It's an ASP baton

The things you learn at a Citizens' Police Academy! 

I promised I wouldn't talk about work on this blog (much) but this is too good not to share. I was at the Citizens' Police Academy in Hogansville and the topic was deadly force. The instructor, a cop I know pretty well (thank God) kept talking about his baton, but he called it an ASP baton. Don't know what that stands for, but apparently it's the brand name.

But it sounded like something else! I passed a note to a friend of mine in the class, saying "It sounds like he's saying 'ass baton.' That can't be right!" 

Funny thing was, once the note was shared several others in the class had thought the same thing!!
