Cops aren't very nice anymore

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

I got arrested Tuesday night for fighting in the bar that's an hours drive from the logging camp.

 

the officer was really rude. He put me in the drunk tank for the night. I tried to tell him that a case of beer isn't enough to get me drunk but he wouldn't listen.

 

 

sigh.

So what you're really saying is, cops aren't that stupid anymore.

Who cares about that?

 

Did you win the bar fight?

I still can't believe that you're a lumberjack. I didn't think those Canadian stereotypes were tru, but here we have a beer-swilling hockey loving lumberjack to prove me wrong.

 

Did you apply for the job online?

I think that Cops aren't tough enough these days. Why if I was a cop you can bet there'd be some punks I'd be cracking down on. I looked around me in High School and now in College and think "There are some many people here right now that would go to jail if I were a cop..." *sigh* In 2 years I could give it a shot...

My brother is a cop. He got called to a bar fight but that was Monday. And it was in Boston. Dont know where you are though.

I got pulled over a few weeks ago for an outdated license plate. PA used to have dark blue plates, and when they changed to a different color I was out of state.

 

I got pulled over on the way to a job interview, and told the officer my situation. Showed him my registration, which I got right before going to my interview, my new plate, which I didn't have time to put on, my license and proof of insurance.

 

I also had my hands on the steering wheel and only moved when I let him know what I wanted to do. After he told me that I may get pulled over by other officers and to get that plate on ASAP, I shook his hand and that was that.

 

Cops seem fine to me...

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

I avoid all contact with the police. I don't get 'em called on me, and I don't call 'em on anyone else. It's like I don't exist.

anymore?

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

Nope. Never, outside of a couple routine traffic stops. I don't get in trouble.

Didn't you also mention that you broke someone's arm?

Oh by all means...let's let you off because you say you're not drunk. You drank a case of beer and got into a fight. You got off light buddy. You deserved to rot in that drunk tank all night.

I get in trouble for the dumbest reasons. If a cop is in a bad "I want to shoot something" mood, I think fate draws them to me.

 

I got a cop pull a gun on me and 3 friends outside a McDonalds for...well...nothing.

 

My friend went inside to order his food. A few minutes later the policeman comes over and says:

 

You guys are going to have to leave there's no loitering here.

 

Me: Okay....

 

 

...

 

 

Cop: I mean it...you all need to move.

 

Me: Well, I'm sitting on the passenger side and he's sitting in the back. Niether of us are driving.

 

Cop: I want this car moved NOW.

 

Me: What do you want me to do, steal it. The owner is inside getting food.

 

Cop: I need all of you to step out of the care*with hand on gun*.

 

Now I guess right now wasn't the best time to laugh at obviously pissed off cop, but I found this to be bloody hilarious.

 

Cop: DO YOU FIND SOMETHING FUNNY GET OUT OF THE CAR RIGHT NOW!!!!!

 

Well my other friend is terrified and gets out the car and gets on his knees with his hands behind his head...despite the cop never asking us to do that...I find this even funnier.

 

Me: Dude...why are you on your knees? He didn't say to do that.

 

Him: Quit playing and get down *nearly crying*

 

So my friend who owns the car comes walking up eating a big mac...

 

Him: Whuts goin on *with mouth full of burger*

 

Cop: *pulls gun* GET DOWN NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!.

 

The image of half chewed bigmac falling out the gaping mouth of my friend will be a image that will make me laugh until my dying day. So my friend drops his bag, gets down (wearing a brand new raiders jersy and laying on a oil spot). I am still finding this outragously funny because it has happened so fast and I just can't believe it. So I basically stand there with my hand kinda raised with a goofy smile on my face. This other cop has come now and is cuffing us and then getting our story. The other cop odviously overreacted and we were let go.

 

The crazy cop was cool though. He bought my friend another Raiders jersey. Now I wish I had gotten down on the ground because I was wearing a old Suns jersey and could have used another.

 

That concludes "Times I've had policemen pull their gun on me" vol. 1.

Perhaps.... just perhaps... I'm not saying this is the reason though... so bear with me here. Perhaps it's because you are... nevermind.

