Instead, he comes out kicking and screaming and throwing people around like a friggin jackass. Bottom line, he certainly could not pass a job aptitude test for cops. They need to find something else for this idiot to do. They need to get this bully off the street. Give him a desk job or fire him, I don’t much care which.
