And what's lulzier: 'he' sports the type of moustache that is only worn by obese men and child molesters. Pike's life changed irrevocably the day he sprayed those kids. You might say that this photo represents Pike's Peak: it's the most powerful he will ever feel from that moment forward. Let's hope he becomes an hero, and soon.  And let's hope that obesity-induced impotence has helped prevent his DNA from continuing to infect humanity.

To be fair, he's the rare authority figure who says that society has to address the root causes of crime. The UK was bringing him in to analyze issues related to the recent riots and he DID NOT get a warm reception from local law enforcement. But…but…he’s the SuperCop.
