I put that on the dept, not the cop. Just like the pig up in Hudson Mass
that I ran into a few weeks back. Cowardly little bitch, I can see why
he hid behind my car... LOL! fucker....that one I put on the cop...

I suppose in the old days, "SWAT" was something of a respected division.
Now with each and every town having a swat team for God knows what, it's

cop. That's why we have the cool truck but when the shit hits the fan,
the local FBI respond...
