Deputy fired for waving weapons around imitating Training Day scene

A Florida sheriff's deputy was sacked after officials say he waved his firearm and stun gun in the air while quoting lines from Denzel Washington's character in Training Day, a movie about a corrupt law enforcement officer.
Lake County Deputy Dean Zipes was fired on April 21 after an internal investigation over the incident that occurred around 4am on February 16, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Zipes was caught on police dash camera footage waving the weapons around.
Authorities say Zipes rubbed his pistol and Taser together in the direction of a convenience store in front of a police trainee.
An internal affairs review says the action replicates a scene from the 2001 movie starring Washington as corrupt narcotics officer, Alonzo.
Zipes told investigators that he was just trying to be funny and he was also on edge because of an armed robbery his sector responded to that night, according to the Sentinel.
'I am not a rogue, reckless, dangerous, insane guy that slipped through the cracks at the hiring process and somehow got a gun and a badge,' he told investigators.
The scene that Zipes allegedly reenacted was the one in which Washington confronted a rape suspect in the movie.
Washington's character first pulled out a knife and held it to the suspect's bloody face in the movie before pulling out his two pistols and pointing them in the man's face.
Although it's unclear what Zipes said during the incident that got him fired, the actual profanity-laced Washington scene goes a little something like this:
'You told me to s**k your d**k b***h. Ain't that what you told me?' Washington says to the suspect before pulling out the weapons and rubbing them together.
This isn't the first incident that Zipes has been involved in, according to the Sentinel.
The internal affairs review says Zipes twice pulled his firearm in an office setting and voiced racial slurs.
He also reportedly made a motion to draw his gun at a pizza delivery boy and became upset after not receiving free Starbucks coffee.
In response to the incidents, Zipes told investigators that he's 'just a guy going through some stuff'.
