Brickbat: Long Arm of the Law

Lake County, Florida, sheriff's deputy Matthew Donnelly has been charged with sexual battery. After a night of partying a man flagged down Donnelly because his girlfriend had passed out. Donnelly allegedly put the boyfriend in his patrol car and groped the woman and made inappropriate remarks to her. Donnelly's dashboard camera was turned off for 22 minutes when the assault is supposed to have taken place. But officials say that a sexual examination supported the woman's claims, and they found her DNA on the steering wheel and gear-shift knob of Donnelly's car as well as on his flashlight.

The lesson is if you need help, call a friend, call an ambulance, call anyone but a cop.

I had a cop drive me to the gas station and back when I ran out of gas once, back in college. He didn't rape me as far as I can recall, but he did make me sit in the back, and he didn't seem very happy about his car smelling like gas.

That's because another cop's dog was going to signal on the smell for shake.

Your false consciousness repulses me

Groupie? Disciple.

By the way, have you ever wondered what the Late* P Brooks' plan is for you?

* But He will rise!

[Wasteland Wanderer]

Not a very good disciple, apparently.

[Snark Plissken]

I blame myself for her relapse.

[Wasteland Wanderer]

You're a bad influence; a threading enabler, even.

[Snark Plissken]

Threadsplaining.

Cis-threading-normative fascist!

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

Silly Roger, AnonBot can't read.

Sometimes it almost seems like predatory criminal types and sadists seek out positions that give them power over their fellow human beings.

[Pavlov's Cat]

Sometimes? Almost? Seems like? Fellow?

(Looks like I gotta get a dictionary.)

Goodbye my friend, you've messed up again
You're going to prison, you're off to the pen
You've gotten off easy so many times
But I guess no one told you how to get a life

The judge wasn't lenient like he was before
You got three to five and a kick out the door
The public defender really did try
Too little, too late, you didn't get a life

Ho ho, not this time my friend
You'll be in lockdown by ten
I'm afraid you can't talk your way out of this one, son
Now four walls are your 24-hour-a-day, constant companions.

Hey, in Walla
I'll see you in Walla Walla
Slap on the wrist? Well, not this time
Hey, in Walla
I'll see you in Walla Walla
Folsom prison is the destination
Hey, in Walla
I'll see you in Walla Walla
Slap on the wrist? Well, not this time
In the scheme of life, we're all just brothers
Rehabilitate with all the others
Well, I'll see ya
