Failing to inform dispatch is probably what did him in.  When folks don't bother with the fig leaves it leaves too much exposure.

I assume he didn't forget he was on camera when he did and said all this.  Did he think someone would get rid of the video for him?

I'm seeing a lot of cases lately where passionate self-righteousness overrides good sense.

Yeah,  that's literally down the road from my little village.

The current chief is the sanctuary city type.  This sort of action isn't really new.  Lorain is the town where all the shootings happen,  the businesses have fled and the Puerto Ricans, Mexicans and blacks do whatever they want.  Basically,  unless you want Puerto Rican food (which is awesome,  and the only reason I ever go there),  they could burn the whole town down and Lorain county would be much better off.

/racist,  and I don't give two shits about who calls me that.  Lorain is a violent little 3rd world shithole that isn't safe after dark.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

When Kovach realizes his daughter is in the backseat, he orders her to get in the backseat of his patrol car and pushes her inside as the girl screams that she is 18 and can't be detained for no reason.

"Why are you pushing me? Why are you doing this?" she is heard screaming.


Sooo..... Kidnapping is still a felony, right?  I mean, I'm glad he got fired and all, as that's at least a step in the right direction, but why isn't he being charged?  (Or is the firing step one, so that the Prosecutor can use that disciplinary action as evidence that he wasn't acting within his scope as a LEO?

I'm glad no one's hurt, but come on, forcing a screaming 18 YO girl in the back of a car is grounds for use of force.  He literally made her, under threat of force, get in his car and drove away with her screaming, while no crime had been committed.  Awesome friends there.

That town reminds me of what Aroura became the last time I visited

Oh, I thought you meant "our" Aurora, southeast of Denver.

Aurora, IL ??  Yeah, it's a 3rd world gang infested shithole also.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

That's kind of an insult to third world gang infested shitholes

What was that about a pearl handled revolver and someone from New Orleans again?

Oh, no! Not Aurora!

I'd always thought it was this magical place where.... *checks notes*.... Wayne and Garth live.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

It kinda was a solid middle class blue collar town...until back in the late 1980's it became a "sanctuary city" before sanctuary cities became cool ..

Yeah even mid 90's it wasn't bad in the good neighborhoods and then the mid 2000's I had my hand on the pistol I didn't want to get caught with but wouldn't go there without.
