Or in the case of this thread the Gunslinger. Now that one is tempting in wild west sort of way.
For new cops it would be chevron, as they go up ranks lampshade then walrus
I had an acquaintance call the police because a few of the local teenagers were being a nuisance and harassing traffic on the local street. He got the reply " Its just teenagers being teenagers...". To which he suggested that "teenagers being teenagers" used to get a telling off by "Cops being Cops" and they would pull their heads in and become people being society. Now the "Cops being Cops doesn't happen so the teenagers often push the boundary's and become "Dicks being Vandals" and onwards towards "crims being crims" and now the cops have a bigger mess to deal with.....The officer at the end of the phone went quiet and said he would send someone when he got the chance....
I dont know if anyone actually came but thats beside the point. Point is, if kids are taught proper boundary's when they start pushing, they dont push so far past the boundarys that we have to move the boundarys to get them back.
What they were doing specifically (which beggars belief in all honesty as I saw them myself)
They would hide behind a parked car along our street just after a speed bump. When a car passed the speed bump and stated to accelerate, one of them would jump out in front of the car and slam their hands down on the bonnet giving the drivers a fright. Any normal person can see how this behaviour could end in tears VERY quickly, but these kids thought they were invincible and were laughing about it.
I know this because when they did it to me I let loose a chain of loud (and very descriptive) expletives questioning their heritage and suggesting they were not very bright.....Hence why we thought the police may be able to do something to prevent someone A) getting hurt or B) being arrested for a serious assault on a teenager (Minor?) as one or two of the drivers looked very much like they were going to "have a word" themselves....
One of the reasons we no have a dash cam in all our cars....
I just wished I still had the falcon with the two tone maseratti air horns I got from my old man. That would have scared the bejesus out of him. Dont have the falcon anymore, but the air horns are round here somewhere...just have to figure out where they will fit in the nissan March........It will just about go backwards when the horn is pushed I suspect.
Dad told me the story of when he got them. They had just bought a brand new Ford Falcon so around the early 80s, and he owned a car parts store. He fitted them one weekend and forgot to tell mum. Next day or so she is trundling down Market st (narrow one way with a 10km limit) in down town Blenheim following a cyclist doing about 5km. She thinks she will give him a quick "peep" so he knows she is there and so he doesnt just ride out in front of her. BLAAAAAARRRRRTTTT!!!!!!. She got as big as a fright as the cyclist did. Just about wet the seat of a brand new car. Boy did she have words with dad when she got home........Not impressed. But the horns stayed on that car til he sold it nearly a decade later.
When a Policeman doing his job gets shot at multiple times as occurred in South Auckland today then I say it is time to arm the thin blue line and the fucktard that does that sort of shit deserves to have a some well placed lead returned in his direction.
