he knew it was time for him to leave when all the new guys were these steroid-fueled, shaven head monsters

You mean like this guy?

This photo shows a police officer shooting a bear, moments before an animal control officer on the scene was about to shoot the bear with a tranquilizer gun.

There was a lot of controversy over the killing of this bear; witnesses on the scene said that contrary to police claims, the bear was quiet and not "about to charge."

Video here. If you watch it you'll see a lot of police CYA going on, but no evidence the bear was about to charge before the animal control officer could get him tranquilized.

I’m on the 70-year-old lady’s side; but I’m not on the bear’s side.

That video is a pretty poor example. For one thing, there's "no evidence the bear was about to charge" because the video isn't showing the bear at that point-who knows what it was doing if all you have is the video. Second, at the end, the reporter says it was the animal control officer who gave the order for the police to shoot.

From the video: "The animal control officer who gave the order to shoot says he did not want to but felt he had no choice because the animal was getting up on its hind legs"

So basically, you have a picture of a shaved-headed cop but nothing in the video supports that he's a 'roid fueled monster shooting bears for the hell of it.

From the picture I’d say this fellow is an over caloried shaven headed cop, not steroids.
