In Ga. it is legal to pass on the right that's why this pass/not pass thing really doesn't apply hear.

I don't think that's the point of the question. The point IMO is would you rather be safe and stay behind or risk potentially getting pulled over for something while/after passing.

then what the hell is the point of the question!!

He said the cop was going 3-5 under the speed limit and did not specify what lane the cop was in so to sit behind the cop and drive under the speed limit would be foolish,so to pass him doing the speed limit whats the problem there isn't one.

There's a question right there. Do you pass going speed limit or do you try going a little over the speed limit? People have been on both sides here already. Going 3-5 mph above someone is going to be a really slow pass. Do you do that or go 5-10 over and hope the cop doesn't care and lets you go?

Im assuming this is a highway scenario lol and not a backroad or something where your behind the cop and your going to go around on a passing lane to pass him lol. Highway scenario - pass...
