There's no story in that scenario :roll:
"I once attended a Pink Floyd concert" counts as a story, doesn't it?

You're right. He's taken drugs before, he must be lying now.

To be fair, he was on drugs at a 1994 Pink Floyd concert.

That has to be a lot like buying a high definition TV and then using it to watch VHS recordings of mid-90's Nick at Nite.

OFFICER-INVOLVED SHOOTING -- YOU CAN WIN WITH THE MEDIA

The shooting death of a black teenager by a white police officer on August 9th in Ferguson, Missouri and the events that followed were tragic. In addition to the Ferguson case study, this fast-paced class is jam-packed with the essential strategies and tactics, skills and techniques that will help you WIN WITH THE MEDIA! It is practical training, not theoretical: Take what you learn and put it to work for you on the street right away! The training is also highly entertaining: numerous video clips illustrate key points, and there is NO PowerPoint! You will learn a lot, and you’ll have fun doing it! In addition to the detailed case study of Ferguson (including numerous practical tips for handling the media in an officer-involved shooting) topics will include:

• Meet the 900-Pound Gorilla
• DWI and the Media
• Feeding the Animals
• “No comment” is a comment
• Don’t Get Stuck on Stupid!
• Managing Media Assault and Battery
• Managing the Media When Things Get Ugly (think Ferguson)
• Managing the Media in a Crisis (including lessons learned from the Newtown, CT school shooting.)

No PowerPoint slides, though. So no reading.

Unless you're hung like a horse I'd say it's a pretty safe assumption.

Its one of those rare cases where he actually got fired and charged. He must have screwed up the investigation. A local cop basically said as much regarding the officer in the Oscar Grant case. If you play ball with your union rep these things tend to go away. Additionally, if the charges don't stick almost any cop can get reinstated with back pay and damages, regardless of how egregious their behavior. Felony convictions or voluntary withdrawal are about the only things that end their careers.

I'm sure the guy is relieved that this cop in particular has terrible marksmanship. :thumbsup:

I wonder how much of this had to do with the fact taht it was in public and multiple witnesses could have corroborated with the video.
