Florida's got it right. Bravo for Sheriff Judd!!!
As reported earlier this week, some dirtbag who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop in Florida ended up 'executing' the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range.
Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed. A statewide manhunt ensued. The low-life was found hiding in a wooded area with his gun. SWAT team officers fired and hit the guy 68 times.
Now here's the kicker:
Naturally, the media asked why they shot him 68 times. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, told the Orlando Sentinel - 'That's all the bullets we had.'
(Talk about an all time classic answer!!!)
This is true according to snopes.com - however, they left one part out - the officers actually fired 110 rounds at him but only 68 hit him because he was dancing around so much and yes, the sheriff did say what he said.
