And all of the people you listed would say the same thing.....well maybe not the rapist or the murderer......

Could be that he was part of a traffic enforcement team and thought writing eqiupment tickets rather than moving violations would be better? I'll take the equipment ticket over a moving violation any day.

The long screw in the end caps would stop any night sticks. And a long screw with a washer welded on it can be adjustable for the noise level in cop town.

My buddy asks him; " If you weren't a pig would you wear a f**king helmet?"

That's when the wheels fell off........
Ha! That one made me chuckle! Your buddy, hopefully, learned a valuable lesson that day!

Mostly positive comments from the posters, I'm impressed!

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Cops are people too,there's good and bad.I've known cops who were good men,and Decent people and have the utmost respect for them.but,then OTH,there are those who chose that profession just for an excuse to bully people and to see how big of a dick they can be,I think some are in it just for the power trip.Sometimes,it's best just to ignore the second kind when ya see em if ya can.

Getting a 'tude' with cops, while momentarily tempting, always makes things worse, and a decent behavior can improve the situation immensely.

Years ago, on the first really warm spring day, me and a couple of friends were cruising open country on secondary roads....and only seeing about 1 car every 30 minutes or so. We passed a state trooper parked on the edge of the road, facing the opposite direction we were traveling in (maybe doing 5 mph over the speed limit). I'm in the rear, and watching the trooper in my mirrors....and I see him turn around and head after us, running the old blue light special.

I start pulling over, as did the rider in the middle, and the lead rider (one of my closest friends, and a guy I'll never be able to ride as well as) just keeps going, blissfully unaware of the trooper behind him. We pull back onto the road and follow to watch what's gonna happen. The trooper is following our friend about 2 feet behind his rear fender, they're both doing about 65 mph, and this goes on for about a mile until the trooper blasts him with the siren.

That gets his attention, but what do we see down the road? A couple more state patrol crown vics, on both sides of the road, with the troopers standing in back of their vehicles...signaling us to pull over. He'd set up a road block for us.

The trooper from the pursuit car...a big hoss of a guy....walks over, obviously as irritated as hell...and the first words out of my friend's mouth were ..."officer, I plead guilty to having a head full of ****". All of the troopers grinned, they checked licenses, and ignored that the lead rider had an obvious non-DOT helmet (a big deal to the state patrol in this state). No tickets, no ***-chewing...just a simple "be careful out there". Coulda ended much worse.
