I don't plan on "fucking" people over, I do however intend to preform my job to the best extent possible. If me swearing to an oath and me holding true to my word ruffles peoples panties then y'all can fuck yourselves.
I didnt understand what you wrote, neither did Ben, neither does my girlfriend. Sorry buddy, youre on the outs.

Do good Guy, catch bad guys. Dont fuck over good guys. Protect and serve, dont annoy and harass. The end.

Speed limits are ostensibly about public safety. When cops get dangerous drivers off the road, clear roads, investigate real crime, etc., good. The rest is bullshit.

Cops, and all public servants for that matter need to be put in their place; servants, accountable for the production of public goods, that's it.
That's legislative's job, until that happens, he's just doing his job. Just like a construction worker, banker etc.

I wasn't aware that being LEO wasn't dangerous, I'll make sure I tell that to all my buddies on patrol in Lenox, Watts and Inglewood.

You should work on your German. It's the appropriate language for this line of thinking.

But the reality is LEO have discretion. They let off other officers off all the time. (Ask Nate) Hell even just applicants driving like total idiots get it relatively easy. (Ask yourself.) Meanwhile, the working man, the tax base from which they draw their salaries, not so much. (Ask anyone who is not a cop or closely affiliated. Like Adam, or me.)

They are NOT under legal obligation to site everything they observe. Show me the legislated code of which you seem fond. It should take you some time. Cuz it doesn't exist. Though to be fair, cops can be remarkably ignorant of even basic law and broad concepts, let alone line by line code.

I said it wasn't in the Top 10. Because it isn't.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics' National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries shows that there were a total of 4,383 fatal injuries on the job in the U.S. in 2012, down from 4,693 in 2011. The data also tell us what are the most dangerous professions in America. The top spot goes to logging workers, who lost their lives at a rate of 127.8 per 100,000 full-time workers. Here are the 10 deadliest jobs of all.


1. Logging workers
2. Fishers and related fishing workers
3. Aircraft pilot and flight engineers
4. Roofers
5. Structural iron and steel workers
6. Refuse and recyclable material collectors
7. Electrical power-line installers and repairers
8. Drivers/sales workers and truck drivers
9. Farmers, ranchers, and other agricultural managers
10. Construction laborers

If you have buddies who are cops in LA, you know they dont waste their time with bullshit, because they have real police work to do. LA cops and NY cops are the only ones Ive found who I like.

If you are CHP and a guy flys by you at 71 on the radar, technically he is breaking the maximum speed law. So if you rely exclusively on legislation to make your decision, that's your cut off point. Actually 70.1. But obviously, cops don't do that. So it is up to you where you draw the line.

The basis for all laws is, and well... should be, that we live in a free country, but our freedoms cease when they begin to infringe upon the freedoms of others. Thus, if you drive recklessly, you endanger other drivers, infringing upon their freedom to be safe on the road. If you felt that someone is being reckless, in the SPIRIT of the law, yes, it would be your duty to uphold it.

On the other hand, if you give someone a ticket for going 71 mph. You are a fucking douchebag, and I'll bet everyone on this forum including Rons brother would agree.

Most of the CHP officers have a set speed above the speed limit that they allow before they will write you a speeding ticket. Assuming you are not driving like an ass. For my brother's department that seems to be about 80. If you're under that they won't bother with you but above that or again if you're driving like an ass then they'll write you up. On the freeway I will usually do about 5 mph above the posted speed limit but on city streets I do the speed limit.

Well lets hope you dont drive by Guy or the douchebag cop I drove past yesterday.

Btw, I drive 4mph above the speed limit on the freeway, because the maximum speed law is more strict than the city speed limit.
