@Vyan1 @rbw424 the cops are going to be rough on anyone smarting off,fact.


So the Cops are going to Rough Up anyone "Smarting Off" to them? Really?

Apparently not this guy.



Joseph Houseman, a 63-year-old white man who, back in May, stood with a rifle on a street in Kalamazoo, Michigan. When police arrived, he refused to identify himself, grabbed his crotch, flipped them the bird and cursed. They talked him down in an encounter that lasted 40 minutes. Houseman was not arrested. The next day, he got his gun back.

He also, while carrying a loaded weapon while intoxicated, had no ID on him at the time.
