Deputies reprimanded in Deltona gator incident -- OrlandoSentinel.com: "Three Volusia County deputies have been reprimanded for their involvement in an incident involving an alligator in the parking lot of a Deltona apartment complex.
Deputy Keith Baughman, 39, was bitten on the left leg May 15 after he placed a towel over the 8-foot alligator's head, used a curtain rod to position it over the reptile's eyes and then jumped on its back."

When I was a kid you were taught that the policeman was your friend. I can't speak to the quality of law enforcement in those days but the last 20 some years it seems like the profession attracts some real dickweeds with no sense at all and completely worthless in modeling behavior that the public should pattern themselves after.
Well, a certain number of immature guys are drawn to the profession. I know 'cause I was one of 'em. If you last, the job forces a certain maturity on you no matter how hard you fight it.
Speaking of "fight", my brother-in-law was on ANIMAL PLANET a few years back when someone videotaped him leaping out of his pick-up to help a park ranger subdue a 'gator.
