Q on 2nd

 

Off 2nd, a transient flagged me down to tell me that he was the Q in QANON and was connected to a star in his body by three spots in his body.  He demanded to speak with a supervisor when I did not believe him.

With the Latest Hire

 

With the latest hire of twenty officers, the pond now ranks 48th of the countries top 50 cities for officers per capita. We now have 1.2 officers per 1000 people. The national average is 2.4.

 

 

Better Than Back Filling

 

For the first time I can remember, the department will pay officer overtime for attending In-Service on their day off. It is easier than trying to back-fill positions.

 

 

Academy Waits

 

 

Today, at roll call, one of the 20 new officers hired last week said he won’t be able to attend the state academy until March.

One of the hires from June said he will finally go to the academy in two weeks.

A Simple Question, A Straight Answer

 

 

On Elementary, in the Alphabet Streets, I'm in my prowler blocking a crime scene. 

Hipster Barbie walks up to my window and says, "Um , ah, like can you, like, ah, tell me what, ah, happened?"

Yes, a man was stabbed multiple times with a machete. 

She freezes, stares, her mouth gapes,  and finally stutters out, "Ah, what?"

A man was stabbed multiple times. Tourniquets were applied. He's in surgery now. He's expected to survive.

She steps back and drifts away. 

Her blue haired boyfriend asks, "What did he say?"

She wishes she would have never asked in the first place. 

 

 

 

 

Four in Four

 

On the corner of 4th and Misery, I’m on my fourth opioid overdose in as many months. Five empty nasal applications of Narcan are on the ground, but the patient’s lips are still turning blue. He’s unresponsive, so I give a sixth.

After 24mls, an eye peeks open, but then he descends back into the nod.

As the ambulance places the man on the gurney, one of the security guards said when he called dispatch, and asked for me, since he knows I carry Narcan and will use it.
