For the next act he should stab himself in the leg with a cheap switchblade and inadvertantly sever his femoral artery. If caught on video he could win an Oscar and a Darwin award for the same performance.deadcenternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-47951046539226105642010-05-14T07:42:12.407-04:002010-05-14T07:42:12.407-04:00Under the mythbusters model (busted, but how could...Under the mythbusters model (busted, but how could someone pull it off)...<br /><br />Needs a cheap alloy gun and a weak .22 load, fired through a pile of sterile, non-shredding, generic disposable material. No contact burn or GSR, not enough power to shatter bone (though you may still be unlucky enough to get a travelling projectile), any ejecta embedded in the wound would be clean enough to be found before causing issues, and the weapon and shield (hopefully both shields, since we're talking corrupt officers) could be discarded with little effort.<br /><br />That said, I'll rarely call someone a f'ing moron, but the thought came up.<br /><br />[all hypothesis are purely theoretical and do not reflect intention or acceptance of any real action by the commmenter]Dr. StrangeGunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03349076338197668654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-16118875782685009992010-05-13T19:04:26.727-04:002010-05-13T19:04:26.727-04:00This could have happened anywhere.

Cops aren't immune from stupidity any more than the rest of us.<br /><br />That said, however, is there a more corrupt, ineffectual, brutality-prone and just downright stupid PD than they have in Philly? Bombing and burning city blocks, beating the $hit out of law-abiders, they've been known for all that and a lot more for DECADES.<br /><br />I lived in the wilds of the crescent city and the NOLA PD gives them a darned good run for their take - er, money. But the Philly PD has it all over every other big city po-po posse hands down.2yellowdogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00187439022081364173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-51985761672826407762010-05-13T14:25:19.789-04:002010-05-13T14:25:19.789-04:00I'm surprised Mayor (spit) Landreau didn't...I'm surprised Mayor (spit) Landreau didn't name this dipwad to be the NOPD's Chief...Cybrluditehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02222195374935367060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-84336890845686078742010-05-13T12:53:36.875-04:002010-05-13T12:53:36.875-04:00Oh, where's Al Sharpton when we need him?
