      Googled it.

      I feel stupid for not knowing your location of employment now...

      I've always wondered though, why "the swamp"?

      Well, I guess it's not obvious.

        Welcome to the club, Irv. The stupid is endemic, I swear. When I was in high school (around 1986-ish) there was a restaurant in town that was the favourite of local RCMP officers. One day, a dude walked past 6 patrol cars in the parking lot, pointed a gun at the hostess and hollered 'give me all your money and noone gets hurt!'

        At least 8 uniformed Mounties stood up and looked around. Dude never made it out the door because he was under a pile of angry police officers.

          I know where you live now! :-)

          I read that on the local news station website. There HAD to be more than ONE patrol car in the parking lot. Stupid is as stupid does.

            Yep. Directly above the center of the earth. And it's mighty damn crowded, since everybody's here.

              Found the article. I guess the drugs caused the stupidity.

                  This one happened last summer at our credit union. The branch is located on the second floor of a state government building (one named for one of our few living ex-governors who wasn't indicted). Of course, there are state police all over. Guess what: You're right! Some fool robbed that credit union. Needless to say, he didn't get far.
                  Sounds like Illinois to me LOL

                    Just an informational aside:

                    Junior Explorers are high school aged boys and girls who are interested in a particular line of work. Police Explorer groups often do ride-a-longs, or other activities to show them what life as an officer is like. Occasionally, they will be used to suppliment officers for traffic control or parking lot control for large events.

                    I was in Veterinary Explorers for a bit, until I decided to go into computers.

                      This is all reminding me of an episode of World's Dumbest Criminals I saw recently... In which a thief decided to make himself some late-night entertainment (and profit) by ripping off a store that specialized in the sale of video surveillance cameras and other equipment. Suffice it to say, they had a few good, clear images of the crime in action... o_O

                        I saw that one. Nothing like World's Dumbest to make you feel better about yourself...at least it works for me!

                          Of course they did - why else would people refer to "recreational pharmaceuticals" as "dope"?
