I’m a huge fan of the reality show, Cops, and rather than walk the streets of New York in the 95′F heat taking photos, I decided to stay indoors and watch some mindless television.

I’m sat here watching the 3:30pm episode on G4, and there’s an incident involving the Mexican/American border, a bridge, and an altercation between two rivals gangs. Anyway, some fighting and pistol whipping ensues, and some Mexican kids are arrested and placed in the back of various squad cars. One of the arresting officers approaches a witness and the conversation goes as follows:

Cop: “did you see what happened here?”

Witness: “yeah man, these guys over on the bridge came bustin’ through a line of girls that was with us, one pulled out a gun.”

Cop: “can you describe the individual with the gun?”

Witness: “yeah man, this guy was tall, real tall.”

Cop: “how tall would you say this individual was.”

Witness: “man he was like five eight, five nine.”

You couldn’t make this shit up if you tried.
