It's not the first time...

It only took a week or two before that one lady kidnapped her ex's new gf and tried to drive from last ke Florida to Texas for some reason.

Even then, thieves have been doing it as cops for over a decade, exactly like in this article.

I just saw a different article where a guy got arrested for dressing up as ICE and demanding he be let I to a police station so he could salute all the deputies. Or that guy who tried to "citizen arrest" his dead then cut his head off for resisting and claimed self defense.

I'll take a couple stick up thieves wearing a vest over the nutjobs who honestly believe they're authorized to execute anyone who doesn't do what they say.

Bunch of fucking Eric Cartmans runner ng around

A little proofreading would strengthen your message.

It's 2025, if people can't parse an autocorrect error by now, that's on them. Our brains literally fix them as we're reading most of the time.

I don't put anywhere near as much thought into my comments or "message" as people always seem to think though.
