[quote]Steven Seagal has once again been hired to serve and protect, except it doesn't sound like there will be any reality show cameras following him around this time.
The "Above the Law" actor was sworn in this week as a deputy with the sheriff's office in Hudspeth County, Texas. The 59-year-old, who's no stranger to law enforcement and is also trained in Aikido, will help control the U.S.-Mexico border, according to the San Antonio Express.
The paper reports that Seagal reached out to the Hudspeth County Sheriff's Office himself about two months ago, seeking employment. Says Sheriff Arvin West, "Seagal is not in this for celebrity or publicity. He's like the rest of us that live down here; he has a sincere passion for his country and he wants to do more to help."
Although cameras captured Seagal's work as a reserve deputy with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office in Louisiana for A&E's "Steven Seagal: Lawman," it doesn't appear his full-time work with Hudspeth County's department will eventually serve as fodder for TV.
The San Antonio Express reports that a spokesman for the Hudspeth County Sheriff's Office says Seagal's employment with them isn't part of the A&E show. (Production was also halted on "Steven Seagal: Lawman" in 2010 when a former model alleged that Seagal used her as a "sex toy" after she was hired to be his assistant.)
"The television aspect of what we're doing here is the last priority," the spokesman said. "The man has a pure motive in doing this. He knows what we're up against and wants to help."
Seagal is scheduled to start his new gig early next year. While it's unknown if he'll be paid, the spokesman for the sheriff's department says deputies are typically paid about $15 an hour.[/quote]
Finally some positive news.
Don't these idiots know that he's a mexican drug lord?
I think all law enforcement should be done by celebrities
[QUOTE=Zeke129;32828726]I think all law enforcement should be done by celebrities[/QUOTE]Haha imagine Lindsay Lohan as a police officer.
He's just not going to gracefully fade into history, is he...
Holy shit that is badass.
Van Damme would be a decent DEA officer

She would constantly be on the look out for drunk drivers in the hope they have some booze in the car.
I still don't understand why he doesn't just retire from film work/publicity stunts, and goes back to running his own dojo. I mean, the past few years he's gotten kinda weird, and it just doesn't help that he can't exactly do his own stunts anymore, so he ends up looking like a Cloud Cuckoolander every time he shows up on TV.
Meanwhile, he was originally famous for being the [I]first non-Japanese aikido sensei to work in Japan.[/I] And he's very good at it to boot. So why doesn't he just retire to something that he's unquestionably good at?
well, he DID shoot down a helicopter with a pistol that one time

...Dear God, his movies are worse than I thought. Good thing my dad and I stopped after Fire Down Below.

those are just his newer straight to dvd then bargain bin movies. His older ones aren't much better I guess.
Next JCVD needs to enlist in the Foreign Legion.

then get arrested for drinking and driving in a stolen car
Badass motherfucker
Well, considering the border is Under Siege by immigrants, he's really the best choice.
Under Siege 2 was good, I mean, CASEY FUCKING RYBACK
I don't get why it is so hard to believe that he is border patrol. He is a police officer, and stays current on his training.
Both Ken Jeong (Señor Chang - Community, Mr. Chow - The Hangover), and his wife are Doctors. Ken Jeong went to Duke University, then completed his MD at the University of North Carolina.

Dear god, how many bullets does that pistol hold?
I hope they give him a tank and film him again.
What amazes me about him isn't that he does loads of things that require you to be physically fit, it's that he does all of them and he's still a chubby fucker.

She would be better off as a stripper that dressed like a cop.

Or maybe a cop that dressed as a prostitute dressed as a cop.
Think of all the people she'd bring in.

In movie logic, it's unlimited.
