Don't illegally park and you wont get a ticket. What does someone else not getting one have to do with the fact that you broke the law?

I remember my first experience with a cop !




There I was...5 years old....and LOST ! (okay I was only three blocks from home....but hey I was scared !) Where was I...oh yeah...5 years old & LOST. Cryin' like there's no tomorrow and someone just told me that Santa isn't real !!! When what to my watering eyes should appear.....? But DA MAN in his rockin' squad car ! He put me in the front passenger seat of that thing and drove me around until I found my house. I remember lookin' at all of those lights, switches and that SHOTGUN and thinkin' "This is waaaay cooler than my dads' Army Helicopter ! Screw the Army...I'm gonna be a COP!" Still ended up in the Army but became 5OH just the same.

i think the public need to realize there aren't (many) cops who are out to get 'certain' people. Cops are humans and unfortunately can be just like any other person. Customer service people can be great or jerks, and the same can be said for any line of work. When I do illegal things I dont blame the cop who catches me. Not biting your head off, but these people put their buts on the line for us.

LOL....devlchylde....that's great ! Wait...let me get this straight. So you're saying that cops are HUMANS? With feelings, emotions, fears, dreams and such...like real people? That can't be true cause if it were then we would have to realize that cops can make mistakes on the job just like everyone else. AND that unfortunately, it might cause someone to lose their life if that happens. See the way I figure it, cops are supposta be automotons...robots...with no emotions at all. So that they enforce the laws evenly across the board and instead of cutting someone a break for 6mph over the limit....they hammer them with a speeding ticket and jack their insurance and make em lose a days' pay for court. See that way...society could go on believing that cops are heartless idiots who are on power trips cause they weren't held enough as children.



oh who am I kidding....? I love being a cop ! Stupid me; I believed the brochure when it said I could make a difference in my community and make it safe for the children. what a dunce !

I just can't stand it when I hear crap like "stupid cop gave me a ticket for giving my friend a little bottle of whiskey." This coming from a family member (not blood relation, thank golly) who gave whiskey to a 16 year old right outside the liquor store during a large city event . "Dang cops have nothing better to do than to sit around and look for drunks." If that cop hadnt taken the bottles of hard liquor from them then there would have been a pair of idiots, pee-poor drunk driving home on the interstate.

5_OH I cant really tell if you are being mean or joking with me. Sarcasm and inflections seem lost in translation.

LOL....I am joking ! I am a cop and I love to hear people complain about getting "harassed" by the cops or whatever their major cop-plaint of the day is...and yet their the first ones to call the police if some social misfit takes advantage of them. Course; their the type that is never happy no matter who it is they are involved with...could be a cop...a waittress...a dentist...doesn't really matter. There is no shortage of idiots in the world and Thank the Lord for it...cause I wouldn't have a job ! Least not one that I love as much as being a cop.

Well thank god your not writing the ticket, the punctuation and grammar police would throw it out before the judge even saw it
