Gotta love that Carter. Nine feet tall and bad. It’s just so groovy when Chick gets down.
Of course, Carter is a total failure at interviewing witnesses, being more interested in converted them than in solving crimes, and his delay in answering the 10-99 probably gets his fellow officer shot or at least crippled by the delay in assisting at the scene - but he does chalk up another potential convert to Jesus.
I think it’s primary message is that we need a police force made up of little old ladies.
Don’t be messin’ wit Granny, yo.
Why does Chick think all black men are named “Leroy”?
And is it just me, or did it seem like Grandma would have been okay with Leroy killing the cop if he hadn’t been Christian?
Methinks you’ve been whooshed. Ever heard of satire?
Anybody else get a chuckle when they came to the panel where the deacon’s down on his knees and says, “I love all you guys!”? Me thinks Jack’s discovered circle jerk porn.
Notice also, that Jack seems to be saying that you can do drugs and go to Heaven.
I started reading the one about evolution.
Shocking.
If only. That site is totally sincere. Chick is 100 percent authentic, Grade A, All American Nutbag.
Which makes it all the more hysterical!
Just a few liitle changes needed to the ending there. Fourth last panel onwards.
“Look at that!.. I can’t believe it.”
“(Gasp) He’s letting his fellow officer bleed to death on the street while he holds a prayer meeting!”
“Now we’re all brother’s in Christ. Don’t worry about any charges, I’ll say you were possessed by demons or something. Anyway, Clancy’s in hell now, being a cop isn’t enough to get you to heaven!”
“Man, I feel so clean!”
"Yeah, Just be careful and not step in the pool of blood there. "
“Praise the Lord!.. Junior got Christian immunity from prosecution!”
"You know… I was thinking of getting a new partner. But now… I WON’T HAVE TO. YOU’RE GONNA BE SUSPENDED ONCE I PUT IN MY REPORT!"
God is My Patrol Partner
Chick is still alive and drawing? I thought he was long gone by now.
Oh, well. I needed the laugh. I can’t seem to hit the Jack Chick Parody site any more.
Hey! I like Aaron McGruder. I prefer the “soft edges” to the extreme veiny close-ups of screaming Jehovah’s witnesses.
I was wondering the same thing.
Like LilyoftheValley, I loved this:

Based on the tight black shirt over the rips, I think the Deacon’s a big gym-hittin’ 'mo.
Chick seems to be making the point that being a drug addict doesn’t automatically send you to Hell. So why does the Deacon assume the four dead ones were damned? For all he knows all four (along with the witness) might have been good practicing Christians who only did crack on weekdays.
As do I. Make a point of never missing Boondocks, as a matter of fact. That said, though, I had gotten kind of used to Chick’s overblown visuals, and seeing something that is supposed to be him (I’m not sure that it is) is kinda weird.
So, are we in for a sequeal or two? The deacon’s partner didn’t find Jesus. Will he? Will the deacon tell him? Will partner reject him and then die when his car collides with a train? So many possibilities!
Aw, heck, I saw the way partner was looking at deacon in that last panel. They’re gonna run off to Massachusettes and get married! Don’t they look cute together? 
Jack T. has been sharing work with a collaborating artist or two for years, but recent material seems to point to having farmed out the art full-time to a new team. with some of the new artists havign distinct styles quite different, both in visuals and writing-style, from Chick’s own (e.g. see also the “Little Suzy” series).
Yeah, I noticed that too. I think if the cop had been a Muslim or a Jew, granny would have been cool with her grandson carving him up!
I just love how everyone is stupid in these things–‘What? Jesus is our savior? Why didn’t anyone tell me?’ Like Left Behind only worse. ‘What? I have to TAKE JESUS INTO MY HEART to be a Christian? Why didn’t anyone tell me?’ Such woeful ignorance of majority culture makes the kittens cry (or masturbate; I’m a little unclear on the details).
That, for me, defines the passive-aggressive nature of these things. I get the definite impression that there’s a limited presumption of duty on the part of the witnesser, whose responsibility lies only in sharing the “good news.” If you haven’t heard about Jesus, then your ignorance isn’t your fault. Once the light has been shined upon you, the ignorant sinner, then no further work must be done; it’s incumbent upon you to accept the wisdom and grace and so on, because now that you’ve heard it your only choices are between heaven and hell. There’s very much an attitude of standing back with arms crossed: “So that’s the Truth. Now whatcha gonna do about it?”
Of course, in the real world, everybody has heard about this stuff, but writing comics where the ignorant sinner sticks his fingers in his ears and says, “Would you shut up about this stuff already? How many times are you gonna bombard me with this,” etc., etc., would be combative and repetitive and not very effective. So they have to write stories from a fantasy-world perspective in which nobody has ever heard about Jesus except all the Good Saved Christians, so the message comes as a world-changing revelation.
The idea, I think, is to get through that weary defensiveness by presenting a scenario that reminds non-Christians that according to the God Rules, once you’ve heard about Jesus, you’re on the hook, without getting into all that real-world confrontation, but to me the effect is to show us a cast of characters drawn from the same pool of people you see in those infomercials who are incomprehensibly unable to flip a pancake without splattering the cupboards with Krusteaz goop preparatory to pouring hot bacon grease down their shorts. Doesn’t say a lot that this kind of evangelist is hawking Jesus with pretty much the same technique Igia uses to push their Miracle Pancake Turner, but there it is.
