Bad Cop

"Bad Cop" by Paul Bacon was pretty funny, if not a bit scary to think that there are other cops out there with the same attitude as him toward police work. A Manhattan resident, after 9/11 the liberal Bacon feels a need to help serve his fellow New Yorkers and with no other viable job prospects, joins the NYPD. He served for three years as a patrol cop, learning ways around the quota system (which technically doesn't exist), writing tickets and making arrests he didn't feel were warranted. He finally quit when he realized the female officer he lusted after had no interest in ever going out with him, and now teaches scuba diving in Hawaii. A much safer place for him to be than trying control crime on the streets of New York.
