Two police officers in Rhode Island are being investigated for using their magical policeman powers to skip to the front of the PlayStation 3 launch line at the Sony Store in Providence Place Mall. Apparently one Warwick officer and one Providence officer were among a group of seven folks ushered into the front of the queue on launch day by a couple of mall security guards, both of which are now jobless.
Both officers are expected to receive disciplinary action. The Providence cop is quoted as saying he didn't do anything wrong. Tell that to the first couple of people who went home empty handed, asshole.
This marks the beginning of a disturbing trend. First police bust in line, next thing you know they'll be using their sirens as a way to avoid having to sit in traffic or wait at stop signs. Oh, wait.
