new signage on Bakersfield cop cars has local knickers in a twist...

from TV station KGET: bq. It all surrounds a patrol car, which carried a message some found offensive. The car decal said, "We'll Kick Your Ass". bq. It is the kind of stunt that could have quickly been put to rest. bq. Instead it has prompted a flood of editorial letters to the Bakersfield Californian with mixed reviews on what the sticker said. bq. There is still plenty of controversy over how the sheriff handled it. bq. It is not the act that gets you in trouble, but whether or not it is a cover-up. bq. There may or may not be a cover-up in this case, but there are a lot of different versions of what really went down, who gave the order, and why it happened in the first place. bq. On September 26, 2003 KGET 17 received an email containing a picture of a Kern County Sheriff's patrol car with an official looking sticker on the side reading... "We'll Kick Your Ass". Hotbed of PC people in Bakersfield... It's a joke people. Posted by DaveH at December 12, 2003 11:26 AM
