cop followed me.

awesomez

If he followed brand new 370Z, there are other reasons he is doing it, not because of your car. Trust me, your car says there is no way I could have warrants and he knows it. My guess is you look like a criminal or something hahaha

Might also have just been appreciating it. Cops are people too, and many of them are just as enthusiastic about good rides as we are.

I think most pigs are "enthusiastic" about the revenue and tickets they generate from good rides.

I suppose they'd only be pigs to you if you aren't trying to look beyond the badge. Get to know some of them...they're not all Johnny B Bad, as some members here have even testified.

Then again, working with law enforcement...I might just be a little bit biased myself.

Beyond the badge is usually a jerk who was bullied in high school and is now trying to bully other citizens while hiding behind his badge and his authority. Beyond the badge is a revenue generating monkey for the city whose main concern is trying to squeeze every dime out of innocent motorists just because they can't abide by archaic, outdated, and often illogical speed limit (never mind that the last people to obey the speed limit are the pigs themselves, whether on or off duty). Beyond the badge is a man who has no qualms about executing an illegal search of a car and violating civil liberties, just in case he gets lucky and bolster his resume with a drug bust or two. Beyond the badge is a guy who can't resist being a jerk, and insulting or mocking people for no reason other than his own amusement.

Wow. Sounds like someone crossed the badge a time or two and didn't like what happened. I'm sure you were perfectly innocent.

Pharmacist

Nope, only brush with the law was a few speeding tickets handed out by obnoxious disrespectful cops. Yes, I was guilty on all of them. And yes, even when speeding, I was driving safely, and far less dangerous and far less reckless than most of your precious cops in their cruisers. On the other hand, I did seek police help 3 separate occations: was physically attacked twice, and was deliberately cut off and run off road by a road rager the 3rd occasion. In all 3 situations, I chose not to escalate the situation, but instead i did what a "civilized" person is taught to do, I backed down, and reported it to the police later. Guess what? On all 3 occasions, NOTHING happened! No one arrested, no one charged, absolutely nothing, heck no one even bothered to call me to follow up. I guess they were too busy giving out speeding tickets


So there you go. You were just proven wrong, now

WOW lets have a little fun here....

Im in the process of becoming a cop. I wasnt bullied in high school and Im sure as hell not looking to bully other citizens "hiding" behind a badge. Your stereotype is pathetic. If I was looking forward to bullying someone then trust me, I would have no problem doing it without a badge.

Once again your stereotype FAILS miserably just like you do. You're just being a whiny little bitch because you probably got a ticket for doing something wrong. I guess since Im going to be a cop Im a revenue generating monkey bla bla bla like you claim. Right, my reasoning is to get scum off the streets so people like YOU dont have to worry about getting mugged or killed everywhere they go. But I guess this will go in one ear and out the other since you feel all cops are out to get you. Just remember next time when you have a problem to deal with it yourself tough guy and dont call the cops to help out out with anything. Im sure you wont listen to that either because you're probably just a big mouth hiding behind a computer who has no guts to say that to an officers face.

wow...i agree not all cops are A$$holes some are really nice guys i met a lot. but there is a few who are just plain out pricks. And even if they are wrong wont admitted it. but lets remember those are few people.

Pharmacist

Read my post you dumb fuckin retarded baboon! I did get assaulted by "scum" but your precious cops didn't "get them off the streets" like you say you want to. And yes, I'm more than capable of conducting myself in a fight. The only reason I didn't choose to fight is that I wanted to act "civilized" and let the useless cops handle it. To bad they didn't do a damn thing. And actually, I lift weights, and train in brazilian jiujitsu. So I'm more than just a big mouth. Wanna get your worthless carcass over here to try me out?

Pheonix

Actually anyone here can check back on P2 where it all started...I made a comment in no way related to you....about officers appreciating cars as much as any other person...you responded with a direct quote on me about pigs and revenue...who started attacking whom first?

Pheonix

Nice pic Frost!

Pharmacist

Like I said, it was a general comment related to the topic at hand, about how speed traps are nothing more than revenue generating scams. Nothing at all directed towards you as a person. You're the one who decided to go off on a tangent about how police are all saints and the saviors of humanity and how terribly misguided I am to think otherwise.

Pushing_Tin

IBTL!!!

I actually agree with speed traps being nothing but revenue generating tools. I think most people feel that way. That said, I know the gamble, if I am speeding and I get caught then I take the ticket and pay it, it's the price of doing business.

On another note, but brother has been a police officer in St Louis for almost 8 years. During that time he has been shot at, bitten, spit on, choked, cut etc etc. He hates writing speeding tickets and rarely does. He was a big street biker for many years so he has let many people off when they were acting like idiots. He has also won several awards for major drug busts as well as saving the life of an old woman. He also boxes every year to raise money for charity. So DO NOT accuse all police officers of being power abusing ego-maniacs, as it is not true. Are there dirty cops? Sure, just like there are law breaking lawyers, judges, military personnel and so on. The bad decisions of a few shouldn't bring down the rest.

I would have sniffed the bait and clicked out of this thread if it werent for that comment.
