Speaking from a little experience, atleast in my area....no, we don't. Several of my friends hit the local donut shop because they say they have the best coffee.
I am used to the donut jokes though.

Helicopter Used for a Donut Run

Albuquerque (Reuters) - An Albuquerque policeman and his pilot face disciplinary measures after using a police helicopter this week to swoop in for a midnight snack of doughnuts, officials said on Friday.

The officer and the civilian pilot were on night patrol over the city in a Kiowa OH-58 helicopter when they landed in a vacant lot next to a Krispy Kreme doughnut store around 1 a.m. on Thursday morning.

"The contracted pilot and a police officer landed the copter early in the morning, ran in and grabbed a dozen, came back out and took off," Albuquerque Police Department spokesman Brian McCutcheon said.

"I don't know whose brain child it was, but it's quite an ugly child," he said.

McCutcheon said the event was being investigated as a possible misuse of city funds as well as for safety reasons, although he added there was no specific protocol for this case because it had ever happened before.

"We've been given no reasonable excuse as to why they would even think they could do this. But there could be some very serious ramifications," he said.

An eyewitness told the Albuquerque Journal that he saw the APD helicopter circle the Krispy Kreme and land in a nearby dirt field.

"I was angry, and I'm still kind of angry. That's my tax dollars, your tax dollars. You've got no business flying in to get doughnuts," said Keith Turner, who works nearby and was taking a smoke break when he saw the chopper swoop in,

The cost to the department of running a Kiowa, including fuel and maintenance, is $80 an hour, McCutcheon said.

A Krispy Kreme employee who asked not to be identified said he didn't see why people were making a big deal of the unusual doughnut run.

"Cops got to eat, too," he said.

I gotta be honest...

...I was a little disappointed when I opened this, because I was really hoping that this post was gonna be a pic of Dunkin Donuts, Honey Dew, or Krispy Kreme parking lot covered with smoke and donuts from a Lightning or other high HP vehicle.

I guess that just means someone else is gonna have to step up to the plate and swing...

We should turn this into some sort of contest over the long weekend...

Any takers?

Later...

GK

Cops don't like doughnuts. You just can't get good coffee unless it comes with fried bread.
