10 bucks here and not a primary stop.
Which is 10 more than it should be.

Often times a person's avatar is not an actual image of the person posting.

Take TRH for example. You may think he's a gold coin, but he isn't. He's a person.

Yeah, but according to Charles Barkley, they're big ol' sheep... and in my neighborhood, New Braunfels, they're mainly a bunch of well-armed sheep of German descent who love to shoot stuff... like sheep molesters.

Uh, well Travis, since that's not your pic I was kind of wondering, are you white? I mean, uh, on the outside.

No I guess not, I was always busy taking care of my own, never had the inkling or need to get behind a uniform and a badge so I could tell others how to act.

This thread really makes me question the �$1000 fine for littering� sign I saw today; what I throw out the window really is no one�s business but my own. Plain, empty ditches are so over-rated anyway. wink

I hate these campaigns. I got in my truck one time in Frisco, Colorado and drove about two blocks towards I-70. I pulled on my seat belt after two blocks and evidently passed a city cop as I pulled the seat belt on. I saw him turn around and get behind me. I drove carefully, not knowing why he pulled a u-turn. Then, as I turned to get on I-70 he hit the lights and pulled me over. First thing he asked me about was my seat belt. I told him I was wearing my seat belt. Then I asked him why he pulled me over, because by law he can't pull me over for a seat belt anyway. He said my rear wheels crossed the white line on the entrance ramp. I told him he was wrong. He offered me a choice - no point and $75 for no seatbelt or $150 and three points points crossing the white line. What an asshat.

I got the same offer from a Florida Highway Patrolman a couple of years back, except it was for speeding...and yes, I was on duty.

Perhaps your employer will take some of that 'click-it-or-stick-it-to-the-taxpayer' additional revenue.......to actually deposit in those empty public pension accounts.

Yea, probably not.

What on earth happened with the Florida Highway Patrol? Sounds almost as bad as the witch that pulled over and arrested the Miami officer a couple of years ago. At least the one that got you didn't make a big deal out of the 100mph+ chase to get you by smearing it all over the media I guess.

Yep, next two nights we run "wolf packs". For DUI patrols

We put a trooper in a car from another agency, with that officer. That gives us jurisdiction anywhere in the county. Wr will have several if these teams from numerous agencies, all given specific patrol areas.

How do you keep that GD F'n bell from going off in the Fords? I don't usually wear one at work because I'm in and out of the truck every 5 minutes.
