He was in cuffs when we got there. The cops put him in our rig and removed the cuffs, saying he had been cooperative so far. The dude immediately reaches for one of the cops guns, trying to get it out of the holster. Needless to say, the cuffs went back on and we had a police escort. To their credit, the Tacoma cops used extreme self-control and didn't abuse him at all. They continue to amaze me.<br /><br />This is a really bad time to screwing around with cops, but like you said, 'stupid is as stupid does.'Prayingmedichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680037925025282596noreply@blogger.com
