Oh I totally agree. Part of the problem with charging a cop in the district that he works in is that it’s his job to work with the prosecutors. The two groups are hard-wired to defend one another. So the prosecutor (intentionally or not) filed charges that weren’t applicable to the case and the judge couldn’t convict…

As soon as I figure out how to get the dog to survive that flight, will do. ;)
*Chicagoan that's been living in dry -20 windchill for two weeks* AHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
Ugggh I support your salute but can we find someone other than Chuck Norris to do it?
What about kicking it old school: Women's Studies Minor?
A couple of times I've caught pictures of them and been like "Oh hey I've never seen that photo of Stevie Nicks/Carly Simon/whoever before." Sometimes their music comes off similarly to me.
No one can beat that time Robert Redford kissed my mom. Sorry.
My fifth favorite celebrity story involves Kevin Bacon. I literally smacked into him walking down the street one day staring at my phone and he was nice and helped me not fall down and laughed when I apologized and that's when I realized who this kind baseball-hat-wearing stranger was and just stared as he walked…
