you my friend don't live in a town with cops that are way way over funded. We have a cop on every street corner here in Los Altos. You get ticketed for no front license plate, going the speed limit downtown (even the speed limit is apparently too fast...), ticketed for going 5 miles over.
Stupid stuff like that. Yet when idiots from my high school are drunk driving or partying hard they are no where to be found... The cops in my town waste their time on stupid priorities.
I don't have anything against cops in general, but the cops in my town, and the cop that dinanm3 encountered aren't the best of the breed. Besides when I call 911, the firemen are the first to show at the scene anyway...

you give him shit about having better things to do because you assume he pulled you over because of the type of car you were driving
you draw the conclusion that the cop was "a bad one"
wtf is wrong with people? |
You've obviously never been to california... Here 80% of the cars don't have license plates. Many BMW dealerships don't even deliver cars with front plates any more. If you want a front plate you have to ask them for it...
I'd have a hard time justifying as a cop that the majority of the cars on the road are 'stolen' at any given time...
