History

Los Angeles City Department of Traffic officer John K. Dancler was fired in 2009 after appearing in a pornographic video in 2008. He had appealed the firing. Fellow officer Vaughn Dorsey, who appeared in the video, is still employed by the Department of Transportation. Department of Transportation should not be confused with the LAPD as it is a separate department and is non-sworn.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    You treat world history as a mathematician does mathematics, in which nothing but laws and formulas exist, no reality, no good and evil, no time, no yesterday, no tomorrow, nothing but an eternal, shallow, mathematical present.
    Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)

    When the history of this period is written, [William Jennings] Bryan will stand out as one of the most remarkable men of his generation and one of the biggest political men of our country.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    There is a history in all men’s lives,
    Figuring the natures of the times deceased,
    The which observed, a man may prophesy,
    With a near aim, of the main chance of things
    As yet not come to life.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