And I'm not mad that I got in trouble. I'm mad that I had to stay over night. I broke the guy's arm in SELF DEFENCE.

 

Jerk said that Gretzky sucked. I disagreed. He insulted my mother's integrity. I made fun of his face. He hit me with a bottle. I broke his arm.

I got 4 cop cars worth of guns pulled on me once. It was all a big mixup, but still it sucked hard.

 

My mom bought a new car, and I bought the current car from her. She sent in the DMV work and had me switch the plates the next day.....BIG MISTAKE.(Advice never do this ever until you are SURE the paperwork has gone through). So anyways, me and my friend are heading to Denny's after work at about 12am. I see an umarked car behind me and he puts i small red light device on his windshield(the inside) I am not exactly sure what that was supposed to mean, if he wanted me to pull over or just get out of his way, so since Denny's was less then a block away I just drove that block and pulled into Denny's thinking he would keep going. So I pull in, then he pulls in. So I figure hmmm..maybe I am going to get a fix it ticket or something. Before I could even turn off my car, 4 more cop cars blaze into the parking lot and cops with all their guns drawn start barking at me. Now keep in mind the last time I had ever been in contact with a cop was probably at an assembly in school. So I am not accustomed to procedure when it comes to getting a ticket, which at this time, I thought was all I was getting. Me and my friend(who is drunk) are just kind of half panicking, half wondering wtf is going on.

 

So the cops run through all this procedure. Get your hands up, use your left hand, keeping yer right hand up to remove your seatbelt. Use your right hand to open door etc etc.......

 

He had me get out of the car, lay on my stomach, and slide backwards to him. Not helping matters he had a K-9 unit, and I could hear the dog whimpering to be let go. Then Iwas being instructed that if I make any sudden moves the Dog will be sicked on me. Keep in mind it is in the middle of december, I am in a t-shirt on the ground, so I am shivering and I am just praying they don't take shivering as sudden movement.

 

So anyways, they run me through everything including a breathalizer which I pass. And then we all come to an agreement that it was all a big mixup and we are taken out of handcuffs.

 

Looking back on it now, I can laugh at it, and chaulk it up as a great story to tell friends, but I really think that once they took my wallet and saw my last name matched the last name on the license plate they could have put 2 & 2 together. They also took the fucking plates and we had to go buy and register new ones. I found that highly unecessary.

 

Oh and the highlight of the night. After the ordeal we said "fuck it" and went into Denny's anyways. The look on people's faces was priceless.

Hmm, that's a pretty cool story. The only interesting story I have is that I was threatened with arrest for standing in front of a mall waiting for a ride. Never mind that thirteen year old kids are not only doing the same thing but SMOKING as well, I'm standing in front of the mall waiting for a ride. I must be up to something.

Five or six years ago, during college, on one Friday night, an ex of mine and I were lying in the bed of my truck on our backs just looking up at the sky, watching stars (her idea, not mine) in poorly lit parking lot at one of the city parks. All of a sudden, a bright light was flashed into the back of the truck and we heard a man's voice say, "Stand up slowly."

 

Blinded and confused, we sat up and found a sheriff's deputy pointing his Maglite right at us. "What are you two doing out here?"

 

In total disbelief that he'd give a shit what we were up to (I mean, we were both fully dressed how much could we really be up to?), I stammered "Uh, just looking at the sky, sir."

 

"Looking at the sky, huh?" He paused a moment. "Got any ID on you?"

 

"Yes, sir."

 

"Let me see it."

 

I'd never been confronted by a cop outside of traffic stop, so I was more than a little panicked. I climbed out of the truck and handed my driver's license to him. He studied it for a good five minutes or so, before saying, "You go to the college?"

 

"Yes, sir."

 

Then he turned to my ex and said, "Do you know this young man?"

 

"Yes, I do," she said. He then made her tell him MY full name. Not hers, mine. I guess I looked like a rapist or something.

 

"Are you here on your free will, ma'am?"

 

"Yes."

