Densey Cole Honeymoon
How about it readers? We're sure we can get Densey and Mary a few hundred votes:
- scc, Im sure your familiar with officer densey coles story. when he woke up from his coma he and his fiance were married in the hospital. They have been going through some tough times since then with mounting medical bills. They once dreamed of a proper wedding and a dream honeymoon. Due to the bills they cant afford it. They have registered at crate and barrel in the "ultimate wedding contest." If they get the most amount of votes, they will get the dream honeymoon that they had been planning for. If possible, can you post a thread supporting densey and his new wife. I really think that If he and his wife can win this it would really lift his spirits. After all he has been through I really think this would be an awesome thing to help him out with. Hopefully you can be a big part of this contest in getting them to the finish line.

90 seconds. Even including the 'verification' email you need to click on (so they register your vote), it only took 90 seconds.
I'm on a couple of other sites and I'll ask everybody there to vote, too.
I voted! Hope they win!
SCC- just FYI: you have to register with the Crate and Barrel site in order to have your vote counted. And once you register, you have to wait for verification before your vote counts. (I've been waiting for 45 minutes now.)
Let's rally for them. Click on the link and post the vote request to your facebook. If we all do this with an plea for help to all our friends, we can get these two a great wedding. It is worth giving up your email address for. I want to see us do this for them. Let's go.
i really hope they can win it,they both seem like such nice people.register and vote for them,we all know there enough readers here.
I went through a lot of the other contestants. There were a few with more votes than the Coles. One couple had over 1,000 votes! I voted and sent this link to everyone I know. PLEASE DO THE SAME!!! Lets do what we can to win this for them.
takes a minute. just do it. its the least we can do..
This takes 1 minute to complete, do it, copy the link into an email and send it to everyone in your address book online.
I'm a PO and currently engaged to get married this year. I could not imagine this at all!
Hey SCC
Keep this post at the top and do so often!!! I checked out this contset site where Densy and his lady are up there in votes, but NOT leading.
Everyone check this out and cast a vote for one of our own
You got my vote buddy. GOD BLESS U AND YOUR WIFE.
Ivoted under EVERY email that I have = 3 times!
Good Luck Mary and Densey.
On a side note, why are there pending/mounting medical bills!
This is an IOD and every bill should be paid by the city immediately. However, we know how the city works and they would rather you ruin your credit before THEY pay your bill!
FU Daley, Weis, and all the rest of the idiots that run this city.
Why don't we all just chip in a sawbuck and give it as an early wedding present? That should be plenty.
I posted this on my facebook page I have about 225 friends and I believe most will vote for him! I also asked that they repost it on thier pages.. Please do the same.. facebook myspace whatever...networking is the key to winning this one!
Registration, vote (and gift) took me about 3 minutes, email verification was received in 15 seconds.
They have my vote. But if they don't win let's all get together and send them anyway??
I voted...everyone should. They need our support!
I registered and voted and I only waited for as long as it took to get from the site to check my e-mail. Only one vote is allowed, so please vote for this deserving couple.
hell lets just raise the money and send our brother on a honeymoon- I'll pitch in, we do it for other coppers- this guy deserves our help
SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PLAN, I'LL LET EVERYONE IN 013 DIST. KNOW.
I WORKED WITH DENSEY IN 001DIST.
WHAT EVER I CAN DO TO HELP ONE OF OUR OWN, IM IN. I'LL BE IN ORLAND SQUARE MALL TOMORROW, IM SURE I'LL FIND THE STORE OUT THEIR TO REGISTER..
W.GODINEZ 013 DIST.
After all they have been through they really deserve something great to happen to them. I voted and am going to ask my friends and family to do the same. I hope they will be enjoying fine wine on a beach in Mexico in no time!
Let's rally for them. Click on the link and post the vote request to your facebook.
--------------------
Great idea ... done!
I voted- don't wait go to your e-mail and click on verification there!is it to late to give gift card on this site?
This couple deserves to win !
Took me less than ten seconds to get the verification email. If you don't get it, check your spam folder
I hope they win.
