Cops have a tough job in the world we live in today,...and it's going to get much tougher as time passes.
They can be a pain in the butt,...no doubt about it,...but I suspect I'd soon turn into a pain in the butt too if I had their job.
In fact,...I doubt that I could do their job, period.
I'd go nuts on some [bleep] someday. I don't have a hell of a lot of patience.
As a reply to the OP, your reply is bullshit. Cops acting like a-holes isn't something that should be tolerated by the people. Harassing someone for doing the right thing and driving safely is a big deal. When you take little situations and abuse your authority, you undermine all of you co-workers by eroding the base of respect your profession used to have with the general public. My one "serious" interaction with the MPD changed me from pro-police to "maybe give them the benefit of the doubt" with a huge emphasis on maybe.

You seem smart enough to figure it out. Of course I might be wrong.

Yeah,..but you're a Minnesota yankee. Ain't nothing up there in that frozen wasteland but yankee azzholes. Why would you expect yankee cops to be any different?

Damn yankees runnin' around up there,...givin' each other the finger,..sayin' "fug you" instead of "good morning".
Then some yankee cop pulls 'em over and they start cryin' about how he's an azzhole.
You live in an azzhole part of the country.
Deal widdit.

I live on a Right of Way. There are no city laws governing the usage of it. I work for the power company that owns it & have a letter of right to use it in my home file.
Inevitably, there are three home owners that absolutely object to anyone being back there. So, they call the law on me on a regular basis. Every time the cop does a drive by as required. Every now & then he'll stop, tell me he is simply following orders & remarks that he's done his duty and moves on.
I have had nothing but good encounters with my local law enforcement. I am sure they'll keep up the good work.
By the way, in case you missed it, Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

you are what comes out..........for making a blanket statement like that Agreed, Theres plenty of good cops out there. Nobody writes about them they just b1tch about the bad ones. This is true, but they are in a position to royally EFF with people and do so quite regularly. The NJ route 17/NRA sticker story and side of road cell phone story from the OP are commonplace. Been pulled over for having an ARPCNJ (range) sticker. If I had a pro abortion sticker would they check my car for a bloody fetus? Lotta good cops of course.
Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.

Chatted for a bit, and have to say it was the smoothest least problematic stop/questioning I've had. Drive back to suburbia or heaven forbid the city, a short 40 minute drive, and its quite different. I bet it has to do with the clientelle (sp?) that applies fo rthe various depts.

Crockett,
I am glad to hear that your stop went well. In 18 years I have had stops go all kinds of different directions.
I was blessed on more than one occasion to make aquaintance with folks who would later become friends.
I always let the people I stopped dictate the approach I took with them. I've always tried to treat people as good as they let me.
