So, I wonder what this guys beef turns out to be?

By the looks of this I’d say that about 95% of the force is out there!

“Easiest way to justify overtime is to go to a scene and hang around”

In as much as I don’t think police dispatch works that way, but if it did you would think that at least one overtime hungry cop could come in and sit at a computer and rattle off a press release!!

There is a person at the department whose full time job is to handle press releases.  It’s a specific position, filled by someone qualified to write properly, clearly, objectively.

“where’s my wife and kid!?  I’m gonna kill them.”

First, I sincerely hope that the wife and kid are OK.

Secondly, here all this time I always thought that those types of thoughts were something that you keep to yourself and never verbalize them. Silly me!

Yes.
He shouldn’t expect everyone will find his plans appropriate or recognize whether the response is proportional without knowing what the wife and young child did to provoke him in the first place.  For instance, beer money spent on diapers?

Whenever you get really pissed at the fam...keep your shirt on.
