nothing against you sky, but this is typical. everytime someone does something against the law, and the cops catch him, the cops are all of a sudden jerks, and are good for nothing. i come from a long line of police officers, and for years i had to deal with wondering if my father was coming home from work that day. he had to deal with people everyday that did alot worse than gratuitously spin their tires to make someon look. so before you scream foul that the cops gave you a bad rap, look at the tv, and look what they did september 11th. that day was an example of what they do every day. sure, there are a few bad apples, but their numbers are far far far fewer than the real heroes of this country.

oh, and pkrwud, when you got busted those few times, and went to jail those few times, did you break the law, or was some cop being an ***$hole?

Oh yes, they did do their jobs on September 11. Let's all have a party. the cops did their job one day. Doing your job doesn't make you a saint. I suppose I could say, and look at all the professionalism they showed when they got into the cops vs firefighters brawl.

It's a cops job to serve the public interest, not harrass the public. If there are more important things to do than sit back and harrass the crap out of people, then they should be doing it.
