This is really ironic. Please follow along...Right. They believe they are. That's what being an "Only One" means.
1) Remember Sean Bell? Shot dead in NYC on the eve of his wedding?
2) Well, in the aftermath, NYPD imposed a new mandatory Breathalyzer Policy.
3) The incredibly selfish Cop Union, the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, objected.
4) They took it to court.
Statement
5) They lost.
4th amendment
Opinion
Go down to "A. The District Court Properly Applied the Special Needs Doctrine"
That's where it gets interesting.
So, the union believes they ought to be exempt from any and all breathalyser tests. They are the ONLY ONES, right?
So a loss is actually astonishing. Because they're not just "Only Ones." They're "Furious Mike Only Ones."
And they're not just "Furious Mike Only Ones." They're "Liberty-Lynchin'/ Stephen Abootman/ Lift-a-finger and we'll kill you Only Ones."
Broom stick, anyone?
Interesting how there's no mention of their loss at their official web site.
ReplyDeletePoor fellas. Not Only enough this time, apparently. Truly this must come as quite a shock.
ReplyDeleteAs Lt. Frank Drebin put it, on wistfully contemplating his retirement from Police Squad:
"Just think. The next time I shoot someone, I could go to jail."
Life's a bitch sometimes, innit?
