Chuckle-Heads

Remember when we used to be able to shoot burglars?

Yeah, we don't either. Before our time. But the old guys have some stories. This is funnier:
  • MICCOSUKEE TRIBE INDIAN RESERVATION, Fla. - A man who jumped into a lake to flee police was killed by an alligator more than 9-feet long, officials said Tuesday.

    The man, whose name has not been released, was allegedly burglarizing a vehicle in the parking lot of the Miccosukee Resort and Convention Center on Thursday. He ran when police arrived at the scene, said Dexter Lehtinen, one of the tribe's police legal advisors.

    Tribal police divers searched for the man that night, then again Friday morning and afternoon. During the third dive, the body was recovered. It bore alligator teeth marks on the upper torso.

Hilarious - fleeing felon eaten by a reptile. Insert punchlines in the comment section.

And if that wasn't stupid enough:
  • A man trying to loosen a stubborn lug nut blasted the wheel with a 12-gauge shotgun, injuring himself badly in both legs, Kitsap County sheriff's deputies said.
  • From about arm's length, the man fired the shotgun at the wheel and was "peppered" in both legs with shot and other debris, with some injuries as high on his body as his chin, according to a sheriff's office report.
But he lived, so it's not as funny as it could have been.

I remember when I came on,and we had all those legendary deputies. You know, the ones that fought us getting the automatics,saying the wheel guns were good enough for them , so their good enough for us.
Yea,alot of them were legends, w/their shootings/kills. Turns out most of them got their kills w/unarmed burglars. That stopped the month before I hit the street.Those dep.chiefs started the de-cline of this dept;I hope they all choke on their whiskey bottles....

If that alligator thing happened in Chicago, Loevy would have paid someone to glue a checkerboard around its neck in attempt to prove that it was a CPD approved alligator and excessive force was used.

Where would the alligator force option end up on the Use of Force Model anyway?

When I got on the job in 1966 not only could you shoot burglars, but the "old timers" regularly shot at auto thieves which was legal when they got on. And no community protests or store front reverends.

The job was actually fun.

When I read what's going on today it makes me feel sick. Although I wouldn't mind losing the aches and pains, gray hair, wrinkles and extra pounds; I wouldn't trade places with you youngsters today for double the pay.

Cover each other, maximize deferred comp, stay safe and go home to your family. That's all that matters today.

You guys and gals are in my prayers.

Old timer.

The alligator thought he was McGruff so he took a bite out of crime.

In the end, all cirminals will eventually get devoured by a reptile. In this case, it was an aligator instead of a lawyer.

I hear what you're saying, but let's use the proper terminology here: "semi-automatics".

I remember when she could shoot burglars too. There was a court decision from a law suit in another state that put a stop to it.

Damn courts screwed up a fun job.

Well I think the family of the man who the Police failed to arrest and failed to rescue from the alligator should sue the shit out of the Police dept and city.

The Police have have the responsibility to take the offender into custody and protect him from bodily harm.

I can hear the headlines now. The Police chased the VICTIM towards the lake KNOWING it was infested with gators!

$ounds like Mama $quaw just won the tribal lottery...

as a business owner in 008, I'd like to thank you guys for the thankless job you do. I also think you should trade in your canines for gators, they do a much more thorough job, and the honor students would really shit their hangdown pants when you let one of the scaly ones out of the back seat.
