Cops have a terribly over bloated ego and warped sense of the world. They view EVERYONE as a criminal and only let some of us off with a warning. They are the temporary judge and jury on the street. Why the hell do we have to pay $150 speeding tickets for going a few miles over the speed limit?!? Is law enforcement in cahoots with car companies that use analog speedometers? --- On Wed, 3/31/10, Alan Wolfe <alan.wolfe@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Alan Wolfe <alan.wolfe@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [project1dev] Re: OT: microsoft, secretly our friend?

Long story short, he was peppersprayed, beaten (it took a cop around his middle and one on each arm to take him down), stomped a couple times neo nazi style when he was on the ground, and then arrested for resisting arrest. He was in jail for 2 days i think and when they took him to court, they dropped the charges before the trial since they didn't actually have anything to try him with. good times :P On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 12:01 PM, eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: all joking aside though, im right there with you Cid, but i'd add more than just lawyers to the list of people dragged out of their overpriced stuffy offices :) On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 2:58 PM, eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: you dont like our justice system? man, cops have never been anything but nice and helpful for me, i dont understand where the anti-gov sentiments come from ;) On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 2:55 PM, CiD <screamingdazeez@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Smart man. Something interesting is military law is different than civilian law under the same country umbrella of power. I do not like our justice system and think lawyers should be dragged out of their overpriced, stuffy offices and stripped down to their skivvies and slapped with wet towels until they are severely red bodied and sent home to their mommas for instructions on how to properly share their milk chocolate with the rest of the class! --- On Wed, 3/31/10, Alan Wolfe <alan.wolfe@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Alan Wolfe <alan.wolfe@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [project1dev] Re: OT: microsoft, secretly our friend?
