Police Act Tact
.
Way out in New Westminster, several years
ago,
Two policemen working nightshift, time
was passing slow.
Constable Crosato, the senior man on site,
Scotty Stewart was the junior one, on
that fateful night.
.
They stopped their cars on twelfth, and
got out on the street,
Both stood there for a minute, to ease
their tired feet.
Just a few more moments, would be allowed
to pass,
Scotty with a mighty fart, released his
pent up gas.
.
Denny looked at Scotty, and wrinkled up
his nose,
"That’s disgusting", Denny giggled, "enough
to curl your toes".
Right there it should have ended, as they
went on to their call,
Except for one lone woman, who made them
take a fall.
.
She wrote a letter to the Chief, complaining
of the pair,
Of how one of these officers, polluted
up the air.
The pair came into work one night, and
were called in by the boss,
To answer this complaint he got, too serious
to toss.
.
Scotty was advised right then, by the
man right near the top,
Denny got a reprimand, because he did
not make him stop.
This must be a first in history, in police
complaining art,
Of a cop receiving discipline, for a random
public fart.
.
Where oh where will we be now, with the
brand new police act,
Will all complaints be acted on, or will
there be some tact.
Police complaints come in all the time,
spanning all the nations,
But this brings all new meaning to, Internal
Investigations.
