LAPD chief charlie beck = tom selleck (magnum)


above you can see an advertizement video for the LAPD. LA along with NYC is one of the toughest areas in the world for a cop, since theres lots of guns, people living tightly stacked on each other, creating lots of tension, thats whay you need tough cops to keep things in line. one of my mates from school is a cop today, but mostly busy with riot control, riding a patrol car etc. not so much gun crime here in the old world, but still lots of work to do, mostly with people who have migration background, trying to get their piece of the cake...
 who is this ? its tom selleck, famous actor who starred in his signature role as "magnum" in a famous TV series, but also played many other tough guys, cops, green berets or navy seals..
 right side thats present chief of police for the LAPD, name charlie beck. same man as "magnum" alias tom selleck. we can see mother time has left her traces on his face, but still same chin, same moustache and same person.
 this is the rule, not the exception. anywhere in the world, where modern cultures have developed. probably even the medicine-men of remote native tribes are masons. the whole world (and the floor of your local police department, mayor´s hall, hospital or courthouse) is covered in checkerboard.
 they say charlie beck recently had a "Minor cameo appearance" in some NYC crime series. "strangely" he performed like a true veteran in front of the camera...
 to keep gang violence at bay, the LAPD now decided to fight fire with fire..
 these ears are identical... left side tom selleck, right side charlie beck
i could post now the hilarious comments that lawyer rosenberg keeps saying evry time you leave the police station of "GTA vice city" after getting busted... but would probly be too funny and give you intestinal cramps..
ok i first thought had another alter for selleck, but was mistaken since the height dont match. but probly brothers..or related..
i wrote the story before how i was deported from LA, not directly from KSLC to EDDF... from the city i had seen in a billion movies (like evry other person owning a tv set), in real life i saw a street corner, 3 palm trees and a couple dozen people passing by.... the flight from SLC to LA was breathtaking, i talked to a woman solving a sodoku puzzle, saw the wonderful sand dunes of nevada and even vegas from afar...but vegas is silly its the landscape that matters...
 i could now start telling army tales. our drill sergeant was stabsunteroffizier sebastian hafner. he was the meanest motherf-cker on the entire base...in lebach,saar, germany the weather was always dizzy, cloudy and wet, the whole area is very simple with coalmining background.. and long tradition in military. when we were out in basic training (september to november, we picked the best part of the year), we came back sick evry weekend. it was a 2 month-shlep that felt like over half a year...
 sometimes during lectures we were so tired, we almost fell asleep. i can remember during a night march that was the final test before we got our first shoulderpieces, one guy was so tired, he fell asleep while standing, leaning on a tree, in full battle dress... such a short time, such manifold memories..
but back to tom selleck, aka magnum, and his fancy ray ban aviators, that make him look like a cop...
thso this was his signature role...
and then i thought he was identical to chuck norris, but norris far smaller (round 178cm) and more into the karate type of stuff...
we all have heard the many chuck norris jokes lately on the internet, i dont have to repeat any of those.

let me share some more stories, as i paste the matchups of selleck+norris, who are NOT IDENTICAL (norris around 178cm, while selleck 195cm)..but they might be brothers.

 i was dispatched as driver for a german paratrooper base. we were busy keeping the vehicles in prime shape, driving commandos around, or lieing around lazy in the meeting room, reading trivial literature and tabloids... one time, during a joint jumping exercize with german+american units, my sergeant wanted a ride extra fast to the canteen across a muddy field... i tried to go as pronto as i could. but he wanted more, and yelled "butzer, step on the damn gasssssss"... thats what i did... do i have to mention that like 10 seconds later our jeep jumped off the narrow pathway and found itself in a piece of impeccable farmland...of course i was to blame for the mishap... but well thats how it is when you´re a soldier LOL... this was Stuffz Brackmann, but we called him "Sackmann".. we always knew
how to come up with funny names for all our officers and NCO´s...
 
 i will never forget the day we got kicked out our beds after the first night in basic. it was the most shocking event in my entire life. we can see the world is always run by the same handful of people. but which of their acts will become your idol, hitler or gandhi, thats up to your personal choice and character... thats why you have such people in the army that still love the nazi structure, with a common goal to work and fight for, and drills in the courtyard.. authority figures leave a lot of traces in our lives, and sometimes scars as well..
my favourite tactical shooter for several years in a row was "SWAT 4", a game now almost 10 yrs old, but with great realism, where you dont just go online and start butchering orks, werewolves and dragons or work up your mana-power with magic spells, but actually have to use your head, check every corner, figure out what sort of bangs to use (flash, stinger, gas) before emptying out the entire house...room by room...you can even play it online with other ppl from aroud the world, with a squad commander who decides which loadout to carry... i played SWAT4 for many years, but only after playing online once with professionals i learned how to finish a mission properly with nonlethal weapons only. when you look for an even more realistic game, but with older graphics.. look for tom clancy´s "rainbow six" series...i played the "ravenshield" one of that series, and it has a totally diffrent feel to it, a lot faster, with less formidable graphics, but also challenging scenarios... first find your way into the game, then start working on your tactics, with the goal of losing no teammembers, but the hostages remain a priority, cause in rainbow six, these die faster than a fleshfly on a warm summer day..
 so back to "real" life... tom sellek = chuck norris = charlie beck, LAPD chief...
the ears are very close. they must be related somehow.





look what i found... my old mugshot from 2006...see pic below...
