    This makes me angry

    http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/9822511/

    Being an officer isn't a joke. Too many of law-biding citizens are victimized. My dad was a cop when I was young and this makes me sick.

    Re: This makes me angry

    weird story

    were the civilians speeding? they said the trial lawyer was texting while driving, that's illegal here in CA, not sure about there

    there are a lot of good reasons to not piss off cops, one being if you do they can just follow you until you screw up (rolling stop, cell phone, 5 mph over speed limit, etc).

    9 out of 10 cops i've dealt with personally have been great

    Re: This makes me angry

    Yeah big cities more people.....harder to catch on who should or shouldn't be a cop. Usually it wrings out tho. Still always after the fact.

    Re: This makes me angry

    I wasn't fond of the police when I younger. For some reason, they were very aggressive back in the 1990s. I'm pretty sure I've gotten pulled over several times for "swerving" which means that they saw a kid at night and thought they'd take a chnace and see if he's drunk. The most irritatign aspect of that is I didn;t have my first drink until I 19. There I am getting a drunk test on a bridge overlooking the Garden State Parkwat thinking to myself that I've never even had a drink...EVER(!). Now I respect law enforcement a lot more but what bothers me now is the insular community they establish for themselves. Cops hang with cops. That's widely known and it's not good for society.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Re: This makes me angry

    Yeah I had problems as a teen as well. Granted in one instance I was completely shnookered. But I was walking, minding my own business and not making any kind of disturbance. The cop just drove behind me for a while when I was walking down the street. Dude was a huge ass and well known to terrorize teens. He was a young guy in his 20s who had gone to the same high school and been bullied non stop according to the stories.

    Yeah, that sucks. You get those types. In the suburbs it's a political job meaning you have to get strings pulled.
