The Lake.

Lake Travis.

Hundreds of boaters. Swimmers. Sun-bathers.

And criminals.

Somewhere out there, there's a Chicago Bears running back who is just asking for it.

I'll give it to him.

My partner and I.

Nice :laugh2:

The point of that post that you didnt understand is that people DO think LIKE YOU do.

Got it.

oh i don't understand the subtle hints and tricks over the internet and the sarcasm so i just take pretty much everything at face value so try to be more direct.

D101 another reason for carrying two sets of keys. Wow what a story.

I do now!!!. It was a mistake on their part I had just bought the car after getting out of high school but the title of the car was still in the name of the person that I bought it from. Once everything came out I was given an apology by the arresting officer.

I have been handcuffed a handfull of times. The most recent was when I was helping my wife at her school after hours. One of the new teachers had set the alarm without checking to make sure all of the teachers had signed out so when we went to copy some papers we tripped the silent alarm. About 20 minutes later on our way back to her room, we walked around a corner to 5 cops with their guns trained on us. While two cops candcuffed us, the others kept their guns on us. I had to tell my wife to shut up because this was the first time she had ever been patted down and she was throwing a fit. If you are smart, you don't do that to people with guns aimed at you. They wouldn't allow her to go to the car and get her school badge as proof, so we had to wait for the principal to come before they released us.

Turns out that about a week earlier they were fired upon by some punks who had busted into another school to steal computers. The public schools have computers from teh 90s, I don't know why they would choose there to steal.

Thats exactly why officers do that. Its for your safety and theirs. If you are Innocent it will all come out in the end. In the mean time just let them do their jobs

No problem. My High School was in a small town in the middle of Houston called Spring Valley and these cops were at our school every day. So growing up I had similar feelings about cops as some here do now.

However I started having an understanding of a few things which is anytime you encounter a cop show respect for the badge meaning don't jump out of your car with an attitude all that does it put the cop on the defensive right off the bat and it goes downhill from there.

If you have a complaint then tell it to the judge or call the internal affairs office of the police department but getting into it with a cop on the streets is a battle you will not win. I think if some put themselves in the shoes of the police and what they face I think many would have a better understanding of them.

thats not true. our legal system would rather have 5 innocent ppl go to jail than allow one guilty person go free.

Did you not read his post? He said once the principle got there they were cleared. How many innocent people do you really believe are in prison? Give me a break. I have heard it all

When I worked in the prison everyone of them said they were innocent.

The running joke was they were innocent of everything they were guilty of.

Just enjoying my peaceful day, when I was visited by the Mighty Thor, Norse God of Thunder.

Give me a break. Why not just shoot them?

Quite frankly removing my liberty for no reason especially when I am unarmed is not looking out for my safety. Thats just cops being gung ho.

When the person in question says they have identification in the car and not allowing them to go get it thats just them being pricks. I don't care what went down elsewhere, there is no excuse for that.

Similar justification is used to beat restrained people. They continued to point their guns at them. To what end. Shoot them if they try to get away?

I asked Thor, "have you come to join me on my yellow pontoon boat for an enjoyable day?" Thor responded, "Verily". Though his accent was heavy, I deduced that he was looking for "Vera Lee", who was well known in our area as a woman who liked to have a good time. It was amazing that word of her exploits made their way up to Asgard and found the ear of the Mighty Thor.

Vera was delighted to be picked up on my yellow pontoon and meet Thor. Thor and Vera quickly kicked me off of the boat and left me by the shore as I watched them travel out into the water for a no doubt intellectual conversation on the meaning of life. As I watched them depart on my beloved boat, I thought to myself, what a wonderful day.

Just shoot them? You have issues my friend. You do not allow a suspect to go out to their vehicle until your sure it is safe. And from what he was saying his wife was pretty mouthy and I am sure that threw up some red flags in the officers minds. Your probably one of those people who think the cops should just shoot the gun out of the guys hand instead of shoot him. LOL
