The Fraternal Order of Police will stage an elaborate, tax-funded military funeral procession (with gun carriage & riderless horse) attended by 3,000 on-duty cops (on special-duty pay) from 3 states away, for a drunken pig who barreled through a school zone at 70 miles-per-hour on a sunshiny day (on the last morning of Denny's grand slam blueberry pancake breakfast promotion) only to wrap his new cruiser around an oak tree "in the line of duty." [The United Mine Workers' Union, whose members die horrific deaths above & below ground, stage no such funerals. Dead coal miners are laid out & planted with minimal fanfare.]
