Argue with a cop... get tasered. NO JOKE!

Cops now days will taser you for ANY reason they deem necessary!

Even arguing with them... a$$ holes!

I'm not a huge cop fan, but I have never had a problem with one.

Arguing with a cop about any sort of ticket is pointless. So I'm just polite, if I was speeding I have found admiting that I was works wonders. If you don't think the ticket is fair talk to the judge.

Cops were wrong here, and are pulling this crap everyday, all around the country! > QUOTE:

In the videos described here, the drivers weren’t resisting—at worst, they were less than instant in their compliance. That calls for Level Four force? Following the Austin incident, the department’s Internal Affairs office saw no problem, but then acting Chief Cathy Ellison ordered Officer O’Connor suspended for three days.

Viagra, Levitra is very expensive and not covered by many insurances. Cialis is cheaper because "She, give you everything you want. Boom Boom long time.". Either way, you are paying for it out of pocket.

Tasering you, OTOH, does the same thing and it is free for them so they can get hard for the wives at home.

You're an idiot. Just because one Officer was out of line that makes all of us Taser happy *******s? I resent your insinuation that all cops are bad simply because of the actions of a VERY SMALL percentage.

And you can't count and/or read. There were 2 officers mentioned. I wouldn't call you all Taser happy *******s. Not all of you have tasers. The last part, well, so far, lets say that most of the officers I have met, most, not all, have that part there. It's not the taser or the gun. It's the attitude that they have a badge and a gun and can do what they want.

Not to say cops are useless. They can fill out reports, when they feel like it so we can claim insurance. See, I said something nice about cops by highlighting their usefulness. Other than that, I don't need them or want them. When they can act professional WITHOUT THE ATTITUDE, we can talk.

I see it all the time. One of the best ones I personally witnessed was a guy sitting on a couch wearing just some shorts with no weapons or any other objects within reach. The guy did not stand up when the officer told him to. The guy on the couch simply pointed his finger at the officer and BAM!!! he was instantly tased.

Or beaten?

And it's all brainwashing. It's not a job, it's a lifestyle. That's why they take the cruisers and equipment home, if not outfitting all their personal cars with it as well.
Cop came to work, one of the first things he said was "on the outside I'm all business. But I'm laughing my behind off while I'm handcuffing people." Shortly before telling my coworkers and I about how the laws apply to us not them, because "they get paid to take risks".

That might work to give them a woody. Like I said, it is cheaper than viagra or even Cialis.

My cousin is a cop in California. He said MOST of the married officers cheat on their wives and the rate of alcoholism for cops is about four times what it is for the general public. He also said that cops confiscate and pocket about half the dope they run across. I've seen this myself...

More dirty cops out there than good ones.

Guess I should be friendly to cops so I can get some good dope.

My next door was a cop but he was an alcoholic (I saw him drinking all the time) and he got busted for banging his girlfriend when he was supposed to be on duty (his wife was none too happy about that). He got canned and last I heard he is a cop/sheriff or something in OK or somewhere.

They need to start paying a bit better and screening a whole lot better.

Screening won't help with them getting corrupted by the power from the badge and gun
