It’s always sad when a police officer breaks the law. The very people sworn to protect us from the tyranny of injustice becoming part of that tyranny brings a tear to my eye, unless they do something really stupid in the process of committing such a crime. Then it brings a tear to my funny bone.

Cops are people too! If you prick them, do they not bleed? If you tickle them, do they not laugh? If you fill them full of whiskey and vodka, do they not get drunk and then try to pull a fellow officer over who just pulled them over?
A reserve officer did just that, according to the Indianapolis Star.

Once again, we don’t find anything remotely funny or amusing about drunk driving. It’s a rotten, selfish, horrible and sad fact of daily life that affects someone somewhere everyday. And I’ve just now realized I’ve made it impossible to write a joke in this entry.

Why Men Don’t Ask for Directions

Maryland apparently has their own brand of protecting and serving.
WBAL-TV 11 News I-Team reporter David Collins said Joshua Kelly and Llara Brook, of Chantilly, Va., got lost leaving an Orioles game on Saturday. Collins reported a city officer arrested them for trespassing on a public street while they were asking for directions .
“In jail for eight hours — sleeping on a concrete floor next to a toilet,” Kelly said.
[...]
Hopelessly lost, relief melted away concerns after they spotted a police vehicle.
“I said, ‘Thank goodness, could you please get us to 95?” Kelly said.
“The first thing that she said to us was no — you just ran that stop sign, pull over,” Brook said. “It wasn’t a big deal. We’ll pay the stop sign violation, but can we have directions?”
“What she said was ‘You found your own way in here, you can find your own way out.’” Kelly said.
Collins said the couple spotted another police vehicle and flagged that officer down for directions. But Officer Natalie Preston, a six-year veteran of the force, intervened.
“That really threw us for a loop when she stepped in between our cars,” Kelly said. “(She) said my partner is not going to step in front of me and tell you directions if I’m not.”
And adding insult to injury:
Collins said the couple was released from jail without being charged with anything…
Collins said police left Kelly’s car unlocked and the windows down at the impound lot. He reported a cell phone charger, pair of sunglasses and 20 CDs were stolen.
Baltimore City police said they are looking into the incident.
