And the VICTIM would have to pursue those charges - the officer could not make a misdemeanor arrest on scene for assault unless it was s domestic relationship. And these days, even VICTIM's will fight with the LEO to keep someone FROM BEING arrested. Go figure. Call the police and expect them to do NOTHING.

This. I was stopped just yesterday in Tuscumbia, doing 55 in a 35. The PO had every right to ticket me (and more than one, I might add). I was respectful and courteous, and so was he, and I was let off with a warning. So, not all cops are "complete A-Holes".

quote:Man kicks out police car windshield after arrest
Police said a 33-year-old Sheffield man who is accused of being involved in a Sunday morning parking lot fight at Sandbar Lounge kicked out the back window of a police car after he was arrested on several misdemeanor charges.
The charges include resisting arrest, second-degree criminal mischief, public intoxication and disorderly conduct, officials said.
Sheffield Police Chief Greg Ray said the incident occurred just before 2 a.m. in the parking lot where reports indicate about 40 people had gathered to watch the fight. The club is on Hatch Boulevard.
Ray said when officers got to the scene they had to use chemical spray to clear the crowd and separate the two people involved in the fight.
Ray said officers had to use spray to subdue the man, who lives in the 200 block of Terrace Street, Sheffield.
“Once he was in custody, he was handcuffed and placed in the patrol car,” Ray said. “While he was handcuffed, he lays down in the seat and kicks the back window out of the patrol car.”
Ray said it will cost $250 to replace the window

Read this part carefully, because I don't want you to miss it. I WAS IN THE WRONG. 20 MPH over the limit. Qualifies for multiple tickets. Which of my rights was it I was supposed to assert? I was wrong, I treated the officer respectfully (as I should have), and he let me go. If you would have handled that situation differently, maybe you DESERVE to have the cop be an "A-Hole".

My question is...what right does the cop have allowing you to endanger others lives just because you were nice?
And secondly...why do you think you are above the law? Do you not have respect for others safety?

Firstly, what did you want the cop to do, execute me? I said he gave me a warning. He could have given me multiple tickets, he chose not to. Does that mean any fewer lives were in danger, because he gave me the warning and not a citation?
I don't think I'm above the law. I was clearly not paying attention, and was doing 55 MPH. As I stated, I deserved a ticket. Had I gotten one, it still wouldn't have have made the cop an "A-Hole".

It certainly makes you one. Don't endanger others. Interesting that the Cop, when in the position to actually prevent criminal behavior, lets you go on about your reckless way.
They're worthless.

quote:Actually, Opie, mere contact with police is enough to deter some people from breaking traffic laws. For example, I pull over a man who has never had a ticket in his many years of driving for speeding. He is apologetic and knows he did wrong. He is kind and admits fault. In many cases like this a warning is the appropriate enforcement action. If they re-offend then you write him a ticket. On the other hand, when someone is automatically defensive and accuses you of being an "a-hole" then it is obvious a kind word and a warning will not prevent his future traffic violations and a ticket may be in order. An open mind goes a long way.
