Mother****ing police Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

Today I was on my way to the deli to get something to eat, and I had to do alot of walking back and forth between there and my house, and these two stupid cops stopped me, and when I asked why they stopped me, it was because they saw me walking back and forth up the street. Then they were asking me for my name, my date of birth, where I live, etc., and they started checking me out to see if I had any warrants or anything. This took 5-10 minutes for them to do. It was ridiculous. These two cops stopped me just because I was walking up and down the street back and forth? Are you kidding me? Hasn't my life sucked enough as it is lately? First I get trolled by some idiots because they think I'm somebody else, then my costume I got for the con I had planned to go to doesn't come with a helmet and instead comes with this crappy leather headpiece, and now I get stopped by a couple of cops just because I walked back and forth up the street. Man, I just wanted to tell both those cops to go fuck themselves, but I didn't and sort of kept my cool, because if I had said that to them, it's pretty obvious what would've happened. Is it just me, or is the law enforcement of today really messed up?

You don't happen to live in Arizona do you?

They were probably bored and needed something to do and it was either harass you or go get donuts. (Yeah, I know that's stereotyping, but let's face it that's what law enforcement does whether they want to admit to it or not. Profiling happens).

Anyway, feel lucky. I've got a friend who was just picked up for being drunk in public, walking mind you not driving at least. Her twelve year old left his uncle to chase after her, in worn out shoes. They added child neglect on to it because the shoes had holes in them. Then the paper printed her name! And CPS got involved.

Yep ... it seems like you're going through some period of misfortune, Allen! But do look at the brighter side in the meantime ... there must be some good things happening around you, and if not, you just have to be a bit patient for a change in luck! I always try to console myself by saying that there could be worse scenarios when such things happen!

You did well in keeping your cool with those cops ... it would have just aggravated your situation to no avail! You've shown some good maturity there!

We know where the bad luck fairy headed, Allen!!

I agree - you showed great maturity and restraint by just cooperating with the police and giving them what they want.

My philosophy has always been to be polite. Nobody can ever do anything to you if you're polte to everybody.

Good for you!

I'm glad you kept your cool! It never pays to lose your temper in situations like that.

Ahhhh in some ways you have to be happy that the local police are apt enough that they are questioning someone they feel are walking the streets suspiciously... It sucks that in this case it wasn't necessary, however ... but they were doing their job.

You holding your restraint and doing as they asked was a good show on your part.

Many people do lose their cool in situations like that, so cheers to you!

Poor Flash encountered something similar to that ... well kinda .. when he was visitng me in Australia.

I lived in a teeny tiny town (which Flash fell in love with) .. We gave Flash an old Honda Civic to drive while he was there.

So he is used to driving on the right hand side, and in Australia we drive on the left.

He was making a left turn, and swung wide as he would need to do in Canada, and corrected with a groan, which swerved us a little.

Well .. I have no idea where these cops were, but next thing you know there's the red an dblue flashing lights behind him, and we got pulled over.

In that case, a license check would be all required. But they took one look at him and realized he wasn't local.

Poor Flash got pulled from the vehicle, had his license checked, breath checked, had a sobriety test on the road .... With me chuckling in the passenger seat.

There were four .. yes that's right .. four cops in that one car. Two of them Big bloody Maori guys (My aussie girls -- you know how GIGANTIC Maori's are...) So the Maori guys all puffed chested stood guard while the White Aussie guys put Flash through torture.

They didn't understand the Canadian license (Ontario licenses then were paper, not cards) ... and couldn't determine if it was valid or not ...

Finally, I crawled out of the car (I had to end the torture at some point) and the cops all immediately recognized me -- not not a bad girl, only one arrest on my record ... for indecent exposure -- don't ask. But it was a small town.. small ... They all chuckled and apologised to him. Flash told them how to read the Canadian license and assured him that the october 1972 date on it was not the expiration date, but his birthday .... like duh ...

A chuckle between them all, and a warning to learn how we fucking drive in Australia, mate ..Fucking frozen Yanks... haha ... and we were on our way.

Flash still laughs that I stayed in the car only to toture him ... i maintian that I had about 7 beers n me at the time and so I was trying not to look drunk and disorderly and the cops appeared bored enough to cite me for it ... LOL

I think you can actually blame a very successful poker player for what the police did.

I forget his name but he is now an FBI top bod who has the uncanny knack of figuring out whether you lying or not but anyway back to the topic he basically in the 70's he apprehended several men who were attempting to commit an armed robbery based. He deduced this by watching them walking up and down the street, like you did.

Since this successful arrest American Police have since adopted a law or procedure as you will that basically says if someone is acting strange then they have the right to stop and ask you what your up to.