The real question is: If Densey was on duty driving a department vehicle, why does he have any bills to pay? Shouldn't that be considered I.O.D.? If his doctor thinks sending him to Colorado for treatment is the best option, the city should pay for it.
The city should also sue the shitheads who stole his gun and didn't give medical treatment. If they have no money, fine. Review their tax records and sue them federally for tax evasion like Al Capone. There has to be a message sent if you mess with the police you will be dealt with.
it took less than 2 minutes, to the person who is waiting over 45 minutes hopefully it is because there are thousands of us doing it, but more than likely the email that you entered was recognized by the site
Dear SCC,
It was very easy to vote. To verify your vote, you check your e-mail and answer the confirmation.
Best of luck to the Coles! I hope they win and get that ocean air and sunny breeze! Mrs. Cole wrote that her husband can stand up for thirty minutes. They're looking to create a good memory!
Ann T.
Good Luck Mary and Densey!! You deserve every bit of happiness that comes your way - and then some! Hope this comes true for you and you get to enjoy a piece of your dream coming true. We think of you often and keep you in our prayers.
Good Luck and God Bless
A Speedy and Complete Recovery
I have Always Wondered...
The Denver Area Police made Densey one of their own while he wa out there in rehad from his injuries and thank-you for that...BUT
Why..Why...Why was he sent to Denver in the first place?
We have the finest rehab facilities right here.
Why was he sent to Denver? Did it have to do something with that new company that handles or IODs? Or does he have family there and it was his/their request?
It would be good that his story gets on TV again to remind the public what we face and the animals out there that they might feel some sympathy for when they come to court.
God Bless Densey, his Bride and the CPD.
I voted, they're in teh lead by far, as of now. but keep voting!!
IM sorry, im an idiot, they are not leading...keep voting...
I will definitely vote for Densey. SCC, just friendly suggestion, please pass this contest up to other cop blog websites like New York, Los Angeles, Kansas City, etc.... lets have all of them register and vote for Densey. If we can get other police blogs involved and those police officers pass the message on to their friends, then I am 100% sure Densey will win.
If Densey doesn't win, then we raise money for him and his wife so they can go on a great once in a lifetime honeymoon. Either way, Densey and his wife will have a great honeymoon.
Just voted they were at 911 votes.
EVERYONE needs to vote. He was at 250 yesterday and is now over 900 votes. There is a couple with almost 700. Lets not let Densey lose. VOTE and have your friends vote too. If you have Facebook post it on your profile and have all of your friends vote.
1248 am, you have a bad computer or something was wrong. It took me 20 seconds max
I waited a long time for the email verification from Crate And Barrel, but worth it.
Everyone please vote for Densey and Mary!!!!!!!
densey dont worry we got your back. you will be soaking up the sun before you know it
I went ahead and posted this on several forums over at Officer.com also. Between us all they should win this contest in a landslide. Help out a fellow Officer!
I put this up on my facebook account as my header I will keep doing so until the contest ends on March 31st....... If you have Facebook, Twitter, My Space, put it up there. I got alot of responses from friends everywhere and they are voting. His numbers just went up 400 points in the last hour. It truly takes 90 seconds to do. If you don't see the email in your inbox, check your SPAM FOLDER. It might have went there as mine did.
As of now he has 1148 votes. Lets keep this going!!!
Here is another thought, on the same subject. Some of us have alot of frequent flyer miles. What about donating miles so they can get to and from the destination they want to go to. Mexico round trip depending on the airline like American Airlines is 30,000 miles. Delta Airlines is a bit more. I am looking into miles to donate now.
As of 1552 hours Densey and Mary are in 6th place trailing by 2200 votes for the top spot. He is shown as the #1 hot vote though, which means we are voting and that is good. . Keep voting!!! Vote early vote often it is the chicago way!!
I voted. Hope they win! It was quick and easy.
PS........ A dear friend who is NYPD got it up on their blog.... Let's try and get this on every police blog that will pick it up!!
I have posted it to my FB page as well as sent out to several email lists I'm a member of. Hopefully Densey & Mary can pull ahead and win!!!! It's the least this grateful citizen can do for someone who has given so much.
