(100,133 posts)I'm glad to hear these cops are venting about it.
We used to have a column called The Blotter in a local weekly that was written by someone very tongue in cheek. Drunk man tries to enter wrong apartment and complains his key doesn't fit the door, that kind of thing. No names.
Sigh. Now I realize that was 25 to 30 years ago, before we had screaming headlines about a crazy former postal worker who went postal, a crazy student who accelerated his car to 60 mph and plowed into a crowd of college kids just out enjoying the evening....
Still, I think there's a valid point in here somewhere. I think those cops need a local outlet, anonymous of course, where they can tell some online reporter about the stupidity they encounter among their fellow citizens.
