CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Three Chapel Hill police officers are off the streets following allegations that two of them posed as FBI agents.

A female student at Chapel Hill High School claims two men wearing FBI shirts presented a business card with FBI lettering and questioned her about a suspected hacking into the school's computer system.

"We're FBI Agents... Really! I mean, look at the shirts and business cards! We're FBI Agents. Would we lie about a thing like that?"

[Constitution Day]

"Hold muh donuts and watch this!"

[shadeaud]

With any luck these two will soon be wearing another customized tee shirt reading....''I belong to Bubba''

[Chad Fairbanks]

I'm guessing they'll still keep the shirts and business cards, except the acronymn will now mean "For Bubba, Incarcerated"

[Constitution Day]

"For Bubba, Incarcerated"

LMAO!

CD,

I was in Chapel Hill last week and almost got arrested for wearing an American Flag on my lapel.

The hammer and sickle would have been perfectly acceptable to them.

Ah, the Independent Weekly. It makes the N&O look like the Limbaugh Letter. I think they're still clamoring for UNC to re-hire Eric...

Good Grief ! It's pretty sad when when "Hey, I'm a Chapel Hill Cop" can no longer pick up chicks.

That's not much of an exaggeration, if at all. My virgin eyes were quite shocked when I first saw the personal ads in high school...
