Many cops do their jobs, and other love to abuse their authority... I've been pulled over for speeding and gotten JUST a speeding ticket, but there have been days where I have been pulled over and harassed for NO FUCKING REASON. It does sound fishy, but I was going out for food, with my twin sister (I am a fraternal twin. Yes a boy and a girl, it does exist), at 1AM, dressed in a wife beater and jeans -no shoes- ( ever heard of a drive thru? pick up food and go home), with 350 dollars cash in my hand(its called TIP, I work for a fucking restaurant), and my mom was working at a night club at the time, so the pig couldnt talk to my mom...(everyone has a job, too bad it wasnt a 9-5 job...) He pulled me out of the car in nothing but a wife beater and jeans, in 40 degree weather, had my sister and I interrogated by 4 police officers, and made me freeze my ass off for about 2 hours FOR NOTHING!!! Fucking pig let me go because after harassing me, he said I didnt give him any attitude or any bullshit for being a 16 year old dickhead, and that both mine and my sister story matched by every detail.
Then 3 days later I get pulled over by 7 patrol cars for "recklessly jumping into a traffic lane" WTF speed limit was 35, i needed to make a left turn and the next car was at least 100 yards away, that was more than enough time for me to get in place and to get to the speed limit without causing any trouble for the person behind me... There was at least 10 cops there... 2 cars in front of me, 2 to my right, 1 to my left, and 2 behind me... 10 cops for one kid WTF!!!
The cops that abuse you are the ones that give real police officers a bad name...
