I saw a t-shirt at the mall yesterday, and it's my new favorite.

So... I sent this along to some of my cop friends and immediately got a lot of e-mail sending me to the websites of various local PDs and Sheriffs with Cyber divisions. By now you think I'd know better than to bring up FBI around the locals

Same here in the DC area, local jurisdiction PDs/Sheriffs are the ones most active in this particular aspect of cyber crime than the Feebs.

OTOH, the email response you got reflects another common response from locals beyond the Feeb thing, blame the reporter and not the original 'criminal' - in this case the 'publisher' of the T-shirt. They're the ones that "got it wrong." Shocked

It was at University Town Center but it wasn't in a shop. A young woman was wearing it. I wanted to ask her where she bought it but she looked like the type who gets pestered by creepy old men, and I didn't want to add myself to the list. Rolling Eyes

Heh! Given the number of young people taking delight in trying - trying - to creep out their elders like you and me, the chance at a payback is not to be missed. Wink

Unless, of course, she looked like the type that would take off on you like Ruth Buzzi against Arte Johnson in those old Laugh-In sketches. Shocked

I wonder what Ruth kept in that purse... A brick, maybe? Wink

As a retired cop, I am no longer sworn to secrecy and I can reveal the true meaning of the acronym FBI......

F@#$#ing Bunch of Idiots

In my city, several years ago, a group of agents all headed to the bank on their payday lunch break to deposit their paychecks. Some bank robber decided to ply his trade in that particular bank at that particular time. The FBI's all had to be good witnesses, because none of them had thought it prudent to be armed......

Ironic as the FBI started up partly because of interstate bands of bank robbers (Dillinger etc.)

The FBI wasn't "FBI started up partly because of interstate bands of bank robbers (Dillinger etc.)."

The Justice Department's Bureau of Investigation was established in 1908.
It was renamed the United States Bureau of Investigation in 1932.
With the incorporation of Bureau of Prohibition in 1933 (repeal year!?!?!?)
it was renamed the Division of Investigation.
In 1935 it was again given an expanded responsiblity and renamed Federal Bureau of Investigation, which it remains today.

It should be noted that Dillinger was taken down by special agents of the the then Division of Investigation.

The one constant during this period was J. Edgar Hoover whose history with the FBI and its predecessors was:

1919 - Head, General Intelligence Division, Bureau of Investigation
1921 - Deputy Head, Bureau of Investigation
1924 - Acting Head, Bureau of Investigation
1924 - Director, Bureau of Investigation
1932 - Director, United States Bureau of Investigation
1933 - Director, Division of Investigation
1935 - Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation

While the FBI was there for the end of the 1930s outlaws/bank robbers era, it did not spring into life full-blown, but was, along with its director, the result of a long bureaucratic evolution.
