Carrying a woman into the ER doesn't really scream "made up excuse" beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 21/06/2010 12:24:30 AM

Cops are people who work long hours at all hours of the day dealing with the dregs of society, only to be turned around and spat on for doing so. In that light, excuse me for not feeling particularly empathetic for the miniscule subset of mistakes made by police officers when trying to do their jobs.


Cops are people who work long hours of the day not doing very much. When something "big" DOES happen, like someone refusing to pull over, or really anything more serious than a speeding ticket, they tend to get arrogant and self-important.
I amuse myself.

he clearly wasn't just "making up an excuse" though. - 21/06/2010 10:59:13 AM 1166 Views
unfortunately the law is on the officer's side, no matter whether he acted correctly - 21/06/2010 07:09:13 AM 956 Views
well this is,really, a drastically different situation - 21/06/2010 08:11:39 AM 1004 Views
the point is, the officer is not required to show compassion, only enforce the law - 21/06/2010 11:53:51 PM 867 Views
no. a officer is NOT only required to hold up the law. - 22/06/2010 12:28:05 AM 879 Views
i'm not disagreeing with you - 22/06/2010 01:25:43 AM 987 Views
except in this case (you seem to be ignoring this) - 22/06/2010 01:35:21 AM 942 Views
At the very least the officer should have let medical personnel take the woman in for treatment - 21/06/2010 02:56:30 PM 914 Views
But... - 21/06/2010 04:58:06 PM 1016 Views
"The fact is that the man broke the law" is nonsense. That's what judgment is for. - 21/06/2010 05:30:26 PM 973 Views
But you can get pulled over for going 1 mile over. - 21/06/2010 05:59:51 PM 993 Views
the thing is... - 22/06/2010 12:29:43 AM 867 Views
But then he's have to use a cell phone while driving! Another crime! *NM* - 22/06/2010 02:41:51 AM 495 Views
Not in TN *NM* - 22/06/2010 02:02:32 PM 426 Views
This is ridiculous - 22/06/2010 03:18:03 AM 1036 Views
How exactly did I justify anything? Perhaps you missed the subject of my post. - 22/06/2010 02:28:21 PM 965 Views
I'm saying the fact that the law was broken is totally irrelevent, - 23/06/2010 02:15:56 AM 1034 Views
How can it be even slightly irrelevant, let alone "totally" so? - 25/06/2010 03:24:19 PM 907 Views
It is sad when idiocy and a lack of judgment becomes codified into law backed with enforcement power - 21/06/2010 09:56:32 PM 1501 Views
i don't even know if I'd be happy with a lawsuit - 22/06/2010 12:31:18 AM 915 Views
The cop should be fired and fined - 23/06/2010 03:40:32 PM 907 Views
You are such a bleeding heart liberal.. - 25/06/2010 03:22:42 AM 893 Views
