Judge Dred FTW.


I've been pulled over many times and let go because of who I am. It helps sometimes. I've never really dealt with that many bad cops, but I didnt appreciate that they took like 3 hours to show up to my house when it got broken into.

My neighbor even chased the kid down and they got away. I think if I ever have to call something like that I'll say "I think he also may have a gun..."

Blame it on a cell phone or wallet when they catch the dood.

By let go because of who you are, do you mean because you were former military? Because a lot of my family members get away with a lot of shit (mainly minor vehicle offenses) because they are in/or were in the military

That's the problem around here. You call 911 for an emergency and they never show up. The only times they show up is if an ambulance is needed, or there's reports of guns involved. Other then that dialing 911 is futile

Diplomatic Immunity h:


No seriously, yea the USMC. And half the time I throw out a Semper Fi when they let me go and put my hand out in a gesture of a hand shake and they take it and smile.

Amazing if you ask me.

cops usually let cops off too

my uncle is a inactive cop in grosse pointe, a suburb of detroit. every time my cousin gets in trouble he pulls out the badge and its all forgotten.

I'm also going to be a FireFighter in Miami Dade pretty soon (hopefully)


I know there is brotherhood there too... but I wonder if the cops will take that into account as well?

I know this for certain, this guy I partied with back in my hometown got pulled over by the sheriff for being drunk and speeding... underage mind you, however, daddy was the head of the sheriffs department so the punishment he received was a slap to the back of the head and being grounded for 6 months :down:
