It depends on how recently an episode of MASH was run.
Sometimes if a war movie is on and a lead character screams "MEDIC" that can have an effect too, but it really comes down to the movie. |

Is this guy the worst cop ever? If he wanted to arrest the driver so bad, why didn't he take him down at the hospital? Its not like the guy went missing. Nothing about this story makes sense.
A few months ago when a similar situation took place with an NFL player, the player was cuffed at the entrance to the hospital. I don't get it.

Not that I condone the cops actions, but as far as the husband showing up at the jail, while it sounds good, it doesnt really work that way. All the crap they filed on him would take at least a day to get into the system to even show a warrant for him whenhe showed up, IF thats how they handled matters there. Arresting him at the hospital was in rather poor taste tho, since they could have called him and told him to present himself at the station for arrest.

Typical for cops.........Get all mad when a citizen tries to break traffic laws as much as they themselves do.
"Only officers know how to drive fast".......yeah right. |

I think if he literally blew the light he would have gotten electrocuted and fallen.

Not saying the cops didn't go overboard on either case but common...what are 98%+ cases of people not stopping for a cop??? Drugs, DUI, fleeing from a crime etc. The cop is not gonna stop and say, "oh sure, go on in the hospital I believe you".
HAve some sense, get on the phone and call 911 and ask for an escort if you think the amber lamps cant' get to you quicker than you can get to them. And the football player should have stopped immediately and told the cop the situation and asked for an escort if he hadn't already called for one. As soon as you don't stop for a cop, he's going to assume you're up to some criminal activity, and I would assume the same thing if I was a cop. They have a dangerous job and most cops that get killed are from routine traffic stops when someone pulls a gun on them. You don't think they're on edge after you run from them??? Don't get me wrong, some cops go way overboard and those are the ones you hear about on the news, not the other 98% that do a great job for next to nothing pay. When my dad had his heart attack my mother took him to the ER. NOT speeding or running red lights, and when he got worse she called the amberlamps to come meet them part way which they did (hospital is 20 mi away here). She didnt get arrested cause she didn't break the law or run from a cop, go figure. |
