You have the right to remain stupid

We keep hearing that today’s teens are lazy, they don’t have any initiative, and all they do is play video games & text their friends. Maybe that’s true of many…but not one Buffalo teenager. You gotta admire his initiative. Unfortunately, it got him arrested.

That’s because he was impersonating a cop. But he was doing it in a damn clever way. The 16 year old was driving a Ford Crown Victoria that was a dead ringer for an unmarked police car. Plus, it was lit up like a Christmas tree….when he activated the emergency lights (all 30 of them!) and his illegal siren, he had no trouble getting drivers to pull over near Canal Fest in the City of Tonawanda.

Obviously the kid is not a cop. It gets better…he’s not even a licensed driver. He just has a learner’s permit. (and it may now be a while before he actually does get a license)

When he was busted by a real cop, siren boy told the officer he was a member of the Kenilworth Fire Department. That’s not true either….but he did recently file an application to join the force. Somehow we don’t think that’s gonna happen.
