Want to know why intelligent CITIZENS dont like cops?

[Abbsnkan]

It has nothing to do with nazi. It has to do with rights. I dont understand how one can swear to uphold the constitution yet totally ignore the 4th amendment. Or any of the constitution for that matter.
Im not trying to stir up a **** storm or be disrespectful at all to you personally or any LEO's. Just am honestly curious, from an LEO POV, how is it that you feel random roadblocks are constitutional?

Depends on the scope of the "roadblock" in ga you are required to provide identification when asked by a Leo. Law, doesn't matter what your opinion. Don't like it call your congressman. In the state of ga the privilege to drive on the roadway is just that. That's why you must be licensed and have a proper vehicle, ins, etc. it is not a right like some have said. If you think it is then why do you have a drivers license. Which also isn't your. It is state property and can be seized without a warrant at any time by a leo.

Is it in convienient to go through them sure, but I've been to Iraq, and Afghanistan , and half a dozen other countries where a roadblock involves tanks, apcs, and machine gun nests. Where the hell do you guys live that a license check is so horrible? Pull up hand him your info, your not required to answer any questions. Only provide identification. Can they search no, hell no, get a dog, got a time limit from time of stop. Get a warrant or release me. They can't even ask to search while they are standing there with your license in hand. Next time ask if they know what 18USC 242 is? Bet their attitude changes.


99% of people out there have no issues, no problems with leo encounters. But I'm sure you have a friend who has a friend who got a ticket for 3-4 over. Bull**** no they didn't. Prove it. Ga speed code says ALL Leo agencies must give 10 over before a caution can be issued with several exceptions
1. Troopers- their tickets go to the locality of the issuance. So all the talk of a quota is stupid
2. Construction zone
3. School zone
4. Historic districts like down town most of ga.


Can't stand cops here's a novel idea avoid interaction and remain courteous. You don't have to be a dick just cause you can.

I know that you can be taken to jail for a dui for blowing anything over 0. its at the officers discretion, and you could get a cop looking to get the most duis that night to fill quota.

Incorrect sir. Per se is over 0.08, under 0.08 40-6-391 requires the driver be proven less safe.

Oh hell naw you didn't

you don't have to do it. do you understand what preventative measure is? ok, lets let the cop sit down the road from the bar still. so he can possibly get his arrest with no violation of 4th. because I can respect your point. but if duis are such a big problem, (which I believe they are as well as anyone) what are cops doing to prevent them? do you see a calibrated machine at the bar/restaurant so someone can check to see what their b/a level is at? and im not talking about a toy that kids try to get a high score on. something seriously treated as what it is.....and lets say charge a dollar per use to cover costs of it. I know I would use it simply because I know that you can be taken to jail for a dui for blowing anything over 0. its at the officers discretion, and you could get a cop looking to get the most duis that night to fill quota. if it saved one innocent persons life... would it not be worth it?

Sounds great!!!! Please contact Vicky cox in Athens ga. She's the MADD rep in this area. Let me throw which nite you will be addressing a meeting so we can meet and you can tell the story of how everyone else is wrong.

Really, you want my opinion onDUIs ? Ok here it is. Look at the crime statistics for any college town in America. I think we can all agree that college kids drink? Compare that to any similar size town DUI statistic. Not image you had a kid getting ready to go to college and your a responsible parent. You look up the crime statistics. Would you want to know that after 11 pm 60% of vehicles on the road are DUIs? Is it about money? Sure it is, a school shooting happens and they want to ban guns, 15000 people a year are murdered by drunk and what? Shut down bars? Limit drinks? Have a cop sit outside with a breathalyzer, which is illegal to testify in court about. Cops for the most part do their best, some don't some cant, some never will. But at the end of the day I feel better knowing there's a few that do care out there.

Just to piss you off I'll throw this out omega. I worked part time at a small small dept on my off weekends. It was me, my 78 was county 15 min away if I was lucky. Major road between a party town and nothing. I stopped so many cars and locked up so many drunks they started driving around the city limits to keep from coming by me! Make me feel like a hero, no but made my citizens feel safe. And that's what being a cop is about.

Whatever. Less safe is bs propaganda to allow the officer to still ruin your night, get his arrest and have a reason to allow him to still work for the same department in a suit type situation.

Are you retarded? Really retarded, or just stupid, propaganda?ok I'm done we could all explain it to you but we can't understand it for you. Your right, cops are all bad.
