IS THAT A WEAPON IN YOUR POCKET?

I had to laugh at this story! 

A Strippergram student accused of carrying offensive weapons has gone on trial today.

Stuart Kennedy, 24, who works part-time as a strippergram, was arrested after performing at a bar in Aberdeen dressed as a police officer. Mr Kennedy, a genetics student, denies three charges of having an offensive weapon in a public place. It is alleged he had two batons and a spray with him on March 17 this year at Aberdeen's Bon Accord Street.

 

On what serious basis has this man been arrested? Surely to goodness Aberdeen police have BETTER things to be doing than pursuing this pointless prosecution?

This story is crying out for a smutty comment from me, but I am not going to oblige. I think impersonating a police officer is a disgraceful thing to do and when it comes to sentencing I hope it's a good long stiff one .

My missus just got stopped for the fourth time in two months whilst leaving work, by the same pair who stopped her last month and admitted they were simply bored and laughed in her face about it. She pointed out that there were youths in the carpark outside her store causing a disturbance but the two PC PCs explained that they werent causing any harm. Its all a question of priorities - harassing innocent motorists is much more fun than actually doing their jobs, therefore they harass innocent motorists.

and we thought being arrested for naming a Teddy bear Mohammed was ridiculous.

It's not this student guy's truncheon they should be worried about:
