FUCK THE POPO!!!

[Suckalot1]

How many others feel like this? There's a lot of shitbag piggies, fuck 'em.

If you feel me join in and say, "FUCK THE POPO!!!"

[rockabilly]

Damn the Man!!

[JHANIAH L0VE]

if there were no piggies YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK DOWN THE STREET. or even buy a loaf of bread.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

now thank the popo and the aluminati FOR NOT THROWING YOUR ASS IN A FEMA CAMP!!!!!!!!!!

[SarahG]

now thank the popo and the aluminati FOR NOT THROWING YOU ASS IN A FEMA CAMP!!!!!!!!!!

That's not something to be thankful for!

That's like walking up to a random guy and saying "thank you.... for not raping me."

Or going to random gun owner and saying "thank you... for not shooting me."

It's a fallacy.

Before I agree or disagree with you, I suppose I'd like to know what about the POPO causes you to take a position like this. Is there something you want to do or something that you did that gave rise to your comments? Did someone tune you up? Did you get busted?

When I was younger, I probably would have sympathized with comments like yours. I can't bring myself to do that anymore because I've seen too many situations in Phila and NYC where career criminals and thugs take out an officer just for sport. That's too fucked up.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

THE FURNACES AT FEMA ARE NOT COLD. THEYRE HOTTT!!! SO BEHAVE YOURSELF.

[giovanni_hotel]

Cops suck, for sure.

But if every cop in Chicago and NY went on strike for a week, ah, what a lovely time that would be!!!

Cops = necessary evil

[hotvegasguy26]

i know ALOT of cops on a personal level and i can honestly say i've never met more shitbags in my life ....all the cops i know are the biggest hypocrites ever... they all go out, get fucked up, start shit with people cuz they can't handle their alcohol and they feel invincible cuz they have a badge, then drive home fucked up... a couple cops i know personally smoke weed on a regular and they work for the DRUG TASK FORCE.... now, dont get me wrong, i have nothing against people who smoke weed and drink and maybe get a lil rowdy sometimes, cuz im one of em.....but when you're out arresting people for the same shit you're doin every weekend you're just a piece of shit in my eyes

You mean like that cop in memphis that bashed that poor girl's face in while using handcuffs as brass knuckles "for sport"?

Bad stuff happens all the time, sometimes cops are the victims, sometimes they're the criminals.

[Fox]

I know all cops aren't the same and I try to give them the benefit of the doubt (that's what I'd want) but I just don't trust them. Sometimes I have some respect for them, sometimes I feel like "fuck the popo" it just depends what day you catch me on.

Cops around this way have been known to be corrupt and I've seen them do some shady shit.

[wadeintheslade]

I met a cop once, he told me that the police force in my area actually closely resembled the television show Reno 911.

I don't feel safe in my city any more.

I have always wondered what the real Reno PD thinks of that show.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

now dont get me wrong, i dont agree with A-LOT of things they do. but would you rather live in anarchy??? i think not.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

so in life i am thankful for the good cops and try to AVOID the bad ones.

[SarahG]

now dont get me wrong, i dont agree with A-LOT of things they do. but would you rather in anarchy??? i think not.

Why not? Worked perfectly well in Spain.


That is, until the RCP & the fascists got involved.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

now would you rather start riots and have them bring in MARTIAL LAW? hell no!

[SarahG]

now would you rather start riots and have them bring in MARTIAL LAW? hell no!

Martial law isn't anarchy.

Martial law is the government being scared of anarchy.

The difference between a riot and a revolution is whether or not it succeeds.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

never said it was... NOW THINK ABOUT IT... if you take away police, there would be nothing safe about america, well maybey the forests

[JHANIAH L0VE]

it wouldnt be safe to walk outside, you'd have to board up your windows, BARACADE YOUR HOUSE and gear up for WAR.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

OH AND GAY BASHING,,, i can just imagine.

[jjhill]

CPD sucks, an example of them is Carl Winslow.

[LuciaMiel]

i'm tired a tha muthafuckin jacket

[Quiet Reflections]

i have alot of police officer friends and cant say that i hate all cops but there are some bad ones that are no credit to the uniform

I hope the cops shoot you....And I sincerely mean that.

[Suckalot1]

if there were no piggies YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK DOWN THE STREET. or even buy a loaf of bread.
Believe me, I'd walk down the street just fine, agreed it probably wouldn't work out the best for everyone though. It's not like these pigs protect everyone from everything, plenty of crime happens right under their piggie noses. I've seen people nearly beat to death while police would drive by without stopping. Most of these pigs won't even go to most parts and a lot of people can't walk down the block safely anyway. Also, most of the cops are just some fat pigs who will get their ass kicked when they try to handle somebody. They're a bunch of nerds with a badge and a gun. There's a bunch of out of shape, stupid, fat piggies. \ They just sit around giving traffic tickets all day and fucking up everyones money for dumbass shit that they sit around looking for.

I'm all for America, fuck the government.
My story - Cop gave me 3 tickets today for nothing. Careless driving, unsafe lane change, and brakelight was out. All 3 for just unsafe lane change, which couldn't have possibly been unsafe. I've got many other stories where the dumb pigs just look for problems. They're out to make everyone criminals and that's what they do, when they're on the road or whatever. They're trained to think that everyone is doing something wrong and a violator, believe me.

Just because they were lucky enough to be chosen for a great job, that doesn't mean they should be given so much credit. Plenty of others would be more than glad to have the job and would do it much more justly. So don't kiss their asses just because they were lucky enough to be chosen for a great job.

[jjhill]

I know me and suckalot have our differences, but I have to agree with him on this one. My boy got robbed and almost beating to death and he was about 30 feet from a police station. They only go after the petty stuff. Never mind all the senseless murders, gangs, and all that stuff

[JHANIAH L0VE]

again those could have been avoided! stay out of unsafe spots, unless you can hold your own :) dont start shitt and blame the pigs for not SAVING you!!!

[jjhill]

again those could have been avoided! stay out of unsafe spots, unless you can hold your own :) dont start shitt and blame the pigs for not SAVING you!!!

If you referring to the situation with my boy, he actually lives in the area. It's suppose to be a safe area cuz the cops stay over there. The governor of the town also stays across the street. He's not in a gang or any of that. So...yea. The same police facility, put a guy in jail for a speeding ticket with murderers. Needless to say the guy got his ass whipped on camera, the cops did nothing and in return he got a million dollars.

[JHANIAH L0VE]

no i, i wasnt.

[sugdaddie69]

Growing up in Chicago i never met a cop i trusted,except maybe officer friendly in grade school,and i had my doubts about him.Cops gay bash just as much,if not more than the public.They get drunk and beat your ass off duty,get sober beat your ass on duty,run over and kill people drunk,make up tickets for their quota,profile drivers
feel they are above the very laws they are paid to enforce.,...Fuck 'em

[JHANIAH L0VE]

You sound really ignorant right now. Those "unsafe spots", are far more common than you think and why don't the cops patrol over there? Stop making them out to be some great people, there's good cops that do stuff to really protect people and do actual police work, and then there's assholes who abuse their power and look to fuck over whoever they want.

Don't start shit and ask cops to save me? I'm talking about minding your own business walking down the street, maybe with an Ipod on. I guess your answer would be, "you shouldn't walk down the street with an Ipod then." Where are the piggies? Waiting around for people to call them with a problem and then they'll respond to it 20 minutes later, because they're busy fucking people over with traffic tickets. Anybody can get shot, stabbed, robbed, killed, or beat to death on any street and the police aren't there to "SAVE" anyone. They're job is to protect and serve, let a group of guys come and fuck you up, see if them dumb pigs can find the guys who did it and be able to serve or protect you in anyway. If I have a problem I could call whoever, my father, and he'll come twice as fast, with twice as many people, and twice as many guns. But, we need to rely on some out-of-shape punk-police to respond hours later and not even do shit.

Punk police just look for problems and look to make every person a criminal, that's why our jails are filled with non-violent crime offenders!

[JHANIAH L0VE]

i sound ignorant? BUT YOU ARE IGNORANT!!!

[JohnnyWalkerBlackLabel]

shut your ass up woman!!!!!!!!!!!!

much as I've seen you bounce those beautiful implants in front of NYPD

hehe

proceed

[Suckalot1]

If you sound ignorant, chances are that you're ignorant. Now I wasn't here to put out any insults, but since you feel the need to insult me, please tell me how I'm at all ignorant? If you even know what ignorant means.... maybe you meant intelligent?

Just because they were lucky enough to be chosen for a great job


What, they were standing in line and someone said, "Hey you, wanna be cop?"


Plenty of others would be more than glad to have the job and would do it much more justly.

Really, then where the fuck are they?
Why haven't they signed up for the job?
Why haven't *you*?

[Suckalot1]

Jhania obviously hasn't got a clue. I have one question if you don't mind me asking, were you born or raised in another country other than the U.S.?

Jericho-LMAO- There's a pile of applicants on the list. No, you don't just stand on a line, you take the civil service tests and depending on how you score, what race you are, and if you know anybody, your selected from a long list.

I really don't know what your point is and I don't mean to shut you down, but you seem clueless also.
There's guys who have low test scores, but because of their race they're selected over the guys who scored better. Then they go to the police academy or whatever else. Also the way they do it now is some fools go to school and take some bs classes and they get a good shot at a job.

Where are these guys? We're talking about 100,000's of people. Some are maybe unemployed, working other jobs, and/or just still sitting on the list.

