    Fla. Cop Fired for Demanding Free Coffee From Starbucks

    Now here's a cop that lost his >80 thousand dollars job because he was not thinking. I know some cops, one my neighbor who just retired as chief of police, and they're good people. But leave it to one dumb#@$ to mess it all up. What a pitty...

    Saw this on my local news this morning... Ridiculous. What could have possessed this idiot to make him threaten the safety of the Starbucks employees over a cup of coffee?

      I see people all the time throw away 6 figure salaries because they don't think. They just have to surf porn at work, or other activities that get them fired. I never understood that but their stupidity is my bread and butter.

      I guess he saw too many Sopranos episodes to threaten them with response time.

        That cop was so stupid as evidenced by: The chief said after Lt. Garvin was confronted with the allegations, he demanded a polygraph test and failed.

            I remember having some coffee in So. Cal

            a long time ago and it was good. Better than some of the stuff they call coffer down here! But it was a jerk of a cop that really gives our coffee bad/good reputation.
