How good do you treat your police?

[Particle]

The police around here are crazy; most are corrupt.  I haven't met a 'nice' officer yet(if they exist).  I got pulled over once for screeching my tires.  I didn't even do that malarkeye on purpose and it wasn't even like a burn out.  Just a quick screech.  The damn cop pulled me over, and told me to get out of the car.  I didn't want any problems so I just got out.  Then he started treating my like a damn criminal.  He put my hands in cuffs, my face against my car, and then searched me.  He also searched my vehicle, and then he called another asshole to help him fark with me.  When he got there, he put my brother in the car, and he started cursing at me, calling me a faggot, asshole, and other bullmalarkey.  After like an hour of him interrogating me, and getting pushed around and cursed at, he let me go...no ticket, no nuthin.  Thanks guy.

So you more or less agree with my take on the police?

Yep.

Don't get me wrong.  I'm sure that there are some nice cops out there, but I just haven't had a chance to meet them yet.

I recently spent the night in jail for driving with a suspended license.  The funny thing is, I didn't know it was suspended.

When I got out of jail, I got a letter in the mail saying "If you don't repond to this letter before the suspension date (Nov 6.) your license and registration will be suspended.  The postmark on the envelope was Nov. 7th.  How the fork was I supposed to respond to the letter before the suspension date?

I think the whole system is forked up.

Cops are horsemalarkey.

My band ran out of gas in the middle of the night in a po-dunk town in South Dakota once.  You can drive for hours without seeing a station, especially pulling a trailer (burning lots of fuel).  Anyway...it's like 12:30 - 1 AM in this little town and the only gas station available was an unmanned pump station that took credit cards.  We pulled up to the station and ran out of gas, not knowing that no one was working at the station.  After about 15 minutes the local Barney Fife shows up...he even had one of those old cars like on Andy Griffith.  Picture a bunch of long haired musicians standing in the parking lot of a closed gas station....

anyway, we had cash, but no credit cards.  We thought we were gonna get hassled, but the cop offered to let us use his credit card and pay him the cash.  We gave him $25 cash(filled the tank back then) and he let us use his card to get $25 in gas, no questions asked.  He wished us a good trip and drove off.

Another time I was about 5 miles from my house at a quick stop getting some bread and cigarettes or something and the main belt on my engine snapped when I got back into and started my car.  I walked back into the store where there was a policeman just hanging out, and asked him if he would "protect and serve and give me a ride to my house", since my car broke down.  My wife was home alone with sick babies and couldn't come pick me up.  He thought about it for a second and said "sure" then we started walking out and he got a call on his radio.  He said he was sorry but he had to respond.  I understood, so I thanked him and started walking home.  About a half mile into my journey, another police car pulled up behind me and flashed his lights at me.  He said that the officer that responded to the other call has radioed him and asked him to give me a ride home, which he did.

A few days before my wife and I got married, we both had our respective bachelor/ette parties on the same night at the bars.  We met up at the end of the night and started driving to her house...drunker than shiat.  In a little town notorious for giving tickets and getting drunk drivers, these cops pulled me over for running a red light, then they gave us a breath test and we both failed.   I sort of pleaded with them, "We're getting married in a couple of days and this was our party night"...long story short, the cops said they would escort us back to our house, which they did.  No ticket, no warning, just a "congratulations and be a little safer out there"

Should I go on?

I saw 2 highway patrol cars pulled up behind an SUV the other day while I was driving on the highway.  I thought it was gonna be some big drug bust or maybe they would be handcuffing some illegal immigrants or something, but to my surprise they were on the passenger side of the vehicle in the rear.  One of them was standing over the other one looking at him intently while the other guy was changing a flat tire.  The SUV belonged to an older lady.  I was tempted to call the Hypo station and give them a kudos, but I forgot until now.  You really dont see that kind of stuff very often around here.

