AND, what makes it funnier - he is a law enforcement officer.
Do you really think a police officer would do something this stupid? Your wrong anyways, he is a flight attendant, not a cop.

Jtraik,

I would not argue with Greatday. He is in full support of the photo radar scam.

I did not say he was a "cop". I said "law enforcement officer"

Frankly, I'm not surprised YOU, of all people, don't know the difference.

How is a flight attendant the same thing as a law enforcement officer? I am a security guard, and would not be considered a law enforcement officer, as I have no more powers than an ordinary citizen. Either does he. Here is the definition of a law enforcement officer. It is time for you to just admit you were wrong this time.

General

US Law Enforcement Officers officially include (but may not be limited to) the following:
(reference: Police and Detectives)
  1. Police officers
  2. Sheriffs and deputy sheriffs
  3. Constables and deputy constables
  4. Fish and game wardens
  5. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents
  6. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents
  7. U.S. marshals and deputy marshals
  8. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) agents
  9. Bureau of Diplomatic Security special agents
  10. U.S. Border Patrol agents
  11. Immigration inspectors
  12. Customs inspectors
  13. Federal Air Marshals
  14. U.S. Secret Service special agents and U.S. Secret Service uniformed officers
  15. District Attorney and Prosecuting Attorney investigators

Nothing to man up to. He's sending a message and everyone knows it.

You should look more into his background. There you will find YOUR answer.

From what I understand, he has stated he's a former Federal officer. Now they report he's a flight attendant. That's an interesting career move.

I mhave previously made this suggestion~ in areas such as phoenix area where people teach their children by example that breaking the laws are a good thing that instead of speed cameras that they post police snipers on all overhead areas and simply shoot every person that excedes that speed limit by 1 MPH. Within a three day period this would result in a 99% drop in not only speeding offences but in crime across the board!mission accomplished!

I saw that in the Arizona forum, but please tell me you are kidding? You would be killing yourself, since everyone, including you, goes 1 mph over the speed limit at least once every day.

Yes, but "is" and "was" are two different things. That was my point. If he still was a federal officer, he would not have done this. I would not doubt they would terminate him on the spot if he still was a federal officer.