Why haven't I taken the test? Because I wouldn't be able to stand working with a bunch of people who get their rocks off by fucking over people.

[trish]

Aw, did somebody get passed over for a job? Sorry, but you do suckalot.

[Jericho]

Jericho-LMAO- There's a pile of applicants on the list. No, you don't just stand on a line


Sorry, i forgot...use of irony...my bad.



Why haven't I taken the test? Because I wouldn't be able to stand working with a bunch of people who get their rocks off by fucking over people.

So, like i said, you're prepared to come on here and whine about it, but not prepared to do anything about it.

[lahabra1976]

dam I thought this topic was going to be about anal sex, not the police in chicago...how disappointing

[JeniferTS]

there are a lot of popo's i'd like to fuck, hehe.

[Suckalot1]

Hey trish, take this dick and stfu. ; )

[slip969]

"FUCK THE POPO!!!" I 100% agree. I think you have to be a truly fucked up and power hungry individual to become a cop.

As for all of the "necessary evil" comments. Not really the case. I particular like the quote "Government can easily exist without laws, but law cannot exist without government."

Early mankind survived somehow without this preconceived notion of government and I for one would sure like to return and truly be free.

[trish]

Suckalot begs
Hey trish, take this dick and stfu. ; )Wait, I need my tweezers.

[Suckalot1]

Again with her wits, just forget about it and GTFO.

FUCK THE POPO!!!

[trish]

Early mankind survived somehow without this preconceived notion of government

Early mankind survived by living together in communes and tribes. There was plenty you were expected to do for the common good. If you refused you risked ostracism and worse.

[trish]

Again with her wits, just forget about it and GTFO.

FUCK THE POPO!!!

Sure thing, I already forgot all about the itty pitty thing.

LOVE THE POPO!!!

Ahem, excuse the interruption but do you think you could point out maybe one or even two instances where "Government easily exists without laws?..." I guess if you count Lord of the Flies or Peter Pan, you might have a point but I think you might otherwise be on to something bigger than that. Solopsisms aside... perhaps a concrete and sustainable example?

[Quinn]

Popo? What are you five years old? Quit whining like a teenage girl and deal with it. We've all had our run-ins with bad cops. Get over it already.

-Quinn

[DC]

I agree alot of cops abuse there powers and hide behind there badges but anarchy would be a mess...

[Evilhomer]

I have alot of close friends that are cops and there is an us against you attitude. It really is like a fraternity. I love em and they would do anything for me and PBA cards get you out of alot of shit. but the feeling of entitlement is amazing...Alot of them do think they are superior to the general public and alot of shit doesnt pertain to them. What happened to serve and protect the public :) On that note, Most of the cops out there are great guys but there are def to many douche bag cops and unfortunately those are the ones we seem to run into at the wrong times.

[NYBURBS]

There are shit head cops (plenty of them), but there are also plenty of decent ones too. Part of the problem is that some people detest any cop right off the bat while some others mindlessly worship them. Neither position is rational since cops are just every day people with the same qualities and flaws as the rest of us.

Another thing to remember is that they are enforcing laws that are passed by others. Perhaps your anger would sometimes be better directed at the people that actually made the law.

With that said let me give everyone a few basic rules for dealing with the police in the US:

1) Be respectful. You can disagree with them, but cursing or name calling will only make the situation worse. Also never physically challenge them; causing injury to a cop is a felony in most if not all states.

2) Most states require that you identify yourself if asked, but aside from that you don't have to answer any questions.

3) Never give permission to search your property. Let them get a warrant, or they might do it anyway without one. However, you can challenge the search later in court. Just make sure you are clear that you're not giving permission for a search.

4) Ask if you are free to leave. If they tell you no (or say you are under arrest) tell them that you wish to exercise your right to an attorney and to not answer questions.

LOL at tweezers.

[tsmandy]

Lets see, early childhood memories, my uncle (a cop) trying to scare me and nearly drowning me in a pool laughing his ass off holding me under the water while I screamed and tried to break free. Same uncle driving 90 down a city street in the middle of the day through school zones laughing his drunk ass off.

My last day in Philly my apartment got raided by 7 plainclothes officers who were looking for someone who didn't even live in my building. They woke me up at 5 in the morning, trashed my apartment, said some really nasty shit to me and my girlfriend, almost shot my upstairs neighbors dog, all on a shoplifting warrant.

My friends brother was shot and killed by the police for holding a hammer.

I was accused of pimping out a girl by 2 officers after one of my last movie shoots, they accosted us and accused me of all sorts of ridiculous shit, including human trafficking....

and I'm a white girl. I can't even imagine what other TS must experience with dirtbag cops.

My best friend is a cop. Throughout high school and university he was part of my "good friends" crowd. Raised well, a devout Christian, very intelligent, very fit and not a uselss fat fuck, doesn't drink or do drugs. Now he is servicing Edmonton, Alberta, and is truly one of those rare "good guys."

