"Respect mah athoritah!"

Chief Gordon Ramsay read from a statement during Friday’s Wichita police briefing, then took questions from reporters.
One asked how indictments released Thursday, revealing two officers being charged with obstructing a criminal investigation, reflected on the department even though the officers’ actions allegedly occurred in 2014, two years before Ramsay’s arrival.
Seemingly exasperated – and not by the question – Ramsay went off script.
“There’s a lot that’s been going on, right?” he said. “I’m passionate about the role police play in society. We do tremendous stuff for the community, so it weighs heavily on us. Community support is critical for our success.”
Ramsay may see support waning for his department after a series of events that have put Wichita police in a negative light. A 3-minute, 45-second statement about working with the community to create understanding and build trust was the result.
Ramsay is correct. There have been many recent moments to create doubt within the city.

I first read that as Chef Gordon Ramsay. And so I was trying to figure out how Chef Ramsay got involved in a Wichita police controversy.
I thought he was a chef.
The Police Commissioner is Paula Deen.
Yes, I can see why they have no credibility!
Isn’t this the same PD that recently took the bait on a false swatting call then murdered some innocent guy?
"Respect mah athoritah!"
Me too
Yes.
But they got the best Crème fraîche out of all the nation’s other police departments.
Ditto ; )
Chef is French for “Chief.”
