...back when I was a cop, in ancient times, if ya let ya alligator mouth overload ya canary ass they would give you an unpleasant assignment. Footbeat in the stockyards on the midnight shift. No way to get in out of the weather or anything else. Call boxes 1 mile apart and ya had to call in from alternating boxes every hour.
...the job I hated most was guarding some arsehole in the hospital who had gotten himself injured by standing in front of a cop who was just at that exact moment shooting his six gun. They would be handcuffed to they bed and somebody would have to baby sit lest they should try to escape.
Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
