no lol. They were so far from my car but i was making the turn and they just walked in front of me despite the fact i was turning slowly. So I had to stop since I was surprised they just didnt even look at me and kept crossing. And than they stopped to let me go, so I went and than the cop pulled me over. |

So you yielded to traffic....and they yielded to you...and you continued the flow of traffic so they ticketed you?

i've said it before and i'll say it again
cops are nothing but worthless bureaucratic violent thugs. they don't realize that they are violating the constitution EVERY ING DAY (which they swear to uphold :rolleyes: ) |

| As much as I like the idea of a police force...I kind of have to agree. The only time youre happy with police are when they ARENT heads to you. They DONT punish you. Somehow that doesnt seem to be the spirit of a community cohesion force... |

next time you guys get pulled over
throw your hand out the window . . place your finger on his upper lip . . say shhhhhhh and cose your eyes . . . then start to stroke his mustache with your index finger for like 2 seconds . . then floor it.
works every time. just hope you don't get a gay cop. |

Of course we're upset when they punish us, no one wants to be in trouble with the law.
But then again, since, as I see it, most of us are not criminals, just private citizens living lives more or less inside the laws, how come the police to strap such hefty fines on MINOR mistakes? We don't know the laws back to front, and most of our infractions are so minor, they are litterally unnoticable.
:wtf:
Cops, get a life and look for somebody worth while to bust. Let us know if we're doing somethign wrong, and give us the chance to ammend it, cos probably?? we didn't know it was wrong in the first place! :( |

ive gotten pulled over for doing 110 in a 55 and they laughed and gave me a warning. Bikes arent a danger. ive been pulled over 5 times on my bike so far and THIS is my first ticket.
Police ARENT punishers, and its something we have forgotten. In the last 5 years the PDs have finally re-instituted community police who know the neighborhoods. In one case there were a lot of car break-ins and thefts. The whole group knew who it was and went to the cop. He talked to to the kid and mom and it stopped. No arrests, no nothing.
Everyone knew that cops dont necessarily punish you for crime. The American legal system USED to be based on circumstance, spirit, and intent. Now its just action. Its like German law "you jay walked?"
"yes but to put out a burning nun"
"50 dollars for jay walking. Thanks for putting out the nun"
but the new community PO has been working, and I hope to see a switch from the whole Broken Windows policies to something a little more...mature.
edit**
point: at least talk to people. they held us there for 30 minutes without saying and then we are asked to sign tickets. Citizens need to be told WHY the state is ing them. WE ARE THE STATE. They dont want to argue so they dont talk. Rome took over the world because they had a senate that did nothing but discuss things. |

NO !!
Just last week, this bus full of nuns was driving like 38 in a 35 and I had this weed I just bought and wanted to smoke and I was like WTF!?!?!
So I bust out the pit maneuver on the bus and it flies off the road and explodes fantastically. So I floor it and then what the do you know...a COP is there pullin me over.
He arrests my ass, I'm like..."SORRY i didn't read the RCW PIGGY"
long story short, the law is way over-stepping their bounds. |
