Did Detective John McClane finally get his due?

redsquid		2012-05-12 04:49:13 PM

What about the bottom cops? Or even the power bottom cops?

Point02GPA		2012-05-12 04:49:38 PM

Well, that make sense. The President didn't want to get arrested for having faked his draft registration.

Curious		2012-05-12 04:49:44 PM

sheriff joe is going down.

can't be soon enough.

bim1154		2012-05-12 04:50:27 PM

This should be amusing.

Speaking of top cops, I'm watching First Blood right now. Just yelled "No you won't!" to the tv screen when Dennehy was talking about how he was gonna pin Rambos medal of honor to his dead body.

After his interview the other night you would think he would be inclusive of tops and bottoms

Azz		2012-05-12 04:51:05 PM

Cue the obligatory attacks from the right

"Why is Obama ignoring the firefighters and the doctors???? This man must be gone!!! DERP I'm going to go screw my cousin/sister now."

blorpen		2012-05-12 04:56:53 PM

34...like rule 34?

9beers		2012-05-12 04:59:53 PM

I'm surprised that he found time to break away from the parties in Hollywood.

edmo		2012-05-12 05:05:04 PM

I thought he was too busy vacationing on his Texas ranch whacking bushes for that kind of thing.

STRYPERSWINE		2012-05-12 05:05:18 PM

I hope that in 2013, Obama is unemployed and Joe is still in office giving the Stone Cold salute.

skinink		2012-05-12 05:08:29 PM

Originally Obama was against honoring the cops until VP Joe Biden went on "Good Morning America" and proclaimed that bacon was okay.

oryx		2012-05-12 05:09:21 PM

That's really heroic, reading a list of names somebody gave Obama.

STRYPERSWINE: I hope that in 2013, Obama is unemployed and Joe is still in office giving the Stone Cold salute.

I hope the next time I stop to take a piss at some god-forsaken run-down gas station outside Gallup New Mexico that the filth caked urinal turns out to be full of Krugerands.

But it's not too likely.

krackpipe		2012-05-12 05:09:43 PM

FTFA: "Budget strains at the state level have also caused a rise in law enforcement layoffs across the country."

IF their unions cared more about policing than officers' $120K and related privileges, maybe we could afford to have enough cops on the streets.

bim1154		2012-05-12 05:13:16 PM

Now that would be some butthurt I'd pay to see.

Jan Brewer is about to sign a bill that makes it illegal to use an electronic device to post vulgar material with the intent to upset another person.

That being said, fark Jan Brewer and fark Joe Arpaio.

I hope that in 2013, STRYPERSWINE is arrested under that bill, and serves out his sentence in Joe's district.

Nightshade50		2012-05-12 05:20:37 PM

Well of course he was absent. It was for honoring the brave. Bravery doesn't constitute bullying, humiliation, and intimidation.

tacos4jesus		2012-05-12 05:21:26 PM

Did someone say "Hot Cops?"

I come from a family of cops and, to a man, they all consider him an embarrassment to the profession. Even my Republican cop brother hates Arpaio.

You sound like one of the Sexual Predators From EL Mirage?

\ Because there is something very wrong with that!

That flick was worth one viewing when it came out on VHS.

ecmoRandomNumbers		2012-05-12 05:33:30 PM

Wow. Subby really chummed the waters with this article. All the tards came out for this one.

Wodheila		2012-05-12 05:34:23 PM

"Joe Arpaio strangely absent."

Well, that's that! Joe's going to vote Republican! Seriously, why would anyone think 0bie would have under any circumstances? Not really 'strange' at all.

Forgot_my_password_again		2012-05-12 05:38:09 PM

republicans immediately proposed a law to ban cops.

wambu		2012-05-12 05:45:29 PM

They only have 34 cops in Camden, NJ?

remscheld		2012-05-12 05:46:09 PM

Hero tag was for the cops and not Obama I'm guessing.

AliceBToklasLives		2012-05-12 05:48:25 PM

wambu: They only have 34 cops in Camden, NJ?

I'm pretty sure they only have 34 civil servants in the whole damn city. And the city is thriving under limited government, no?

hdhale		2012-05-12 05:48:56 PM

Seriously, this was done merely to give Barry some camera time standing next to cops in an election year so he can appear tough on crime. Barry gets zero credit. The credit is for the cops. Enough said.

SwiftFox		2012-05-12 05:49:40 PM

Why hasn't Richard Jewell gotten his posthumous Medal of Freedom yet?

foxyshadis		2012-05-12 05:52:07 PM

Came for Seagal, leaving disappointed.

That's because it's a list about "Top Cops", not "Big Pigs", Subby.

FTA- afterwards Obama and Biden went golfing. Which one was the caddy?

bogatti		2012-05-12 05:59:01 PM

Couldn't have been to good if they didn't arrest Bama for defrauding America like he/it has

I came for Cop Rocks, and I mean that in more than one way.

I prefer power top cops.

Ha ha! "Cop Rock." I was eating Pop Rocks when I typed the previous post.

Actually I head Joe was supposed to be included... it was supposed to be the TOP 50, but then the teleprompter broke at line 34 and they called it good! You know, can't trust a lawyer to remember things like facts...

LowbrowDeluxe		2012-05-12 06:12:52 PM

All politics aside, I wish there were a lot more of those guys. When I was a child I wanted to be a police officer. By the time I was a teenager I'd grown disillusioned with the idea, but it wasn't till wasting 6 months in college on criminal justice and seeing the toxicity of the culture that I completely abandoned it.
