Cops Play Wii During Undercover Drug Raid
An anonymous reader writes "Guns drawn, cops busted down the door of a suspected south Florida drug dealer, then proceeded to kick some ass on Wii bowling. A security cam captured some playing video games while others searched for drugs and weapons. Clearly they just misunderstood when they were told to search the house for Weed."
Hey, don't hate the player, hate the game.
Modern copyright is theft of culture from everyone and it retards the progress of the useful arts and sciences.
Might have been able to pass it off as Physical training on the job.
On an interesting question, how many police officers play Grand Theft Auto?
Hey, they could always be playing the 'police missions'!
This is a substitute for a clever sig that fits within the maximum number of characters.
Burma Shave!
Looks like the dealer... .... [series of long dramatic pauses] .... ...had more than weed up his sleeve.
(Yeeeeeahhhhhh!!)
Misdewiinor? If the cops open fire, I sure hope they do.
Sorry grammar nazis, *PUNISH the criminals*.
I don't know, I think a public bitch slap from a judge would be pretty cool.
Posts not to be taken literally. Almost everything is sarcasm.
I'm not saying the officers shouldn't be reprimanded to acting unprofessionally but this should in no way affect a judge's decision as how to punch the criminals.
This is akin to arresting you and taking your car out for a joyride spin. Sure you can argue they waste gas for the car, but they wasted electricity for their entertainment.
Besides, this is unlawful search. I would like to think that unless they had a warrant for this specific task, they could NOT search digital devices. Seeing how it was a drug deal, they could only search physical items (like maybe take apart the wii at the very worst case, but they could NOT digitally open it, or go through all their movies/home movies and watch them all)
Oh.. IANAL, but I use morality to make my decisions.

But we can be treated equal.
Maybe they were on strike.
You know it makes sense, a little reminder from jointm1k.

I hate to quote an overused quote, but who watches the watchmen?
Lots of people - it was a box office hit.
