Actually, you're right in a way. Attitude and being mouthy are not criminal offenses. Should cops have to endure a tounge lashing because they are stopping someone that broke the law? Llet's say you were a kid and your dad told you that you couldn't do something and you did. When you did and he confronted you about it you gave him an attitude and told him he was a dick for telling you not to do something...now compare that to when the same situation happened and you told your dad you were sorry and you'd try not to do it again...which one do you think would have better results on how much punishment is affected on you? I don't want to get into the argument about why cops do certain things, if you're not a cop you'll never understand. That's ok. I don't know your job and I might not understand why you do the things you do.
Me, I have a set standard in mind and attitude plays very little into my decisions. But if you irritate me enough, you can certainly talk your way into something I was just going to give you a warning for. Oue warnings are recorded and can be accessed to determine whether or not a citation is going to be issued. I don't care who you are, or how hot you are, you're going to get a ticket if you deserve it. Everyone is a little different, some let attitude play more into it, some don't. Most states have a statute that includes a "privelege" doctrine that allows cops to break the laws in certain situations. Hopefully this post will get closed soon...it never ends well when people talk about cops. Too much emotion. Quote:

I must say that you are wrong in saying there is a "class system" put in place. There is no system. It depends on the infraction and the attitude. I wrote an asian female last week who ran a stop sign right next to her work. She claimed she stopped. I watched her and since I was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER, I had a great view. But, she made no attempt to stop other than to slow to make the 90 degree turn. She lied saying she stopped...then said she never drove that way...then said she was only coming this way to get to mass...then said she was speeding to get to mass since she was late... Don't lie to me. I hate liars. She got a ticket. I'll write her another one too. She didn't understand what a warning was for. Another elderly female ran through a complete red light which had been red for quite a while....at least 7 seconds. She almost T-boned a Ford Ranger in front of me who had to slam on the brakes to not get hit. She said she wasn't paying attention and never even saw a light. Yet, after talking a bit more, found that she regularly drives this stretch of road. Not paying attention could have killed that guy in front of me. She got a ticket. Now...do those two people fall into a certain class? Would they be gang bangers? Nope. Would they be peckerhead drug dealers? Nope. But, they got tickets. So....that "type" of person talk just doesn't matter. Quote:

I could never be a cop. The amount of crap they take some days just to make a living is enough for me to be respectful to them every time.

I have no problem with police and have always been treated fairly by them...except the one night they pulled me over because "it's the time of night where most people are driving drunk"...don't get me started on that one. But anyway, the only thing that pisses me off is when u see a cop flying down the road 10+ over on non-highway roads with no lights on, not chasing anyone..just going fast. I HATE that, if you have cause to speed, put on your lights so you're not a hazard yourself.
Maybe the police on here could give me a possible explanation why I see cops doing this all the time. Is there ever a reason to speed that excessively without your lights on? And I thought it was illegal for them to speed without their lights on?? |

My favorite is the race card. On several occasions I stop someone just to tell them "Hey, just wanted to let you know your driver's/passengers side brake light is out, tail light is out." and I ask for their DL & Insurance. I check their info to make sure they have no warrants and I go back and let them know why I stopped them. Then "So, did you just stop me b/c I'm black in a black neighborhood?"... No, I stopped you b/c your tail light is out and I just wanted to let you know, but I appreciate the racial comment. You have a wonderful day! So, are there officers out there on a power trip? Sure, it's no different from the corporate world. Quote:
