    the POS gangbanger in question (a real winner):

    the icing on the cake? according to all the news sources, this is the OFFICER’S clothing company… :rolleyes: <— big time

    I’m not sure I’d even want to defend that officer’s actions… :rolleyes:

    easy to forget in the heat of the moment – video cameras are everywhere… plus, if you’re going to be supplementing your income by selling gangster culture attire, you might want to try just a little harder to keep a low profile… :thunbsdown::chair::banghead::rolleyes:

    Wow – that’s like a priest running an adult website.

    I bet the media is having a field day with this – although I haven’t seen one yet I’m sure there will be some ridicules news feature about it.

    The job is tough enough without the help of stupidity. And we all pay for it.

    Really? WTF was he thinking? Are these officers just so used to the sound of helicopters above that they forget that the world is watching them? Not that this should be done at anytime, but the public is ALWAYS watching. From cell phones, to cameras to the press- we are always “on”. Like Steve said, this is a hard enough job without these guys making it worse.

    Now this officer has a clothing line? The link is down (go figure, he probably pulled the website upon legal advice…)

    It was basically a very ghetto orientated site that sold replica “LA County Jail” and gang specific clothing. So you could buy a “187” tee shirt and matching County jail pants.

    REALLY in poor taste for a LE.

    WOW… Dis-gus-ting!! Makes me sad for those officers working in that area because they will bear the brunt of the bad press, comments, and public distain while numbnutts gets admin leave with pay to ride out the IA and sh!tstorm.
