PD's are filthy, cannabilistic, plague-ridden, yard-and-pasture destroying vermin whose only useful purpose is target practice.

GC,
Like Richard, I can say the same about "RATS"!  Believe it or not the dump sites in the Chicago city limits,one especially on the SW side had rats as big as some cats and the junk yard dogs only attacked them in packs......  We of course went there for target practice with our 22's at night with flashlights to get a bead on their eyes which shined when light hit them......Scopes at that time were expense and we always said they were for pussies....
