dead. Oh well.

Very, very true and unfortunate for them. I am very supprised no-one has tried to rebut with those tired, old, lines like you have no idea what it's like to be a minority. Or if you grew up in the hood you would understand. Whats there to understand? Go to school, take care of yourself, stay away from guns and drugs, stay out of trouble, get a job and get the hell outta there. I for one am so sick of peoples excusses. It's endless. Anyway the show is good. As for being realistic, I think it is one of the more realistic shows out there. I was on a board somewhere else and this show came up. Most people liked it but some where saying that they were sick of seeing blacks and hispanics in trouble and that this fact made the show appear raceist. One person went as far to write that the producers needed to do some shows in the mid-west. I live in the mid-west and guess who commits the majority of the murders here? Anyone? Blacks and hispanics, BIG SHOCKER huh?
No, but the show is decent though. I dont watch much T.V. but I will catch another episode.

Oh man. It's my favorite show on earth. It was even better when that sgt. was on there. Remember? He was short with slicked back hair.
