First: Much of what you say is true. That I wont deny. I dont know your history, however because I deal with your kind of personality on a routine basis, I can take an educated guess that you have had some major run in with the police, I'm guessing its been narcotic related and you have had to fork out a lot of money to get out of your charge. You have no respect for LE (I could care less if your father is a cop), You offer suggestions to people on this board that will down right get them in trouble.
Second: Three nights ago, I had to go to a house and tell a mother that her 19 y/o son would not be home because he was killed by a drunk driver who was driving the wrong way down the road, a man who's blood alcohol level was .26 . The man I arrested had two prior DUI's , making this his 3rd, a felony in Virginia. He knew the game, he refused to take any of my test, to include not allowing me to draw his blood for analysis, however what he failed to realize was that all I had to do was get a search warrant for the blood that the hospital took in the ER. He is now facing 15-20 years in prison. If you think "giving a drunk a ride home" in lieu of arresting him solves anything then you go take pictures of dead bodies and tell parents their only child wont becoming home. If you think I do all of that to "Make money for my state" you sir are not nearly as smart as you lead on to believe.
Third: I wake up everyday and put my VEST on. WHY? Because crazy mofo's out there care nothing about the police and will try to kill me for the He|| off it. If you think I put myself out there to get shot or killed to make money for the state, again you are sadly mistaken. If you get stopped at a checking detail and I ask for you license, if you DON't provide it then guess what.... It's called obstruction of justice and fail to produce O.L . Then you get pulled out of your car, put in hand cuffs, and now because you have been arrested, I get to search your car incident to arrest. You get your car towed at your expense, and have to spend the next few hours at the jail until you make bond, unless of course you mouth off to the magistrate in which case you wont get a bond and you'll have to sit there until your court arraignment, which could be 2-3 days.
All of which could have been avoided, if you simply had showed me your drivers license.
Lastly: I agree with Southern and MSBLUELINE when they say that there are bad cops out here.. The majority of us are good officers. We help the public even if it means we have to write them a ticket. I didn't become a Law Enforcement Officer to make money for the state, I get nothing in return if I write 100 or 1000 tickets. I do my job because I enjoy helping others. I enjoy taking people off the road who endanger others. You make it harder for me to do my job, You think you know the law better than me. You know a little about about rights and its dangerous. Again while some of what you speak is true, much is not. Sue me if you want.. I can guarantee you wont win.
