Cop Punished With Therapy For Being a Snoop Dogg Fan

AUSTIN,Texas –

It seemed like a harmless fan photo. Deputy Spears (who was later playfully coined “Deputy Dogg” on Instagram by Snoop), was working security at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, when lo and behold his favorite rapper of all time showed up at a booth that was on his foot patrol route.

“I mean, me and my boys done grew up listening to Gin and Juice. That’s was our Friday night song! I been following Snoop ever since Dre brought him in for the Deep Cover single. Dope man, we knew he was going places. So it was all natural that I’m gonna take a second and snap a pic to show my ol’ homies from the 361 (an area code for Corpus Christi, Texas).”

What Spears didn’t take into consideration is that Snoop Dogg is a black man who was convicted for marijuana possession in the past. This didn’t sit well with his superiors. Spears was re-assigned and ordered to immediately begin attending therapy and counseling sessions, or else he would lose his job.

Another Texas deputy who wished to remain anonymous explained why the punishment is right and just:

“It just doesn’t look good. Now listen, I been in LE (law enforcement) for 25 years in which time I worked many events like this and have had my photo taken with country singer Steve Earl who is a known heroin abuser and convict, Merle Haggard who’s spent time in San Quentin, and even Willie Nelson, a very vocal and well known marijuana abuser who’s been arrested for the drug. No one cares about these white boys and their arrests and convictions. I got these pictures framed on my desk at the station! But now you got this black guy, a rapper at that, with all that bling and bravado and it’s like he’s shoving it all in your face…like he’s saying ‘look at me…yeah I smoke weed, I got in trouble for it.’ That just don’t look good. Take a look at that photo and you can see – that just don’t look right. That Deputy needs therapy for sure and I’m glad he’s being ordered to get it.”

It is unclear at this time what exactly the therapy, or counseling, will entail or what specific issues it will cover. Though some insiders within the Texas law enforcement community believe the treatments will aim to unearth the reasons why a white law enforcement male is attracted to the musical stylings of African American dominated hip hop music, as opposed to the more natural tendency for Caucasian Texan taste, country-western music.
