Texas Cop Suspended Indefinitely for Outburst Caught on Tape
Suspension is equivalent to a termination
A Hurst Police officer has been suspended indefinitely after an investigation determined that the officer violated department rules in an outburst caught on tape.
The internal affairs investigation concluded that the officer, Disraeli Arnold, "was disrespectful to a citizen, used indecent, profane, and harsh language in the performance of his official duties, and conducted himself in a manner which brought discredit to himself and the Hurst Police Department," according to a release by the City of Hurst.

See, even cops can't get away with bad behavior in Texas. Texas!
Makes sense though... Texas is all about liberty. No income tax, right to work, and lots of guns.
