How is a Police Search a Romantic Proposal?

Wednesday, August 19, 2009

Meet Senator Ben Cardin's nephew Jon Cardin, a delegate from Maryland. Jon is apparently a hopeless romantic and decided to propose to his girlfriend with a police search (complete with helicopter) of their boat perfomed by those hopeless Cupids, the City of Baltimore Police
Department. Wait... what? I know I've been accused of not being a "typical girl" but do typical girls like that? I thought the jumbotron proposal was the height of obnoxious, but I guess I was wrong. The Baltimore Sun reports the following...
"Officers boarded the boat, owned by a friend of Del. Jon S. Cardin, on Aug. 7 in the Inner Harbor. As the helicopter Foxtrot hovered overhead, adding to the sense of tension, one report says officers pretended to search the vessel and even had the woman thinking she was about to be handcuffed before the delegate got on one knee and proposed."

Clearly, the BPD had the time to help out Jon as Baltimore has a super low crime rate. I mean, ONLY five people were murdered over Memorial Day Weekend. Yes, all of the cops were ON DUTY.

As she said "Yes", the next Romeo is going to have to top good ole Jon. I think the next step is obvious. CLEARLY the way to a "typical girl's" heart is through a full body cavity search performed by Baltimores finest! Ok, they didn't do that, but they did spend some serious tax payer change.