A while back, a friend and I were driving to northern Kansas from Parsons.  On the way, my friend's car started acting goofy and the steering wasn't working right.  To be safe, he pulled off the road and stopped in front of some old abandoned building.  He got out of the car and opened the hood, started looking around for what might be wrong, and thought he smelled something hot.  So, he took off his shirt and wrapped his hand in it before touching what he thought might have been warm.  He instantly jerked back because of how hot the thing was.  About this time, a hypo pulls up behind the car with its lights flashing.  My friend takes the shirt off of his hand and puts it back on himself as the cop gets out of his car.  I figure that the cop pulled up to see if he could help up out, but instead he just tells my friend to get back in the car.  The cop asks for his license and proof of insurance (rarely is anybody asked for registration in Kansas).  My friend had just gotten his car back from being fixed, and apparently some of his papers were missing.  His dad had apparently moved it while the car was at his parents' house.  About this time, the cop asks me for my ID as well, which I handed over.  After about five minutes doing whatever it is takes five minutes in his cop car, he comes back over and gives me back my license.  He asks my friend to step out of the car for a chat.  Apparently, the cop told my friend that he thought we were both on drugs and wanted to search the car.  After being given permission to do so, the cop decided against doing it.  My friend also got chastized about having his shirt off.  The cop just gets in his car and leaves, claiming he was just going to give a warning for reckless driving and speeding.

This is odd, considering that my friend was doing the speed limit and wasn't doing anything that could possibly be considered reckless.  Heck, the cop took so long to even show up that there was no way he could have even seen us until after we'd already pulled over.

Thanks for wasting fifteen minutes, harassing us, making phony accusations, and not even bothering to see if you could fix the damn car, hypos.  Protect and serve my ass.

Damn, Part. I can't blame a cop for being suspicious, but that's just downright nonsensical.

Worst i've had it is being out with a group of friends. It was friday night and we had my telescope. We were going to go to the levi and away from the city lights to get a better view of the sky. Not 20 seconds after we pull into a parking lot, two cops show up and immediately ask us questions. I guess they thought we might be stashing drugs, considering they were a K-9 unit. Though the fact that i was carrying my telescope and none of us had anything else on us (except our IDs, thankfully. We almost left without them) probably saved us from any further trouble.

Needless to say, we were told to get out. Lake is closed. Go home. Stuff like that.

I later found out that it was one of the major dances for the local high school, and the cops figured we were probably ditching the dance for drugs.

I have so many stories about the police.  Here's one I just remembered.

One of my friends from Mississippi came to Oklahoma a few years ago during the summer to hang out and party.  Well, this guy is a real honest-to-god pothead.  He ALWAYS has a sack on him.  Anyways, me, my GF at the time and one of her underage friends and him go to a public park with a 24 pack of beer and start drinking (he's underage also).  Well, one of my other buddies calls me and finds out where we are and shows up like 10 minutes later.  He drives this huge creepy child molester van.  Some of you know him by the name Achromatos.  Anyways, the guy "Nathan" from Mississippi didn't have any herb that day, but just as a joke had taken some kinda actual herbs and put them in a sack.  I think it was kinda like a security blanket or something until he could get the real thing.  So about an hour after we had been there drinking and having a good time I look up and notice a car coming into the park.  The park is very poorly lit, so i couldn't tell who it was or what kinda car it was until the lights hit it just right.  When i got a good look at it I saw that it had lights on the top.  I start yelling that it's the cops and everyone goes into a mad panic.  I take the remainder of the 24 pack and put it in the backseat of my car, then I grab empty and half full cans of beer and start throwing them in the nearby field.  I see Achromatos out of the corner of my eye closing the sliding door to his van as he hides in the back.  This all took place in less than 15 seconds.  The cop finally shows up and there we are.  I have a beer in my hand cause im over 21 and I figure screw em'.  If anyone was gonna get in trouble it was probably best if it was me.  He gets out of his car and lines us up for a pat down.  In my head I'm thinking...."What a waste of time, nobody has anything on them".  About that time the cop comes up with the fat sack of "herbs" that Nathan had on him which normally would've been real, but tonight wasn't.  He tells the cop that it's green tea that he keeps on him for when he eats out at restaurants, but the cop doesn't believe him.  He handcuffs him and puts him in the car while he gets a testing kit out of his trunk.  Meanwhile, the underage chick is so sloppy drunk that she starts trying to take a piss right there in front of him.  He tells her to stop, but she keeps back-talking and almost gets arrested.  I had to yell at her to sit down and STFU.  That got her attention because I dont normally yell.  So anyway, he tests the herbs and finds out that they're not real.  He takes Nathan out of the car and turns him loose and tells us to get out of the park because it's like 2 hours after park curfew.  We tell him ok and he leaves.  We take the beer out of the backseat and start drinking again.  About this time I start to notice we're missing somebody.  I go over to Achromatos' van and he's all huddled in the back looking like a rabid dog.  Apparently he had a warrant or maybe a suspended DL.  The night ended with me getting laid while a drunk, underage chick puked her guts up.  Good times.
