GOTTA STAY FAI posted:

I love that this is how the world sees the police in our country right now:

Sergeant Bacon walked with his eighteen-man patrol down the streets of Lardo, Iowa. It was nearly 1300, and the only noises to be heard were the clanking of their equipment as they walked, and the grumblings of the officers' bellies.

It had been nearly an hour since lunch.

Suddenly, Sergeant Bacon stopped the men with a hand signal--a fist at head-height--and pointed at a small brick home across the street.

I heard laughter, he thought.

He gestured to his men to form a chevron and prepare to breach the home and took the lead position.

Bacon heard laughter as they approached the residence. He stopped the men and crept onto the porch. He was peering through the screen door when he heard a voice yell:

"GO ON NOW, GIT! I'M WATCHIN' MY STORIES!"

The Sergeant turned to his men and gave a hand signal--adjusting invisible binoculars--and the men all gasped.

An old!, they all thought in unison.

Bacon yelled to the old. "Ma'am, don't resist or you'll be shot! Stop resisting!," but it was hard for the old to hear him in the first place because she was an old, and the gasmask Bacon was wearing didn't help.

"GO ON NOW, LEAVE ME BE!"

Bacon turned to the squad slowly. They could see his wide eyes through his gasmask. He gave them a hand gesture--an open hand, palm parallel to the ground, a foot above his head, signifying an afro.

A black old.

Numerous clicks and clangs could be heard as safeties were disabled and the actions on their guns were worked, just like in the movies. Unspent shells were ejected all over the ground. The men, satisfied that their assault rifles were ready, switched on their laser sights.

"GIT! I AIN'T DOIN' NOTHIN' WRONG! LET ME WATCH MY STORIES!"

A whirr could be heard as Sergeant Bacon spun up his minigun.

Andria Green, 8, and her sister Zoey, 7, set up the lemonade stand to raise the $105 they needed for tickets to the Texas waterpark Splash Kingdom. They were selling lemonade for 50 cents and kettle corn for one dollar on their street in the town of Overton, but about an hour after opening, police showed up and told the girls they needed a permit to sell the lemonade.

TUSCALOOSA COUNTY, AL (WBRC) -

FOX6 News has learned the Tuscaloosa Police officer who shot and killed a dog in Cottondale has filed at $10,000 lawsuit against a neighbor he says made false statements against him.

Officer Mike Azwell filed the suit against Deborah Bosch Friday. In the suit, Azwell claims Bosch made "slanderous and defamatory accusations" that have caused Azwell "injury to his reputation in the community."

Azwell, a Tuscaloosa Motorcycle officer, was visiting his mother, who lives next door to Bosch, the morning of Nov. 3 for a coffee break. Azwell says when he got off his motorcycle, two dogs started charging him, showing their teeth and growling.

That's when Azwell says he shot what he thought was a pit bull-Lab mix four times, killing it. Bosch called 911 and told dispatchers what happened. The dog's owners tell FOX6 News that they do not believe the officer's story. TPD released a statement earlier this week saying the shooting was justified.

Calling it his lifelong dream, local man Brendan Lockhart, an insecure and perpetually frustrated bully who believes he has something to prove to the world, told reporters Thursday that he is seriously considering a career in law enforcement.

Lockhart, a recent high-school graduate who sources confirmed is plagued by resentment, self-doubt, unexpected fits of rage, and has always had a penchant for tormenting those who are smaller and weaker than him, explained that he feels he is well suited to serve as a police officer.

“I’ve always wanted to be a cop,” said Lockhart, whose paranoia and inferiority complex constantly haunt him, leading him to lash out at others in order to convince them he is in control. “I know it’s a tough line of work, but I think I’ve got what it takes to earn my shield and get out there and keep the peace.”

“This is the job I was born to do,” continued the man whose main goal in life is to prove to others that he is strong, confident, and not afraid.

Friends and family confirmed that Lockhart, an unpredictable, petty individual who frequently loses his temper when he feels he is being threatened or disrespected, has in recent months been inquiring into joining the ranks of the Raleigh Police Department. In this role, the man with a massive chip on his shoulder and no visible sense of empathy would be tasked with peacefully resolving disputes and evenhandedly administering justice to members of the community over whom he would have official power.

Specifically, sources speculated that should Lockhart successfully complete the 17-week officer training program and cursory psychological examination necessary to become a cop, the 18-year-old, who suffers from feelings of inadequacy and frequently explodes in emotional outbursts against people he perceives to be mocking him, would on a daily basis be placed in delicate situations requiring extreme patience and sound judgment.

“My dad’s encouraging me to go to the academy, and he says that once I graduate I can probably get a job around here,” said Lockhart, referring to the man whose own lack of compassion and propensity for inexplicable violence is largely to blame for similar patterns in his son, and who is himself a veteran police officer. “Once I’m a cop, I’m going to do what I have to do to make sure these neighborhoods stay safe.”

“I bet a lot of people don’t think I can do it, but I’ll show them,” continued the man who could in six months’ time possess both a standard-issue firearm and the city-sanctioned authority to unholster and fire the weapon.

When pressed for further comment, sources close to the man who hopes to play an active role in protecting his community confirmed that Lockhart constantly goes out of his way to intimidate and belittle those people he knows are too submissive to fight back. The 18-year-old often fantasizes at length about getting revenge on those he believes have wronged him. When frustrated or enraged with his own general powerlessness in the world, he reportedly has a tendency to take out these emotions on the first person he comes across, with little or no provocation. Lockhart routinely gets in screaming arguments with others and must be physically restrained as his anger reaches a white-hot pitch, frightening all around him. A devoted fan of mixed martial arts, Lockhart is capable of watching YouTube videos of people being pummeled senselessly for hours at a time.

Sources also felt it bears mentioning that Lockhart is an impassioned and unapologetic racist.

When asked to outline his motivations for entering the field of law enforcement, the perpetually infuriated bully who could very soon be responsible for the security and well-being of thousands of innocent people explained that he feels a personal obligation to do whatever necessary to safeguard society.

“There’s a lot of bad people out there who think they can get away with doing whatever they want, and someone has to stop them,” said Lockhart, his hands unconsciously closing into tight fists. “So if I don’t step up and show everyone who’s boss, who will?”

“Plus, I’ve been talking to my buddies at the gym, and a bunch of them are gonna be cops too,” Lockhart continued. “It’ll be great.”

Of course probably the only reason this conviction went through was cause the victim is white but it's a step in the right direction
