DC: Former “Lois & Clark” actor Dean Cain is officially hanging up his cape on Tuesday and putting on a badge.
Cain will swear in as a reserve officer with the St. Anthony Police Department in Idaho, because, as he said, “real heroes don’t wear capes. Real Superheroes wear uniforms and badges and stethoscopes! Real superheroes are members of our military, law enforcement, and first responders. Pretend Superheroes wear capes!”
After playing numerous roles as police officers and military service members, Cain spoke to The Daily Caller about his support for military and first responders and what inspired him to step across that blue line himself.
Cain shared some of his family history, saying that although he had never served in the military, he grew up in the culture and had great respect for those who did. He said, “My Grandfather was a Commander in the Navy. He was very proud of his service, and he lived his entire life as though he was still serving. My Uncle was a Lt. Colonel in the Air Force and one of their best fighter pilots. He flew F-15’s, and received the Risner Award from fighter weapons school in Nellis Air Force Base. Both men were extremely respectful and humble, but tough, hard-working, and dedicated.” more here
George Reeves, I dunno.
Christopher Reeve was a pretty far gone liberal, as I recall.
The guy from Superman Returns is a homo. The newest one is a Brit.
Mr. Cain is probably the only one who could truthfully utter Supes’s old motto, “Truth, justice and the American way.”
Good for Cain.
Being a Reserve/Auxiliary is a great experience. More citizens should try it. The Academy process alone is an education and an eye opener, especially for liberals.
It’s also very American. Most countries don’t offer any equivalent as this would weaken their Police State governance.
Dean Cain never really had much of a career past that gig. Like a lot, well most actors, they have to live in the real world and get real jobs.
I was a reserve deputy here in ABQ for 6 years+. It really helps out the regular deputies and is quite an adrenaline rush at times.
Be safe out there Dean !
