walking on the moon

pow! right in the kisser... to the moon alice, to the moon!

WHAT ABOUT WEIRD AL????????? DOING POLICE SONGS.........

I dated a police officer a cuople years ago. Best officer ever. Great guy. He took his job as serving his community. If he saw someone walking on the side of the road at 1 am he would stop and ask if the person needed a ride home. ( he didn't have to do that )He kept an eye on the businesses and whose car was whose and if the business owners needed anything he told them let him know. He seriously cared about his community. He was proud of it and looked after it like it was his extended family.

I work in sales. I sell cars. I just sold a car to a lieutenant from the sheriffs office. Hes been there for 21 years...Great guy...his wife is a sweet heart...The same day I sold him the car I got a ticket by one of his officers for expired tags!!...lol

it was my own procrastination and I deserved it...I told his wife about it and she asked me "why didn't you tell them to call my husband?!?!?!"

I laughed....I told her I'm not like that...i deserved it...i didn't think about having them call her husband...*sigh*...oh well

But I have no problem with the men in blue. Granted there will be officers that don't care...but..in general I belive they are there to protect and serve and most do just that.

eh, I don't like giant generalizations...on any group of people. I want to believe there are some decent cops out there, there must be...
My dad was a cop, I dated one, once a very long time ago, NEVER again. Honestly I don't have a very favorable opinion on most...like I said there must be some good ones somewhere.

THE CARS ANOTHER GREAT ROCK GROUP FROM THE 80S..........LOL

yeah, same way in nature there are two headed turtles and albino alligators n whatnot... it's rare but it happens, and it's usually a mistake... and most definitely a mistake on the part of the person who is actually a decent person and decides to put on a police uniform. but yeah, i avoid police as much as possible. like i said, i don't really have anything nice to say about them. they dress alike, they act alike. can't tell 'em apart from one another.

so best bet is to just avoid them whenever possible. no need to make friends with them.

Sorry funny how some want to put the blame on others for their right to bare arms be taking away from them. When they actually had those rights taken away due to their own actions.

I've got nothing but respect for those that choose to be Police Officers. The laws are there sure there will be a few bad ones in the bunch a few times no different then any other profession.

All I can say if one actually follows the law themselves then they should not end up on the wrong side of the law.

Sure I've had tickets ect no one can be blamed but me for them I was in the wrong. But many times I have talked my way out of a ticket as well.

Police Officers are not perfect at times they come up against a situation that they have to make a split minute judgment on the actions they take at times I'm sure the choices could have been different. But then unless one is there at that very moment then how does one know it was not the right one for the moment?

I figured the odds from my many encounters with police with me in the wrong and me trying to stay on the right...1 in 20, for as few good cops that are out there it is pretty much useless thinking you might get lucky and catch one. Kind of like Big Foot.

Fear it's unfortunate that you've had some not so pleasant experiences...

That being said, I agree with Kristi and the others that usually a person has to be doing something and admit to being wrong to understand why they were pulled over or questioned.. In some cases it can be that a person is in the wrong place at the wrong time, that maybe something one doesn't know is going on like there is a call out and they're being very careful b/c it's a dangerous person so they are being a bit over zealous.. All in all they have a very dangerous job.. And while some do let it go to their heads, I think the majority are in it to protect and serve b/c they sure aren't getting rich doing it... It's like our military, without them how safe would we really be? They deserve respect and gratitude for what they do... As for the azzhole one's, well there are azzholes in all walks of life and the majority aren't cops... They're usually the one's in jail and for good reason but that's another thread...

Yeah, crooked characters find their way into all professions, I dont care for the crooked character , rather they have a badge or not

and so i think you have spawned a new thread then.



with respect to ur post, yes txsgal, u have cause for apologizing. apology accepted.

ur right police officers aren't perfect, but u shouldn't apologize for them. they are sorry all on their own. sorry sorry sorry worthless excuses for human beings with either underdeveloped or a total lack of morality. they do what they do because someone else told them to do it. not because it's the right thing, not because of their sense of right and wrong. they are dependent on someone else to tell them what's right and wrong.

the sorry cops i've had the misfortune of dealing with have for the most part been abusive types who have let their authority swell their heads. in one instance i was pulled over for riding a bike without a headlite on at nitetime. the guy turns me around has me interlace my fingers and cranks my arms upwards as he searches me, then considers asking me my permission if it's ok to search me. i tell him no it isn't he continues with his search anyway. then he calls in my license to his department to check for warrants and whatnot, this happened in california, i live in texas... the only things that came back were my texas warrants the california system was down for some reason that particular nite so he couldn't pull up any info on me. he's among the more pleasant types i meet whenever i'm accosted by the police. such a cheery fellow, and then he wanted to make small talk about the marine corps and why i was wearing a hat with the marine corps logo. askin me questions about the marines n all that. i told him i am a marine. he asks me where i was stationed etc. and seemed to know something or another about my duty station and then i guess he thought he would try to "test" me like to see if i was telling the truth about the unit i said i was attached to, like i have reason to lie about something like that. and then he wanted to talk to me like we were buddies or something. no police is my friend. especially not that guy.

Actually, I have no interest in spawning a thread from this one.. My point was that was a whole other topic and I wouldn't go into detail b/c it would change the topic...

I completely agree with this. There are good and bad in all professions....but that doesn't make them all bad. I have family and friends that are cops....and they are good cops too. They get blamed for doing their job by those that won't own up. My son wants to be a cop. He wants to start out as a jailer while getting his criminal law degree. I assure you he is not on power trips or anything like that. He wants to at least try to make a difference

yellowrose, i'm very sorry to hear. my sympathy.

I don't think sympathy is necessary.. More like CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

I was married to a "cop" for 17 yrs who later (after we divorced) became a sheriff.. He was a very nice man and a wonderful father but became obcessed with his work and didn't have time for me anymore so I got out..he died in office.. end of story...
