Article seems to be missing something....

"grabbed Shawn Rauch by the throat in the police station, shoved him against a wall and called him a slur for a homosexual"

Okay....but WAS HE ACTUALLY GAY? Either I missed it, or as always, the media is turning him calling the guy a f a g g o t into something it isn't.

yawn article

Bad call on the headline Subby.

How did a jury find someone not guilty of DUI? Where was the evidence proving the person was or wasn't drunk while driving? don't they keep that stuff?

Seriously, it can't be THAT easy to just randomly assign some number over .08% to people you pull over and have it actually stick.

Cops are gay.

Isn't it actually incredibly difficult to falsify a DUI? Aren't you only ever charged when the test is validated at the station using the more accurate machine or a blood test? It's hard to fake those without a fair amount of work and intelligence that this officer probably doesn't possess.

Gaydar: It takes one to know one...

Sounds like a closet drunk homosexual

die pig. die...

"License and registration please."
"What seems to be the problem officer?"
"Do you have any idea how gay were going back there?"
"No, I was just listening to some music..."
"My gaydar shows you listening to 'The Best of Liza Minelli.' Sir, what is that in the center console?"
"That? Uh, nothing, just some trash. It's not even mine."
"Sir, is that a Rent ticket stub? I'm going to have to ask you to step out of the car..."

Anyone who speaks german can't be a bad person.

I dont usually laugh at comments. Even if they are very funny, i just sort of snicker. But you sir, made me laugh, and not just in the 'i'm typing lol because i think it was funny' kind of way. I let loose a hearty guffaw. Thank you sir.

Good job MADD. Shouldn't you commend someone for making arrests that lead to convictions instead?

/never let women with babies decide stuff
//went there

What's a slur for homosexual? "Homm...hommasek...hommasekshul...goddamnit, where are my keys?"

So if I call someone a n*gger, I'm only being racist if the person is actually black?

If you call someone who is white a white n*gger, that's when you start having problems.

what OldScotch said. (Ihatemydumbself, are you stupid or just trolling?)

It's not illegal to be gay, at least not from where I'm posting, or where the article comes from....

The guy was praised by MADD, which immediately puts him in the Douchebag category as far as I'm concerned.

The more shiat like this happens, ans the more people stand up for themselves...the better for us all. This cop obviously never heard of stonewall

this cop probably was loking for the following : pink triangles; equality messages; rainbows; Human Rights Campaign symbols; ertc. Or he was trolling outside of gay owned busineses and bars. It is not uncommon they played this game in Kalamazoo, MI about 10 years ago when i was @ WMU

"When we were kids we called someone a f a g because he was acting f a g g y not because he was gay."

shoved him against a wall and called him a slur for a homosexual.


In these days of "political correctness" though, just calling a homosexual a homosexual could be considered a slur.

Was the officers name Dwight????

(RTFA)

damn I'm disapointed

That's when you realise that you're Elvis Costello (new window) and should avoid taking a trip to Columbus, Ohio.

Take Two. (new window)

Did Drew put on the filter for homosexual slurs? Don't want to risk getting the banhammer, but I wonder if the filter would change these slurs to "Attractive and Successful LGBT Person"?

Who's to say if only assholes are attracted to becoming cops, or if the job just turns ordinary people into assholes? In either case I propose a four year term limit on all police officers. At least those that have to interact with the public on a daily basis. After four years you're either put behind a desk or discharged.

/That's me being nice

This cop was assigned to the Town Hall District, which is right in the middle of Boys Town in Chicago. The police station is at the corner of Addison and Halsted. All this cop needed to do was walk outside the precinct HQ and he'd run into dozens of gays. No need for any sort of sophisticated gaydar there.

From the article, Fiorito made up DUI charges in a scheme to earn extra overtime pay.

Nice.

Or Chelsea.

No. There's no reason for it not to go back to a better test at the station, but they often don't. Occasionally the cases are based on officer observation without tests at all. There have been several articles linked to here about times where officers used form reports and all their DUIs sounded the same.
I had an officer try to charge me with DUI, and he claimed I blew twice the limit (had no drinks). When I mentioned that I couldn't drink and it should be fun bringing in a doctor about my allergies, he freaked a bit and let me go. Obviously he thought he'd be able to make it stick just fine, simply because I was young and driving near a college, without any alcohol involved at all.

This farker arrested friend of mine on a trumped up DUI charge back in '07. Called him a fag, same deal. No breath test, no blood test, nothing.

/tossed out by the DA, thank god

That's no pass. Why insult someone for being effeminate, regardless of sexuality?
