HUH????????????

If you're gonna quote all of that stuff, do me a favor..seems the following items are of real historical significance, so where are they: 1.) The Cross; 2.) The Arc (Noah's crusie ship); 3. Those Ten Commandment thingies...yeah "tablets of stone" (you'd think they'd be hard to misplace?); 4.)Joesph hiss own self! What ever happened to that dude...he gotta grave site someplace (seems none of these guys do, eh?)

Responding to a political statement with some scripture hocus-pocus really discredits.

If you had 1/10th the insight of Thinkin' Gal you be a thousand times smarter than you are now.

Serpico was an honest cop who stood fast and did his duty in the face of the most awful corruption. If you can't deal with that, I suggest you put your head in the can, flush and take a swirl!

Whoa J,

I guess you feel what Serpico did qualifies him eternally to make moral judgements on everything. I don't.

Regarding your knee jerk reaction that I should take an unconventional shampoo, grow up.

It's an extinct species nationwide and Frank has guts!

Excellent post! Very perceptive.

Welcome to FR, SkyBlue.
Be careful about making posts insinuating that all police officers are not Gods Walking Among Us^TM, it will get you in trouble with some of the denizens here.

I'll confirm the information in your post....they have many, many "perks".

My clearest memory of Serpico was on the Donahue show many years ago, complaining of the fact that a woman tricked him into fathering a child with her (he said she said she was on birth control), then having to support the child...

There has never been a better cop here in NYC.

I had to look in the dictionary to find out what a "denizen" is. I like learning new words.

My family, especially Grandma, always told me to "just tell the truth."

It's amazing. I've never joined any kind of chat/forum like this before. I just clicked and there was Serpico staying me in the face. I felt like a "higher power" was testing me to see if I'd answer the call? I wish it weren't true!

I don't remember hearing Serpico complaining about all of the anti-freedom measures Clinton, Reno, etc. had enacted or tried to have enacted during his 8 years.

That's because if you added ALL that stuff together,it wouldn't amount to 10 percent of what Bubba-2 has DONE. In his wildest wet dreams,Bubba-1 couldn't have gotten away with half the stuff people are applauding Bubba-2 for doing.

In the words of another famous detective, the Pet Detective, he is a "looosssser".

No,the real losers are the people who blindly support a statist president because he has a "R" behind his name.

The real losers are anyone who blindly supports anyone! The mind is a terrible thing to waste, people should use it to process not just to store.