 

About this time, since I was just standing around, I put my hands in my pockets, as I usually do when I have nothing better to do with them. The cop whirled around back towards me and yelled, "Get your hands out of your pockets, boy. You're making me nervous!" (I'M making HIM nervous????)

 

After another minute of looking us over and studying my license, he finally handed my license back to me and said, "It's after midnight. Why don't you two go on back to campus?"

 

"Yes, sir. We will."

 

"Sorry about this. Truth is, I thought I'd found me a couple of queers laying up in that truck. This is a big area for queers to hang out." I wanted to laugh at this, but I figured I'd just "make him nervous" again. "You two have a good night," he said.

 

"Yes, sir." And then he drove away.

 

It's a funny story now, but I was scared shitless when it happened because I had NO idea why he was picking on us. Ah, the old days....

Well I had a funny instance with the cops one time.

See my brother was mouthing off. He's my step brother and he's only 6 months younger than me. So anyways he's doing all this big talk(nevermind that i'm twice his size and he's never been able to so much as hurt me in a fight)and this was just the culmination of a year of taking his shit since he moved back in with me and my parents. So I calmly say "Leave me alone or I'm going to hit you..." he keeps mouthing off I stand up and punch him right in the mouth. He tries to tackle me(remember i'm 6'4 and 250 lbs. he's 5'7" and 150 lbs.) so I basically just catch him and whip him around onto the couch where my rage gets the better of me and i just start wailing on him. I had to have punched him in the face and head for a good 2 minutes straight. Then when I noticed he wasn't moving I stepped back and he fell off the couch. He started to mouth off again so I kicked him in the back. I stared at him for a while as I calmed down and realized what I'd just done. He was laying on the ground not moving with a puddle of blood appearing around his head. I freaked out and called my parents who then called an ambulance and the police. So a cop shows up...this just doesn't look good. But luckily my parents show up at the same time. The cop takes me outside and gets a report. Luckily I still have my mom to look out for me(even though i'm 19) and she forbids my brother from pressing charges. The cops chock it up to a domestic dispute and leave me the hell alone.

Ahh...then the little bastard tried to start a fight with me the next day. I just kicked him in the stomach as hard as I could when he rushed me and it was over...some people never learn.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

In one of the stranger moments of my life, I was sitting downtown one fine evening, completely out of my mind, gazing at streetlights and shadows, and other flickering things, when this cop pulls up near where I was, and just STARED at me for a solid minute. I stood there, looking back at him..doing nothing. It was like we were connected or something, man..it was weird. He then got tired of staring at me, and went on his way. Didn't get out, didn't talk to me..just stared at me. I didn't get nervous either, since he didn't have any reason to bother me, and he couldn't prove I'd been doing anything if he did.

 

I can say I beat a cop in a staring contest, though.

If you were a REAL Canadian you would've hit him after he knocked Gretzky.

That's amazingly hilarious, for some reason...

 

I actually just got pulled over tonight for the first time, cuz I was apparantly doing like, 80-85 or so in like, a 50 zone...I honestly didn't even notice I'd been speeding, but that's probably because I ALWAYS speed on that road.

 

Anyway, I didn't really even get a warning - he just told me to take it easy. I think he was just making sure to check people, on account of it's a holiday weekend and they didn't want any drunks cruising around.

I work with some cops and I've learned from them that if you just act respectful and do some small talk, they will let you off with a warning, if even that. About two months ago I was with my cousin and his friends, the oldest not even 19, in a Chysler Concorde with 7 people in the car, me with my green hair and goatee, the almost palatable aroma of pot flowing from everyone, and an open bottle of Grey Goose in the back set, and by just being respectful and polite with him, just got a "keep it down and get home". Guess just good karma for helping a cop during a Super America robbery.

This other time me and two friends got off work early and we went to an area of his apartment complex that won't wake people when you are talking and shootin the shit. So anyways we see a cop car roll by and we didn't think anything of it. Next thing you know 5mins later we see the cop hiding inbetween the cab and the trailer of a uhaul parked about 20 ft away, just watching us. He continues watching for a good 20mins and then just decides to approach us. Turns out he just wanted to make sure one of us lived in the complex so we weren't tresspassing.