But for the most part, cops are fucking dumb people, just confoundingly dumb. Being pulled over for minor infractions is the best chance at free entertainment because you can see firsthand just how fucking stupid they are, and how hilarious the whole process is of which they have to abide by. Cops are a very mentally retarded breed of people for the most part and should just be ignored. LOL at cops.

fred I think his post is the best yet... its 100 percent correct and very informative..

Refering to Silcc's video-the individual speaking to the police officer showed a threat when he got in the face of the cop(big mistake) He is not going to get PAID like he was exclaiming he will probably get off with community service...The moment you get in front of a cops face and talk trash thats the moment you lost...Especially since its on camera.

[Legallylarge]

The problem as I see it is cops deal with the dregs of society on a daily, routine basis.

Sadly they become jaded and assume that ever person they deal with will be a dirtbag. Combine that with the general power-tripping most have, and most are not the sharpest tools in the shed and you have someone arriving at your door/pulling you over who will have a chip on their shoulder.

I'm sure there are good ones out there but sadly the a-hole cop outnumbers the nice, decent ones.

So when you get pulled over or whatever, if you're in a pissy mood you'll set off a ticking time bomb.

I'm not a fan of cops but we do need them. So long as you're respectful and show them you're not an idiot, you should be okay.

Case in point... I have HID headlights in my car. Most are not used to how bright they are. I had some idiot play the high-beam game with me on the highway and finally I had enough so I sped up to get away from him (I 'could' have slowed down, I guess - but I'd eventually catch he guy again)... and the popo got me on radar and chased me down.

I respectfully explained why... asked for advice on what to do and a $350 ticket and three points was reduced to $50 and no points.

I'm running my HIDs in projectors at 4300K so it's all OEM and legal.

Some idiots think I'm running hi-beams all the time, but I'm not. It's just that 4300K is the whitest and brightest temperature.

And the cop had no issue with my headlights... just my speeding. ;)

I'm running my HIDs in projectors at 4300K so it's all OEM and legal.

Some idiots think I'm running hi-beams all the time, but I'm not. It's just that 4300K is the whitest and brightest temperature.

And the cop had no issue with my headlights... just my speeding. ;)my bikes were purple :D Bikes have no law limitations to my knowledge.they want you to be seen....
My cars go blue. 8000k....if you dont have bi-xenon I suggest getting them your low beam is hi beam and then your hibeam is UBERBEAMING lol :D I only speed in really fast cars or on my bike if im in like a camry imma do speed limit.

This is way off topic, but FWIW, 8000K is blue, so I assume you're not concerned about how many lumens you're throwing down the road? You see, with HIDs, the higher the temperature, the less lumens you project, meaning the less light you make = the less you can see down the road.

At 4300K, as noted, my lights are the whitest temperature and also you cannot buy brighter bulbs than 4300K. I can sunburn the necks of drivers I come up behind. ;)

The temperatures above 5000K look cool, but are inefficient as hell. I do a lot of driving on highways without street lights, so seeing as far down the road is of paramount importance to me.

Early mankind survived somehow without this preconceived notion of government

Early mankind survived by living together in communes and tribes. There was plenty you were expected to do for the common good. If you refused you risked ostracism and worse.

You do realize that only works if there's nothing but wilderness and carnivorous animals surrounding you, right Trish? Not to mention if you get ostracized now, you can just move to the next suburb over. While that may have working back in 20,000 BC when there were only like 20K humans on the planet, I'm guessing a similar model can't work with 6 billions lunatics running around.

if there were no piggies YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK DOWN THE STREET. or even buy a loaf of bread.

My story - Cop gave me 3 tickets today for nothing. Careless driving, unsafe lane change, and brakelight was out. All 3 for just unsafe lane change, which couldn't have possibly been unsafe. I've got many other stories where the dumb pigs just look for problems. They're out to make everyone criminals and that's what they do, when they're on the road or whatever. They're trained to think that everyone is doing something wrong and a violator, believe me.

Just because they were lucky enough to be chosen for a great job, that doesn't mean they should be given so much credit. Plenty of others would be more than glad to have the job and would do it much more justly. So don't kiss their asses just because they were lucky enough to be chosen for a great job.

Why nobody else picked up on this is beyond me. You're just pissed because you got caught. You probably left out the part where you cut him off in traffic. Then got in the cop's face and started to yell and scream at him about how he's a fat, stupid piggy. Or a nerd. That's hilarious. You're exhibit #1 why some/many cops are pricks. They have to deal with asshats like you on a daily basis. And you think that is a great job? You couldn't pay me enough to be a cop. It's one of the hardest jobs in the world. Why do you think so many drink? The imbecility of your posts here is breathtaking. God, this thread is such an epic fail, I can't believe I'm wasting my time typing this.
