Shaq's police badges taken away

[quote]PHOENIX -- Shaquille O'Neal will lose his special deputy's badge in Maricopa County because of language he used in a rap video that mocks former teammate Kobe Bryant....
"I want his two badges back," Arpaio told The Associated Press on Tuesday. "Because if any one of my deputies did something like this, they're fired. I don't condone this type of racial conduct."
Arpaio, who describes himself as "America's Toughest Sheriff" and is best known for feeding jail inmates green bologna, clothing them in pink underwear, and making them work on chain gangs, said he didn't expect his actions would teach Shaq a lesson. But he hoped he learns that as a role model who wants to someday be a full-time sheriff, he needs to know his words matter.[/quote]

Re: Shaq's police badges taken away
:roll: So policemen arent allowed to rap? What Shaq did was all in fun, and not meant to diss anyone. It was to entertain. What's wrong with that?

Re: Shaq's police badges taken away
Lmao, so the cops can get away with shooting an unarmed dude but if he makes a freestyle he gets thrown off the force. The police chief must be a Kobe fan. :D

Actually police men aren't allowed to have fun,that's why most spend their free time at the bars drinking or harrassing innocent people for the sake of it.

Obviously it was meant to diss someone....it's stupid that they are taking his badge though

Re: Shaq's police badges taken away
I'm guessing the racial line about a "white guy being more niggga than me" is what did it.

If a regular policeman made any type of racial remark, jokingly or not, there would be repercussions. Why should Shaq get a double standard just because he is Shaq? It makes them look bad as a whole

No cop-bashing, just commenting on the ridiculousness of taking away his badge for a mere joke. I'd say more but I don't wanna turn this thread into a Sean Bell debate.

If you don't think cops make insensitive jokes to each other in their downtime, you're delusional. They're people, not robots.

Hello dude, cops say what they want in their downtime obviously. Its a little different when you are rapping it and it is filmed on TV and shown on national television

You said that if any cop made any type of racial joke there'd be repercussions. Going by what you said, shouldnt matter if they're on Tv or not.

So you're telling me that he doesnt like Kobe, Ewing and Kareem and he took those shots at them to intentionally hurt their feelings. You're sorely mistaken if that's what you think.

Because he was supposedly reaching for a weapon by turning away from the police and trying to walk away.:rolleyes:
Pigs make me sick,I'm bout to get my Uncle Murda on :roll: :roll: :roll:
Also it seems that black people are zombies in the eyes of the police,1 bullet doesn't do the trick they need upwards of 40.:confusedshrug:

Are you so dim, you do not undestand the context in what I said? If any cop made a racial remark that made it to media, then there are going to be consequences. No shyt people are human beings and say stuff intheir down time. But if something makes it to the media like that, then it is a reflection of their station as a whole, and they can't act like they condone that type of behavior

I don’t know about biggest joke in AZ Napolitano is no saint nether is Phil Gordon:D But I will agree that Sheriff Joe is one hell of a grand stander when it comes to the media.:cheers:
One thing I was wondering was Shaq’s a volunteer Tempe Police officer so did the 2 Tempe Police Officers that appeared to stereotype 2 black guys by asking them to rap in order to get out of a ticket a few months back get suspended or fired? I can’t seem to remember.
