cop followed me.

Actually anyone here can check back on P2 where it all started...I made a comment in no way related to you....about officers appreciating cars as much as any other person...you responded with a direct quote on me about pigs and revenue...who started attacking whom first?

Nice pic Frost!

Like I said, it was a general comment related to the topic at hand, about how speed traps are nothing more than revenue generating scams. Nothing at all directed towards you as a person. You're the one who decided to go off on a tangent about how police are all saints and the saviors of humanity and how terribly misguided I am to think otherwise.

IBTL!!!

I actually agree with speed traps being nothing but revenue generating tools. I think most people feel that way. That said, I know the gamble, if I am speeding and I get caught then I take the ticket and pay it, it's the price of doing business.

On another note, but brother has been a police officer in St Louis for almost 8 years. During that time he has been shot at, bitten, spit on, choked, cut etc etc. He hates writing speeding tickets and rarely does. He was a big street biker for many years so he has let many people off when they were acting like idiots. He has also won several awards for major drug busts as well as saving the life of an old woman. He also boxes every year to raise money for charity. So DO NOT accuse all police officers of being power abusing ego-maniacs, as it is not true. Are there dirty cops? Sure, just like there are law breaking lawyers, judges, military personnel and so on. The bad decisions of a few shouldn't bring down the rest.

You ever think that the officers dont go oh hey lets set up speed traps! THey listen to what their bosses tell them to....

I don't think he was getting at that.

Not saying it as an attack at him cuz he is the man. I was just curious

K, just making sure. We can't have OGs bickering. This place would tear itself apart.
