Well, at least he admitted it I suppose. One more idiot American cop off the road.

Interesting YMB, but off topic of course.
Why is it off topic. Both are vile racists.
To return to the thread - there is always a time and a place for sledgehammer irony - I am a huge fan of it myself.

The trick is, knowing the right time and place to use it - this was obviously neither of those!
Two people both unsuited to their roles, gone.

Good.

The two items have nothing whatsoever in common.

By the way......perhaps Munroe Bergdorf, whoever she is, was dropped because she looks ridiculous ?
Maybe the officer would do differently another time, that is for him to know, and us to wonder, but it has happened, and he dealt with it in a manner he thought appropriate at the time, and that really is the end of it.

Garaman....according to the link, its the end of his career.
I wonder if the woman was still charged with drunk driving.
Only a guess, but I'd imagine she was.

I would have thought so. The Policeman's lack of judgement had little to do with her offence.

I couldn't have put it better myself!!!
Poor Wayne has been done for drink driving last night
can we say the Police in Manc is scouse white trash-ist ?

I cannot forget the imaaaage of Coleen using Maisie rubber gloves to pick the £26 000 engagement ring out of the bog whither she had thrown it - when she thought he didnt love her

I don't believe racism is the issue here.

I would suggest that the officer was not going to be dismissed for being a racist, but for an appalling absence of judgement when using inappropriate irony dealing with a terrified motorist.
So your saying Mickey is wrong then AH?
YMB - //So your saying Mickey is wrong then AH? //

Mikey has placed four posts, in addition to his OP - to which post are you referring when you enquire if I think he is wrong?
I must admit I am confused looking again as to his stance.

I assumed from the first post, and my assumption from the story too is that is was based on race.
//I would suggest that the officer was not going to be dismissed for being a racist, but for an appalling absence of judgement when using inappropriate irony dealing with a terrified motorist.//

With the benefit of hindsight, a film of the incident to play at leisure and examine in detail, and of course, not actually being involved at the time, we all have our views of the incident and how it was handled.
Too much common sense there Garaman!
