I had someone say something to that effect to me one night. So I simply called my Sgt. He knew of the person, and could see no reason why any sort of special treatment should be given. Just because someone knows a lot of cops, doesn't mean that the cops don't think that the person is an asshole.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

dharma1976 0 #53 October 11, 2006 actually I come from a very poor family...the truth was this guy was pulling a douche move and was an asshole about it...maybe I left the asshole part out of it... and no I wasnt a brat I had to work for everythign I have and one of those things is not getting my civil libertys treaded on by a douchebag... btw that douchebag got fired anyway cause he fucked with someone else and they actually went after him truth be told I like most of the cops I meet, this one went out of his way to be an asshole and I gave it back to him tenfold...does that make me an asshole perhaps... but in truth he deserved what he got davehttp://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

Aye... the truth of the matter is that this guy was actually an asshole and I gave him back what he gave... if he had been nice from the get go about the total crap that he was harrassing me abotu I would have been nothing but respectful... but he wasnt and for no good reason...so WITH good reason I called him an asshole....and then when he felt small cause I called him an asshole and threatened me...I threatened him right back...and by the fact that he left without so much as a parting shot he got the point Davehttp://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

Amazon 7 #58 October 11, 2006 Hell I think the Mayor was DEFINITELY fair game... another fucking hypocrite. I do have problems with cops and others in power who do not protect and serve.... but abuse the power they have. In my rather LARGE extended southern family... the only difference between some of them being on one side of the law or the other was the ones who did not get caught in their wrongdoing went on to become police officers...

Jumpervint 0 #59 October 11, 2006 The mayor was a hypocrite. It was amusing when Al Franken's show came here and broadcast. They really lambasted the mayor - he declined to appear on the show. I have problems with any official who abuses their power, reagardless of party affiliation. I just think the trooper in question is getting shafted by the press, which seems to latch on to such stories like a dog on a bone and refuses to let up until great damage has been done. I'll let you know how his trial turns out. Vint. . . . . "Make it hard again."

cloudseeker2001 0 #60 October 11, 2006 Glad to hear that I am not the only one who attracts bad cops. It has gotten so bad in the last 4 or 5 years that I now carry my mini-disk recorder almost everywhere I go. I may not be able to use the recording in court-due to some oddity of the law I am sure-but hopefully it will be on the news or something.

sartre 0 #62 October 11, 2006 This thread is scaring the shit out of me considering recent occurrences with a neighbor of mine who is a cop..... What should you do if you feel a cop is being inappropriate with you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #63 October 11, 2006 QuoteWhat should you do if you feel a cop is being inappropriate with you? Your cop, your neighbor? They're people too, tell him/her. If that doesn't work, you may have to contact his/her supervisor. That should be a 2nd step, though, since that's when it gets serious for the officer. Days off, and other actions that could actually lead to loosing his/her job. However, if there is a problem and your neighbor won't act right, then that may be what you have to do. What is your neighbor doing, is it while on duty or off duty and does it involve anything illegal.

JohnRich 4 #67 October 11, 2006 Quoteswearing in a public place is an offence over here. I'd let it go if it was swearing in general conversation but directed at me... no way... you have to take action else every idiot would be out there disrespecting police officers... he would have failed my attitude test. Ah, so this really isn't about enforcing the written law, it's about enforcing the unwritten "law" against "contempt of cop". You've got a badge and you've got authority, and you'll teach those punks not to mess with you. Right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've got a badge and you've got authority, and you'll teach those punks not to mess with you. Right? It's an offence People swear in conversation all the time but meaning nothing by it, its just the sad state of peoples language nowadays. I am a culprit for it most definately. If, however, someone is directing insults and swearing at another person then they should be dealt with accordingly. Just because I wear a uniform does that mean I should put up with abuse. Afraid not, in fact having a duty to preserve the peace and uphold respect for the law I am MORE likely to take action rather than let it slide.
