Actor R. Lee Ermey is living the Marine Corps' mantra: "A Few Good Men." The former Marine drill instructor and host of The History Channel's "Mail Call" was in Missoula on Monday to film a segment for his upcoming series "Locked and Loaded" when he said he found some cash. A lot of cash. Ermey, best known for playing the drill instructor in Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket," said he was driving with crew member Harlan Glenn to a museum when he spotted a black object on the road. Ermey stopped the car and picked up the bag, which contained cash and checks that looked like they were meant for deposit in a Native American fund. "Just on one deposit slip alone was, like, $3,700, and another one for $2,800," Glenn said. "There was easily $8,000 in cash and the rest in checks." Ermey told the Missoulian newspaper he thought: "Some poor guy right now is probably getting fired, probably having the worst day of his life. So what we did was we went right down to the Wells Fargo bank and deposited it for him." Don Luke, a business expert at the Wells Fargo branch, said he was surprised to see "The Gunny" stroll in. "We weren't sure if it wasn't 'Candid Camera,"' Luke said. Source The man is all class.

You GO,Gunny! I can imagine the bank teller's reaction,though! "I don't care if you work for Wells Fargo,ManniHanni,or CitiBank! To me,you are all EQUALLY worthless!"

Good thing that he wasn't in the UK. Those idiots have come up with a "theft by finding" law. Find money or the like, just pick it up and you are guilty of theft by finding. |

http://www.dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/92661/Student-arrested-for-being-honest STUDENT ARRESTED...FOR BEING HONEST Paul Leicester, 18, played the Good Samaritan when he discovered the handset lying in the street. He rang the last number dialled and told a friend of the owner he would leave the phone at a nearby police station. But officers arrested him for “theft by finding”, held him for four hours and took a DNA sample. Yesterday Paul said: “I thought I was doing the right thing and had it thrown back in my face. I wouldn’t go to the police in future. All I was doing was the honest thing. It was a shocking experience.” The A-level student at Southport College, Merseyside, had been out celebrating his 18th birthday last month when he found the phone. Paul added: “Being arrested isn’t a good way to celebrate your birthday. What are you supposed to do when you find a phone?” And the police wonder why the general public doesn't want to help them. Get arrested if you do, is the answer. Or become an immediate suspect. Gets costly when that happens. |