Done~!
They're in 4th place now. Keep it up!!!
Very quick. Plus you can buy them a gift certificate if you want. I did.
2051 hrs, 4th and rising fast. Let's get out the vote. They are the hottest vote out there right now. We are closing in on 3rd. Still a ways behind 1st. Let's keep going!!!
Voted. For the Coles, of course.

This needs as much exposure as it can get!
OT---
Update on the two Milwaukee officers shot on June 9, 2009. Thanks CPD guys/gals for your kind words and support...
The surveillance tape played at Julius Burton's sentencing Thursday is one minute and 14 seconds long.
It is June 9, 2009. A Milwaukee police van pulls up to a south side curb slashed by a deep afternoon shadow. Two uniformed officers get out. They are Graham Kunisch and Bryan Norberg. They approach a young man who has been riding his bicycle on the sidewalk. Their guns are holstered.
It is an everyday stop. A guy on a bike. It is no different from the hundreds of stops that Milwaukee police officers regularly make.
Then there is a blur of action, difficult to discern, as Burton pulls out a .40-caliber Taurus pistol and shoots both officers point-blank in the face.
"My life and my family's life were changed forever," Kunisch, whose face bears the scars of the encounter, told Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Patricia McMahon on Thursday. The gallery of the courtroom was literally packed, not only with family and friends, but with dozens of uniformed officers who had come to see what weight, measured in years, the attack on their two comrades carried.
Eighty years of prison - effectively, the rest of the 19-year-old defendant's life, McMahon decided.
That's 40 years of prison for each of the two counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide while armed that Burton pleaded guilty to in January.
McMahon also ordered Burton to serve 20 years of extended supervision.
Burton shot Kunisch, 27, and Norberg, 22, in the 800 block of S. 2nd St.
One bullet ripped through the left side of Kunisch's face. He suffered a brain injury and had to have his left eye removed.
Another bullet tore through Norberg's jaw, shattering bone and teeth.
In sentencing Burton, McMahon noted that Burton had elected not to take the medication that would have controlled his emotional issues.
"You should not be in the community ever again," McMahon said.
As word of the sentence reached the courthouse hallway, a muffled cry of approval spread among the dozens of police officers who had been unable to find seats in McMahon's court.
Police Chief Edward Flynn was among the courtroom spectators. He called McMahon's decision "a just sentence."
Note: Under Wis. law at the time of the shooting, there is no time off for good behavior, etc., so 80 years = 80 years.
Allow me to add some thoughts to the OT...
1. When officers are shot or beaten, judges and prosecutors have to know THEY are being watched.
2. What a difference from Chief Flynn's politically correct predecessor who once demoted a captain who encouraged his troops to "turn up the heat on the thugs" in his district. She said the use of the word "thugs" was offensive. By contrast, Flynn told his troops that they are expected to turn up the heat on "thugs" and keep it up.
3. Chief's presence in the courtroom speaks for itself.
It's time to close the season on officers and make the thugs accountable.
Densey and Mary are now in Second Place!!!! Keep up the voting... they are 1200 votes from 1st place as of now.
Just checked out the registry and it only has 1 item on it. According to the contest rules your registry needs at least 50 items valued at 2000 or more.
Mary, if you're reading this add some items to your registry so you don't get disqualified after voting finishes.
Good luck to you both.

Dear Cpd Coppur, SCC, and all,
According to the rules, and with this large a prize at stake, C & B will be checking for fraud. Please vote once per person only, and then pass on the info like Cpd Coppur has done. I have it on my blog and another person who reads the Coppur has it on hers. Networking works!
Ann T.
Of Course I just voted for Densey and his wife....I will pass this on to all my family!!!! Mr. & Mrs. Cole please have a wonderful Honeymoon!
Densey is only down 100 votes. Vote Now!
Emailed everyone on my list.
