Fake cop pulls over driver, calls real police for backup. Hilarity ensues.

[Wonk]

The man wearing a badge and carrying a gun motioned for the driver to pull over. Then, Donald Sebastian did what every good cop does: He called for backup.

And that's what got him arrested.

Sebastian told investigators, "It made me feel special to put on the marshal's uniform, even though I couldn't function as one." His home was littered with marshal service business cards, shirts, jackets, leather gloves and other gear that said he was a fed. He told authorities his ruse was his "way of giving back to the community."

"I would suggest a different type of volunteerism," said Strongsville Police Chief Charles Goss. "Most people impersonate an officer to carry out some other crime. But in this case, he called us."

1. what's the difference?

what's the difference between a fake cop and a real cop when both of them pretend that they make us safe?

2. Yup, Cops don't make you safe...

that is why each of us has to be responsible for our own protection. I use a firearm to do that.
