Bellevue police chief Pillo: "in NO WAY does this reflect who we are as an organization"
Sorry, Chief, but yes. Yes it does reflect on who you are as an organization. On duty or off, your officers are representatives of your police force and your city. If the tables were turned and a Seattle resident (cop or not) was caught littering by your officers I suspect they would not give the litterer a pass.
Chief Pillo, do you want to make this better? You report to the media that your officers have been disciplined, and that across the force your officers will receive training to ensure this or another incident doesn't happen again.
@9: Facebook's spam thing is almost entirely automated, so if a bunch of people try to bury info they don't like by reporting it as spam, it can take a bunch of time and complaining to fix it.
If those Bellevue cops were "clearly intoxicated" I wonder if anyone attempted to find out how they were getting back home. Were they driving or taking public transport? Inquiring minds want to know!
@7 Corporate Media in general (at the risk of sounding redundant) will air no free speech if it carries risk or danger for it would endanger profit.
We'd hear a lot more about the recklessness of the Bellevue Police Department if it wasn't for the fact that the Eastside lacks the African American and Latino population to have their "fun" with.
Jesus having a wife in other than a beardy way should be no big deal, if all those people mumbling "...born of the Virgin Mary and became man" in the pews on Sunday actually believe what they're saying.
If the whole business of suffering as a man to erase sin is to mean anything, "being a man" includes all of it—human desires and affections and the stinky, leaky, traitorous human body.
Charlie Hebdo was at the forefront of the fight for gay and gender-role equality way back when. I remember a cover -- or was it a poster or ad in a sister publication? -- from the '70s or '80s with a gay couple at home, one sitting in an armchair reading Charlie Hebdo and the other standing in front of the sink in an apron, doing the dishes. The caption read, "Homosexuals read Charlie Hebdo too!" and the guy doing the dishes was retorting, "More like one in two!" Well, I guess you had to see it...
The article didn't say, but I'm guessing from my totally expert internet reading that he contracted Septicemic Plague, which again, totally expertly, leads me to believe the mouse may have bit him while he wrangled the cat.
Non unanimous jury convictions, full service gas stations, and now Black Death? Oregon, wtf?
Not just "off-duty Bellevue police officers"...LITTERING off-duty Bellevue police officers. Fuckers.
I feel sooo... IN-AR-IN-AR-IN-AR-TIC-U-LATE!

Comedy Central and pretty much all of our media only embrace free speech when it carries no risk or danger. They are cowards with no conviction.
Seriously, try it.
Hope no one gets hurt.
Tres drole.

I was just kidding, I doubt seriously they care enough to do it anyway, regardless of legal hoops.

Thank you as always, Mr Doom.
