PBA Enters Ice T Vs. "Punk Bitch" Cop Fray

After rapper-actor Ice T was arrested on Tuesday—allegedly for driving with a suspended license, after being caught driving without a seat belt—he furiously Tweeted that the "punk bitch rookie cop named Fisher #10026 Made the arrest of his bullshit career today" and insisted "My license in not suspended. I don't and never had a NYC licence. I have a valid NJ licence. It was all bullshit...." He also told the Post, "I think [the cop] got his rocks off bringing me in the station in handcuffs... I stopped breaking the law a long time ago. I ain't trying to get in trouble."

Ice T and wife Coco were heading back to NJ after dropping their bulldog Spartacus at the vet for knee surgery. The Post reports, "The mirror of [Ice T's Cadillac sedan] brushed against a cop at a random checkpoint, authorities said. The officer motioned for the actor to pull over, but he kept on going, officials said. The cop ran up to the car and banged on its tinted window." Sources say the cop was professional and Ice T also didn't have valid insurance, in addition to not being belted in and having a suspended license.

Patrolmen's Benevolent Association head Patrick Lynch said yesterday, "He may play a police officer on TV, but his disdain for law enforcement is well documented in his old rap songs and continues with his verbal abuse of a police officer during yesterday’s arrest. Real police officers enforce real laws that exist to keep everyone safe from even a disrespectful former rap performer turned actor, whether he likes it or not." But Ice T's Law & Order: SVU partner Richard Belzer said, "I think they arrested him because they wanted to see Coco, and I don't blame them. He's never committed a crime to my knowledge and never will."

But good news: Spartacus is back with his parents and Coco is comforting him.

Not just boob job, but Coco's butt is all silicon. Yet still, I believe Ice has bigger boobs and a bigger ass )or is that that he's just a bigger asshole?).

Ice T has a valid driver's license in New Jersey.

So if I have a valid license from another state, like Alaska or Hawaii does that mean I can't drive in New York?

Just wondering. =^..^=

Oh and I had a police officer leave me in the middle of the street with a truck that would not start and a ticket for not having my lights on while crossing an intersection at night. (He stopped me after I turned them on btw.)

The ticket was one thing, but leaving me in the middle of the street????

Patrick Lynch: "Real police officers enforce real laws that exist to keep everyone safe..."

Does that include officers knocking people off bikes? Officers blocking bike lanes and then ticketing bikers when they ride out of them? Oh yea. Almost running over a biker, giving the guy a few tissues, and then driving off as if nothing happened.

Yea. Real police officers.

Yeah, I don't like my Dad either.

Those are some serious cocos.

You write a song called 'cop killer' and you've got to expect the occasional flak. I'm sure Ice wouldn't appreciate it if some flat foot penned a tune called 'Bit Part Angry Law and Order Thesipian Killer' ..

tpush67

er .. meant to write 'thespian' .. not sure what a thesipian is, but I think it has scales.
