14 year old cop

Wow...I found this article in on yahoo news hilarious...i shall give my reasons why after you read....enjoy

A 14-year-old boy accused of impersonating a police officer and going on patrol for five hours has pleaded not guilty.

The teenager appeared in a Chicago juvenile courtroom on Monday in a purple sweater with his hands cuffed behind his back. A judge ordered that he be held at the juvenile center because he could pose a danger to himself.

Savvy enough to sign out a police radio and ticket book, a 14-year-old spent hours driving around the city on traffic duty before returning to the station...

Rev. Roosevelt Watkins, a South Side Minister, said the arrest was shocking but not a surprise. Watkins and his wife took in the 14-year-old for 11 months after the boy’s mother kicked him out of the house for being defiant.

"He's crying out for someone to help him because he's technically homeless," Watkins.

Rev. Watkins said the teen was arrested in December, 2007 for impersonating a police officer and again last month at the Ford City shopping mall while wearing a police uniform.

On Sunday, Chicago Police said the boy came dressed up in a regulation uniform and worked five hours of a shift at the Grand Crossing District police station. It's unclear where he got the uniform.

"He has a fantasy, he's infatuated with becoming a police officer," Rev. Watkins said.

The boy reportedly was able to get a police radio, ticket book and ride with an officer for several hours before being questioned by a sergeant who realized his true identity. Because the boy had been in a "police explorer" program where he shadowed officers, he was able to follow procedures with out being noticed.

The boy now faces felony charges of impersonating a police officer.

OK peoples...lets try to name whats wrong with this.....they ARRESTED the kid..why?...because of THEIR stupidity...yup that's right..their departments stupidity...i mean HOW can a 14 year old kid get away with wearing a uniform without someone realizing that he isn't old enough?...whats bad about NOT realizing his age is the fact he got an assignment..and lets be honest..they say he wasn't holding a gun...bullshit...sorry if they gave him an assignment..he was holding a gun..or else his "partner" would ( o wait maybe he didn't after all) have realized this and asked the kid WHY he wasn't carrying his weapon..so IF he was indeed carrying a weapon..that IS scary..still the departments fault....if i was this kid's mom i would be irate at the police department for not checking up on this...what he if was assigned something serious and he got killed?...How could the department be so ignorant NOT to know their own officers or check up on new ones maybe coming in from another department...this is scary in more ways than one...it goes to show what people really can get away with and how "safe" we citizens are....was the kid right in doing what he did?..of course not...he needs his ass whipped by his momma and some sort of probation...should HE being getting all the blame though to make the police look better?...NOOO...its not fair and it just goes to show how dirty the systems are...

i did not vanish...

I have had no Internet access is the only explanation i can give. But now I'm back. You don't know what you miss until its gone really is the truth of things isn't it? I swear having no Internet has been like trying to get over an extreme drug addiction. Well I however am glad the the insanity from boredom is now subsiding a bit since i now have Internet again...pathetic i know.

Well...where to start. Christmas wasn't so much of a bust as i thought it would be. Breanna made out like a bandit thanks to family members. She got a little kitchen set and fake play food to go along with it. Mark and i got her a tea set. Both are such a hit and its amazing me that she is still playing with them a month later. She is getting so big on me. She is my little artist. She loves coloring and making hings out of play dough. Pictures of these creations will soon come i promise. She is still my little movie buff, which these days i want to try and get her out of so when i sit down and try to teach her things her attention isn't else where. Oh and her new favorite food is peanuts and or cashews. When she eats them she is in watchful eyes mind you. Her hyperactivity is through the roof..but hey its OK.

As for Mark and I..we are doing alright. Things are still crappy money wise and we still have no car. But somehow we are doing OK. I guess that is more than i can say for some people. We are just letting it go as it comes and deal to try and make things better instead of taking it out on us in an unneeded fight. We are also expecting our second baby. Yea i know i mentioned this last month and also though i miscarried. I find out how far along i am in due time. I have been to the doctor and they seem to think either i am only 6 weeks. Or i am in fact 11 weeks and last month's bleeding just happened as it sometimes does in some cases. They will do an ultrasound here soon to confirm...hopefully they do on Friday when i go to my OB appointment. I am so excited for another baby i could burst. I cant wait for Breanna to be a big sister. I know she will be a great help. Others say she will just be jealous but i honestly think she wont be. Breanna loves to be around other kids and around babies, not to mention she is good with them at her age. If anyone is going to be jealous its going to be Phoenix our cat...hardy har har har.

anyways i think that concludes my post for now...there has been alot to happen but i just cant think right now with my kid pulling at my arm and hearing Horton on TV speak in gibberish.
later folks.
