In 22 more days, it'll be 8 years, you idiot!
Once? You wore it the other day when we were playing "good cop, bad cop, really bad cop."
And just how did you make it stay on, anyway??
I thought I left it in Car 54!
He would probably go to the hospital to take the father's statement on what happened, in case the father rode in the ambulance with his child. It's not uncommon for officers to go to the hospital to take statements. FYI, depositions are legal statements/testimony sworn to be a true statement, under oath, into record. That statement can be used in a court of law.
Thanks! You don't know how much it means to have the word of someone who's been there against the words of a bunch of wannabees...
==================================
Your question reminds me of all the assholes and pussies I knew back when I was a sworn to. I can't tell you how many times some bozo would ask the same thing at a barbeque, and always with the same 'innocent', 'honest, I just want to know' dumb look. You learn pretty quick to walk away from these clowns.....bye.

Actually, I think that's the law in Hollywood. You know, sort of like how every bag of groceries has to have French bread sticking out of it. Strippers and bakers apparently both have a heck of a union.
Having a couple of family members who work in law enforcement, I seriously doubt you will get any serious answers, due to the way you have posed your questions.
Yep! :-)

But I'm not, and the poster is a troll, genius.
But this one is actually true, for some reason...
Great-Uncle was a cop in Newark for nearly 30 years (maximum for retirement). Only drew his gun ONCE, and that was during the 1967 riots. He told me that during said incident, he was more afraid of getting hit by some teenage National Guardsmen than the rioters themselves (most of who were guys with rap sheets who he had pinced in the past, or dumb kids looking for a TV set). Never shot anyone either.
