Cops are nazi's.. Doesn't take crap to be one.. Just the want to hold a gun on 70 year old grandmother, or pistol whip a teen out after dark. <BR/><BR/>Why aren't I a cop? I prefer to be looked at as something more than a little napoleon, with a nightstick.. I am sorry you had to go through it, but damned happy you didn't give in to the fascists.<BR/>Most 'cops' I ever served with on a tour pissed themselves when the enemy started firing, or worse, they wouldn't come out of the hole to return fire themselves. Don't trust one on the battle field, certainly don't trust one as the protector on the streets. I think we should fire all of them and allow the military to take charge of it all. No BS, no pot smoking cops stealing dope from offenders, just soldiers doing what they do best, taking care of the American citizen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-30344304000227787232009-04-12T17:15:00.000-05:002009-04-12T17:15:00.000-05:001:26 AM. Your response to my post reflects the sam...1:26 AM. Your response to my post reflects the same attitude of the trooper, sheriff's deputy and many other members of law enforcement. That is unfortunate because you and your ilk give law enforcement a bad name. Your vitriolic comments support my belief that law abiding citizen's have much to fear from officers of the law. I believe laws exist to protect our rights and freedoms, not abuse and restrict them. Nowadays it seems that members of law enforcement officers are power mad, and have now respect for the rights of the public. What happened to "To serve and protect."? It is never acceptable to treat another human being the way that trooper treated my friend and I. <BR/>I forgot to add mysogonist to my description of that trooper. I just finished reading two recent stories about officers indicted for abusing their wives. Your comments speak volumes about the type of person you are.

They give dim wit, over-zealous officers with little man complex way too much power.<BR/>My friend and I were detained by a state trooper and a sherrif's deputy for nearly two hours in the sally port of the SO'S office.<BR/>It happened when my friend and I decided to go fossil hunting in a local creek. We parked leglly and entered the creek legally. When we climbed out of the creek about 2hrs. later my truck was gone. We are female and found ourselves on a rural highway after dark with no vehicle. I called the SO to report my vehicle as stolen and they told me that they would have to call me back. I told them we were alone on the road, afraid and in need of a ride. Another friend of ours called me and told me that she had just received a call from my friend's cell phone, from a state trooper (She had left her purse in my truck ) who told her that I was going to be under arrest and started asking her questions and drilling her. He intimated to her that we were methamphetamine cooks and that my truck had been towed. She asked him where we were and he replied that he did not know. She asked him if he realized that he had stranded two women out in the country. She aslo asked if we had been told what happened and he was just ugly to her. So we learned fro another friend, not the po po, that my truck had been towed as an abandoned vehicle. I called the SO back and they still wouldn't tell me anything. I called again and demanded help. Finally a deputy came and picked us up. He asked if we had weapons and took our bakpacks and placed them in the truck. He would not answer my question and kept a bright light on us the whole time. I asked where we were going and he said to your truck. When I asked where he said just wait. He pulled into the SO and drove to the sallyport where I saw my truck inside. We got out and a tropper came rushing toward me and asked me if I was blah blah, he grabbed my arm and jerked an arrowhead I had found in the creek and told me that it was his because I had been trespassing, and he told me that I was under arrest for felony fire arms and probably some drug charges. I was absolutely outraged. He told me that I was obviously a methamphetamine cook. I asked why, and he said look at your arms, your pathetic. I told that I had a terrible case of poison ivy that had goteen in my system. He scoffed. He asked why I had a fire extinguisher in my truck and batteries for a flashlight. I was so furious and so outraged that I just told him enough. I said if I'm under arrest then read m my rights and let me call my lawyer and he said no, when I get ready. I stood firm and told him either arrest me or let me go, I also asked him why he towed my truck illegaly, why he used my friends cell and most importantly why he wasn't concerned about why he wasn't concerned about our well being since we were not around and he told me that he was there in his car for a while and we should have heard him. I told that I thought his job was to protect and serve and he got furious. He told me to go ahead and admit that I was a cook and he would help me out. I refused and told him that he was violating several of my rights, that this was the USA, and that I believed in the constitution of the United States of America. He asked what that had to do with anything and I toold him everything. I jus started spouting the law and my rights over and over and he finally had to let us go. He kept my arrowhead until the next day when I called his supervisor and madea formal complaint. That was a terrifying night and I still feel sick when I see a trooper, or any other law officer when I am walking at the lake or on a lonely road alone. It's scary.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-21323276146129399632009-04-10T15:27:00.000-05:002009-04-10T15:27:00.000-05:00It's coming from the police unions, JTP.It's coming from the police unions, JTP.Gritsforbreakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152152869466958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-61181843022122355782009-04-10T14:20:00.000-05:002009-04-10T14:20:00.000-05:00So Grits,Who and what are behind Patrick's legisla...So Grits,<BR/><BR/>Who and what are behind Patrick's legislation?JTPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-64745832367235234192009-04-10T04:41:00.000-05:002009-04-10T04:41:00.000-05:00The fact is we are not moving towards a police sta...The fact is we are not moving towards a police state....we have arrived!

It seems, in recent times, there are more 'busybodies' out there, and I feel it stems from a sense of overparanoia. I blame part of this false perception on the media-newspapers and television news. All the crime dramas and reality based shows (CSI, Parole Board,etc)do not help with this situation, and simply feed this paranoia.
