Post Cops out in FULL FORCE. Friday and Saturday night.

Cops were out in full force tonight and Friday night. ALl kinds of people were busted for street racing by unmarked cars.

Everything from Dodge Stratus's to Oldsmobiles to Buicks housed Law Enforcement personal. Good thing I got off work super late, or else I would of probably been one of the many busted people.

Are other places doing the same?

I hope that they are out there picking on ricers, that'd be funny. Everyone lay off racing for the next week or two.

I'm going to see it tonight. My friends went early this afternoon to see it. I was busy arguing with my girlfriend.

Guess I'll go by myself. Hey, who knows, maybe they'll be a few pretty girls out there. I hope the cops arent out big time tonight, I'm going to have to show my a$$.

I'll have to wear my High Visibility RED Mustang shirt.

My friend's father is a cop and he said the same thing. They were pulling over people left and right. I went to see it last night and it was an awsome movie, but at the end everyone with rims was peeling out all over the parking lot. This kid with a riced out saturn smashed into a 89? prelude with rims, it was funny, they were speeding around trying to act fast.

Didnt get to see it, all the shows were sold out for the evening. ON A SUNDAY! There were all kinds of Rice, and domestic Muscle, and Domestic Rice out. I honestly have to say, I had the loudest car though. When I drove by the theater I got a few thumbs ups, a few nods, and even a few girls complemented me on my Mustang.

Then it downpoured, killing any kind of fun I could of had.

Me and my friends knew ahead of time that cops would be patrolling the theater (lots of cops) looking to ticket people driving dumb. They did the same during gone in 60 seconds and i saw a mustang get blocked in by 3 cops because he was doing a smokeshow. I rode with my friend because i didn't feel like getting hasseled because my car looks like the kind of car a high schooler would drive (beat up 80's mustang). I've had cops harrass me before about stupid stuff and i'm surprised they didn't harrass us last night (when i saw the movie).
It's a good thing cops are out there to stop the real criminals, kids, especially if they do something wrong (hint of sarcasm ).
