Default Your turn to mock me!

Some 14 yo was able to pass himself off as the police. I do not work anywhere near that district:

I dont mock police officers mate, but 5 hours? Wow. I'd be interested to know why this kid did that.

You'd have thought that the empty holster would have been a giveaway.

Because he's a kid. I would be more interested in knowing how he did it (=why nobody became aware earlier).

Your new avatar - you are really becoming serious about these things now, eh?

I suppose it must be hard at times differentiating the true from the false



Good job he didn't try to impersonate a firefighter :p

In a way it is funny and in another, it is not. He could have potentially put the real police officers life in danger not to mention himself. The real officer would hope his partner would react as a trained officer should in all situations. I could see this 14 year old filling his pants if he was in a life or death situation. Kind of strange no one noticed after 5 hours on patrol. You would think the stations captain would know if a sub was coming in to one of his districts. :hmm:

BTW, I saw this kids photo, don't look like no 14 year old...yes, mistakes were made. Our problem is none of our stations are of the lockdown variety. Not as bad as some of the precient houses in NYC, but bad enough. The kid was an explorer kind of like an internship for high school students. Ideally it keeps them out of trouble (I said ideally) and grooms them for a career in LE. His learning curve was exceptionally high.
