Wow just wow. Police fighting the home owner instead of the fire.

What, did he commit Contempt of Cop?

They don't let that one pass, generally speaking...

Stupid white hetero male.

By 2016, he’ll get multiple 9mm punctures instead.

He is lucky that they did not shoot him. Officer Friendly has gone the way of the DoDo bird.

You will obey my authoooority. I guess the guy should have the e cops for trespassing because they certainly where not there to serve and protect.

Many years ago in Minneapolis, my mom witnessed a cop beating an old homeless wino. She begged him to stop and he told her to shut the hell up or she would get the same. She never felt the same about the police after that, even though she realized not all cops were like that. Still, such an episode errodes trust.
I wonder what she would think of her great grandson who is a deputy? I think she would be proud anyway.

I thought they were here to help me. Instead, they hurt me.

Stupid free people. They have to be reminded at every opportunity to obey.

Taking the job of a union firefighter is a serious offense.

Police were upset because the homeowner didn’t have a dog they could shoot.

“Sir, in the future, please have a dog available for our officers to dispatch with extreme prejudice.”

I’m old enough to remember a time when I actually respected cops.

Those days are LONG gone.

Let me guess. The cops are probably union thugs.

The local WTSP which is Gannet had a article too but the link only in FR stopped me from posting it. Link
