Bad boys, Bad boys, what you gonna do?


Vatos malos, Vatos malos, Que van a hacer?

Item number 16 on the City of Laredo's upcoming city council meeting sure has a familiar ring to it. Read for yourself and see if you don't agree:

Agenda item 16.  2011-R-11 Authorizing the City Manager to enter into and execute a Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Laredo and Al Roker Productions for the purposes of recording footage of the activities of the Laredo Police Department for the purposes of a ten (10) episode television series to air on a nationally syndicated television network.

Now, if that doesn't sound like Fox's Cops show, I don't know what does. They'll probably cover a lot of DWI arrests, vandalism, sweeps of San Bernando, some child abandonment cases....oh wait, sorry, I must be thinking of Pro8news. Who knows maybe they'll respond to a call involving one of Laredo's homeless and discover another Golden Voiced panhandler.

  1. Doesn't look like there is anything COPS like in the Al Roker Productions page. http://www.roker.com/main/shows.htm

    Let us know when you know or I guess I could just watch the city council meeting.

  2. How is this going to help Laredo's image? Catching Laredo drunks, family squabbles, or may a cocaine or money siezure. Wow, maybe even a shot or two of cops responding to the river and bridge because of automatic gun fire in Nuevo Laredo.

    Seems like a disconnect somewhere. But, maybe it's just me.

  3. Don't forget throwing the homeless's belongings in the back of a garbage truck. I know, some of you might applaud that. A que los homeless.
