#6  Nonsense, P2K. 70 miles from Albuquerque gets you through Santa Fe, and seven miles beyond.

Now, heading west from Salt Lake City 70 miles leaves you 50 miles east of West Wendover.

#4  All these reports keep saying that Ramstein is "near Frankfurt". It's 70 miles from Frankfurt to Ramstein, which is to the north of Kaiserslaughtern. These are GERMAN reporters making this comment. Were they all from the East, or is 70 miles considered "close"?

#3  Another good one is to move a guy to a wall where it is about six inches away from his back. Then shove or body slam him with everything you got. The impact of hitting the wall and bouncing off it happens before the body can react and it really stuns the guy.

#2  Yeah moose, Savannah cops are known for that tactic when handling unruly drunks at the St Patty's festivities. On occasion after hog tying the perp they've been known to lift them waste high and drop them. Takes the fight right out of ya.

#1  A police trick, when capturing a particularly nasty perp, is to use the asphalt as sandpaper on the perp's face. When he is first tackled and resisting, smashing his face a few times into the street. Then, after he is restrained, hand and ankle cuffed, they pick up his legs and drag him to the car on his face.
