it takes two for an overzealous cop to draw his gun?

WORD!

Perhaps the officer has a withered hand and needs help drawing his gun. Then it could take two!

I don't think I agree with you here, or at least with the tenor of your argument, mainly because I don't like references to so-called "unauthorized" events.

mazzie December 22 2009, 15:30:31 UTC

this is not my argument.

Oh, thank goodness. It's from a cop listserv. My reading comprehension skills are off today.

I am considering volunteering myself to be arrested first, as I did help with the organizing (by forwarding the tweet and URL to friends).

There were other cops present, watching and making sure things didn't get out of hand, but not trying to ruin everybody's fun. They were doing it right.

Using a gun to defend oneself from a snowball is beyond absurd. I don't even get that.
