ewww, not wanna hear that Twilight Zone theme nowadays....creepy years on this earth. In the past, there wasn't much crimes...now, the crimes got worsen, the kids turn into nasty creatures of the days and nights in school and outside of homes...scary, so it's no longer normal society now. Someone better try to turn the table around especially the clock and start all over again from the scratch. I doubt it. All those movies and shows are way out into the space; they give worse influences, kids kiss kids, kids use drugs, and so on.

Dang, Rose Mortal, what was considered "normal" in those times is no longer the norm nowadays, I guess.
We are creatures.
Of habit.
Like Taylor said, if one cop has been to have been known doing something illegal all this time, no one is accountable.
Welcome to the Twilight Zone.
Does that help?

Beowulf, You misunderstood what I said. I didn't say he was doing something illegal. If this law is on the books, and he has been enforcing equally amonst all bad bumper stickers (legally) then he will be in the clear. If they look at his record and it shows that this is the one and only time that he has written this ticket, then it shows he was biased towards her. That kind of thing happens all the time in the courts.

An example would be an officer pulls over two white teenagers driving out of a project neighborhood suspecting they just purchased drugs. He pulls them over for something stupid like not enough tread on the tires. Their lawyer could say 'You pulled over my client only because he was white and was coming out of a bad neighborhood'. But, if the cop wrote many citations for that same violation with people of different races and locations, then it would show that it was how he has always operated and did not single the white kids out...make sense?

I totally agree with you that kids of today gotten getting worse.
 
Wow, looks like more and more of our freedom of speech is taken away and more things are being banned, some land of freedom we live in.... :ugh:
 
Can you keep us posted on this? It's still illegal to spit on the sidewalk here but no one gets a ticket. Taylor is correct- this falls under the cops discretion. If his behavior was typical it will bear itself out. If not this will probably be thrown out. Would he have given her a ticket for "Little Guys Try Harder"? (They do, I know- hee hee)

I do agree with you there....crap like that ticks me off. I try to compare apples to apples...and the value of the call. Lets say its a violent crime in progress (husband stabbing the wife) I will be more aggressive in my response. If I'm going to a call that is more routine but still requires lights and sirens, I back off a bit. A rule of thumb in our department is that you do nobody any good if you don't get there in one piece. I won't pull some crazy stunt to catch somebody on a minor traffic infraction, nor cut off a semi in the process.

Whats funny is I think you'd have fun riding sometime lights and sirens and watching peoples reactions...they don't pull over or slam on their brakes. 5 cars go right and three cars go left and I have no way to get through. I wish it was like Moses parting the see and everyone safely moved to the side.

I was a photographer for the fire department for a couple months before going on the road driving truck and saw many cars not pull over for the red lights and siren.

I've had people cut in front of me when I was driving a truck AND a school bus. One guy, Taylor, was a real old gent, who was really driving slow and I didn't know what he was doing, so I raised my arms as to say, "What are you doing?" He stopped me and challenged me to a fight . . . seriously! I told him I had a child on board and couldn't get out, so he looked in the windows and saw her. I thought, what an idiot, I'm a green belt in Karate, you think you're going to succeed in punching me out? Fortunately, I had called it in to my dispatch and the police came . . . red lights and siren. I was nicknamed "Rambo" when I got back to the base, which really made me laugh at the entire incident.

As for the husband and wife, I most definately would step in between them. Yeah, I'm that crazy, but somethings got to be done. I sometimes watch "Cops" and read on the captioning the reasons why some people give cops a chase. "I don't know, I thought I was doing something illegal . . ." is a typical response. Also, how do you pat down a nudist? :bump:
 
YES! :bowdown: :applause:
I am very damn happy for her! Nurse did kick their ass!
Go Nurse! I am very happy about her! Let's forget about
bad things! :thumb:

:nana: for cops who gave a ticket to her, and cop got ended up
sued by her!
 
LOL... I had seen alot of anti-Bush bumperstickers in LA area and most part of SoCal but this laws aren't care about bad thing with Bush and its support free speech to against on Bush. I had seen alot of anti-Bush bumperstickers in our high school, that where alot of Mexicans hate Bush, of course but I support alot of Mexicans about how feel with Bush, and it does happen to other Latino (such as South America and Central America) too. There's anti-Bush bumperstickers in Chicago area but not much as in LA area. I'm planning to get anti-Bush bumpersticker for my car soon.
 
Lawsuit Filed Over Bumper Sticker
Reported By: Jerry Carnes
Last Modified: 10/17/2006 8:07:25 AM

The case of the Metro Atlanta nurse and her Bush bashing bumper sticker is now going to federal court. The American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Denise Grier, who was stopped by a Dekalb County police officer because of her bumper sticker that combined the name Bush with an expletive.

“We want people to be able to have bumper stickers on their vehicles without fear of being stopped by the police,” said ACLU lawyer Gerry Weber.

In March, a police officer issued a ticket, claiming that Grier had violated a Georgia law prohibiting lewd bumper stickers.

“He said ‘you have a lewd decal on your car,’ and I said ‘I do?’” Grier said at the time. “My first thought was, one of my children had put something obscene or filthy on my car.”

According to the ACLU, Georgia’s lewd bumper sticker law was declared unconstitutional in 1991. Lawyers for the ACLU claim officers from at least four different agencies in the state have issued citations based on the law since then. Denise Grier is the first to file suit.

“We want the offense to be off the officer’s books,” says Weber.

At the Junkman’s Daughter in Little Five Points, there is a display of political bumper stickers; some of them are R-rated.

“I don’t want to be put in the position to explain to my children what that means,” says parent Fran Dundore.

Dundore and fellow parent Rose Ann Watson say it’s a sticky issue.

“You don’t want to eliminate someone’s freedom of speech,” says Dundore. “On the other hand, you don’t want your kids to be exposed to something you can’t censor.

The ACLU filed the lawsuit against Dekalb County, as well as the officer who wrote the ticket. Because it is a pending legal action, no one with Dekalb County would comment.

The suit seeks unspecified damages, claiming Grier suffered “emotional distress.”

One on hand, I wouldn't want my children reading that. On the other, he shouldn't have given her a ticket. That's like me slapping people that like red because it's not my favorite color.

Is it legal in your state? If yes then buy one.