Voting open till march 30th or so.Have a very good chance of winning this...please have someone go through the rules with a fine tooth comb so that they are not DQ'd on some minor technicality
As of now Densey and Mary are #1!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!! I have blogged, networked, had friends and friends of friends repost on NYPD's THEE RANT, Dallsa PD, Facebook, Twitter, My Space AOL et al. I have hit every single site i belong too. If we all do our part and don't slack off on this, they will win. The voting ends on 31March............. SCC, I ask you to post this once a week as a reminder......... I literally have had 50 people working on this since I saw this post. And I know they have had 50 more working on it and so on............
The Cole's deserve this wedding and honeymoon package. Lets make a miracle happen out of a tragedy!!! Thank you.
They are in 1st and pulling away! Keep getting people to vote!
I just voted and they are in the lead! Let's go gang!!!
Networking works folks, It is on the THEE NYPD RANT, Dallas PD blog, Atlanta GA, and Salt Lake City........... Many thanks to friends around the country that are spreading the word....................... They are leading by 200 points now from a 2700 deficit yesterday........ Let's not let them down........ Some gave all............. He gave all........ Pass the word, and get this done....... I don't know Densey or Mary, but I know them in my heart. I as a retiree am doing all I can to get the word out...... I just takes a few seconds to blog it, Facebook it , Twitter it, send it in an email......... Every vote counts.
I read the rules and it seems that the person with the most votes doesn't win outright but something like the top three move on to a panel of judges. They are by far the most deserving out of the top three though. Keep the votes coming! They're #1!!!
In the rules it seems they get bonus points for having the most votes. Hopefully, if they have enough votes, the panel judges will see how many people want them to win. I think with everyone, they can eclipse the other contestants.
Also, in the rules, it states that they need to have a minimum of $2000 registered on the Crate & Barrel registry. As of right now, they do not have anything registered. Hopefully it is because they are planning to go to the store this weekend and register, and not an oversight. If anyone knows them, they should make sure they get their registering done soon!
To the homophobe:
First up, Densey and Mary aren't running "against" anybody. They are participants in an effort to get the most votes so they can have a nice vacation in the face of overwhelming odds.
Second, this is 2010, not the 1950's, 1930's or even the 1800's. What two consenting adults do behind closed doors doesn't really matter to anyone and doesn't really titillate the masses any more. Even the Supreme Court is staying out of the bedroom.
We decided long ago to not allow the casual gay-baiting that pops up all over the internet, just as we don't allow the use of the "See You Next..." slur, the nazi comparisons, and the assorted racial BS more common at "hate sites."
If you want to lash out at the "alternative lifestyle" communities because of your latent desire to experience man love, there are plenty of sites out there to vent your spleen. This isn't one of them. Enjoy your journey of self-discovery and we hope you're the number one vote-getting in next year's Crate & Barrel event.
To our CPD brothers, we have posted this thread on our blog. We have also sent out hundreds of e-mails and posted this on various social networking sites. The votes are going up by the minute! We have your back. May God bless the Cole family. You are an inspiration to all!
SCC,
First thank you for posting this. You are right there is no room for the homophobic comments. It really degrades the "spirit" of this contest.
Secondly, The Anonymous Poster is right, Mary and Densey HAVE to have $2,000 worth of registry ITEMS up on their registry inorder to qualify for the Ultimate Wedding. The gift cards are not enough!! They can be disqualified for this. If anyone knows Densey and Mary or if you SCC or somehow could reach out to them to let her know to get online and put up some items so this little "addendum" in a very long list of legal-eze doesn't disqualify them.
Overnight they went up another 700 points and are steadily climbing again this morning. In Number ONE PLACE.....Networking is working......Please try and keep this up once a week so they may get a wonderful wedding and honeymoon. In our darkest hours The Thin Blue Line is always there.
A dear friend of mine is Chorizo Guy on the Howard Stern Show..... Chorizo Guy picked this up on his personal website on Facebook and Howard Stern's Super Fans also picked this up. Howard is a huge fan of the Police. Email has been sent to Howard from Chorizo Guy to get this on the air. I will keep everyone posted. It is going viral..... If you have a Facebook account friend Chorizo Guy and tell him Arlene sent ya.
Keep voting and spreading the word! They have a month to go.
