Texas Law Enforcement
A man seeking to join an East Texas Sheriff's Department is being interviewed.
The Deputy doing the interview says: "Your qualifications all look good,
but there is an attitude suitability test that you must take before you can be
accepted."
Then, sliding a service pistol across the desk, he says: "Take this pistol and
go out and shoot six illegal aliens, Six ACLU lawyers, six meth dealers, six Muslim extremists, and a rabbit."
"Why the rabbit?"
"So much for the attitude test," says the Sergeant. "When can you start?"
