Read. The. Story.

And this one: http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/032609dnmetcopstop.3e9c080.html

The cop was completely out of line.

Assuming that the "reporter" got the facts right in the story....a big assumption to be sure....

Looks like the cop needs to find another line of work. He's been put on "administrative duty", for now, which IMHO is a good thing.

Sounds like the higherups in the dept have a pretty good clue.
