Book excerpt: The stories you've all been waiting for and then some...By far, when cops end up in conversations with people that know they're a cop, they will inevitably be asked one of two main questions: "What's the scariest situation you've ever been in?", and "What's the funniest or craziest thing you've ever seen?"A couple of years ago I had asked for cops to submit the stories you just can't make up and we put out the first edition of those edited collection of stories. A few months ago, I asked for a fresh round and the latest stories in this revised and expanded version of the book do not disappoint.The book isn't meant to be perfect in grammar, punctuation or even super long. Not every story is something that people might find funny and that's ok. What it can be, however, is a quick read to lighten the mood and get a glimpse of what cops see and deal with regularly that we can all look back and laugh at and truly understand why Hollywood has nothing on real police work because you truly just can't make this stuff up.So, grab your favorite beverage and thumb through the book. Share your favorite stories with your friends and if you'd like to help keep content like I make continue to grow, tell others about the book and send them to my site to get it.Thank you everyone who supports me and all of my endeavors to humanize the badge and fight for the truth when it comes to how law enforcement is perceived out there. Your support means the world to me.-Mike the Cop

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cops tend to think and do things differently from the average, everyday citizen. And their sense-of-humor tends to be different as well. Things that may shock the average person are oftentimes considered hilarious by cops. While many agree that it's just one way of coping with what cops are subjected too on a daily basis, it also makes for some downright funny stories, not to mention cherished memories. The author has taken some of these stories, from two departments located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and compiled them, for posterity, into Behind the Badge.
