paperwork is a bitch!

Hillarious story one of my friends told me:

apparently there was a cop in st. louis that got into some trouble a while ago for trying to skip out on dreaded paperwork...but its so much bloodier than that. Let me explain--a family was driving down the road when a deer darted out in front of them and ran into their car, or vice versa. Needless to say, the deer did not fare as well as the car from the incident, and it lay dying on the roadside. The family, unaware of how to handle the situation, decided to call the local authorities to take clean up the mess. Upon arriving on the scene, the officer foundt the family to be unscathed but the deer was critically wounded in the middle of the road. The normal protocol for a situation as that would be to pull out your side arm and put a bullet in the deer's head, thereby ending its misery and inevetable death. However, this action comes with the overbearing requirement of paperwork because everytime your firearm is taken out and discharged you need to fill out a report. This cop, apparently, despised paperwork. He decided that instead of using his gun, he would find another method of finishing off the dear. After a brief absence, the police officer returned to the scene with an axe from the nearby fire department. The officer proceeded, right in front of the family and children, to attempt to chop off the dear's head. Apparently, this was not an easy task, and it took many many chops. Needless to say, there was much screaming and crying from the children, which im sure will require therapy in the future. Also, there was apparently copious amounts of blood.....everywhere. Those deer are real bleeders. Anyway, the cop ended up getting into a small amount of trouble because of his aversion to paperwork, and im sure ended up filling out more paperwork than he would have had if he had just done it right the first time.

funny, but disturbing.
