I am not talking about expired tags, broken lights, or car weaving. Looking suspicious is not reason neither, I beat that in court. No reason

Mr Dog Lover
I driving home about 4am in the morning from work. Was stopped my Police Officer for Driving the Speed Limit under rainy conditions. He made the mistake of saying I looked suspicuous. How does someone look suspicocus??? I cannot change my face. I had slack & polo shirt. My car nothing wrong. I was driving home. The Judge agreed with me and took care of the ticket.

I used to get pulled over all the time. I couldn't walk a mile without getting searched when I was young. I grew up poor, grew my hair long. So the cops assumed that was enough of a reason. Or I'd be in a high crime neighborhood. Didn't matter that I LIVED there. Just that they stopped folks in that neighborhood. Also been in roadblocks where my car got extra special searching just for looking poor.

The excuse was, "I wanted to see what I could find." I started yelling at him about the 4th Amendment and he called for back-up. I yelled at them, too, and the first cop said, "I can arrest you if I want!" and I said "DO IT! Put me in handcuffs and charge me, or let me go, you fascist!" The back up officers took him aside and calmed him down, and eventually, one of the state troopers told me that this guy was a world-class f- up, and couldn't find his 'tain't' with a map and a flashlight. I reminded the trooper that living in a police state was all it's cracked up to be. Nowadays, they call these searches 'safety inspections' and the Bush administration destroyed the 4th Amendment as police need only a 'good suspicion' of wrong doing to stop, and then search. Heil Bush! Heil Cheney!

Yep sure was and when they could not find anything to give me a ticket for they made us park the car and walk anyway,then my friend made a comment about it and they beat him up pretty good and the other cop had her hand on her gun and dared me to move. After my friend got clubbed a few time they asked if I wanted the same and made me leave and then took him to jail and released him the next morning with no charges,Long Beach California.

Yup, sure have. 2-3 am. shrug. Not a problem I was always polite, they did their thing and I went on home. A young kid I know kept complaining about being hassled so I asked him what's the first thing you do when the cop comes to the window? "I roll it down and ask WTF did I do?" Well, there ya go. Try good morning sir, yes sir, no sir. We did it as an experiment and lo and behold he didn't get any grief. And he weaved something terrible, kid can't drive, had to tell him that.

I was provoked to break the law by a cop. he was behind me with his brights on and he starting getting on my butt and weeving like he was drunk. I sped up to get to the next turn off which was after a country school zone,. As soon as I hit the school zone on came the lights and I got pulled over.
My family has lived in the small town for over 100 years and when he saw my last name he let me go. Tell me how crooked was that

Yea, one time when I was like 19 a cop pulled me over to be sure I wasn't driving a stolen car..... huh? Yea, like a champagne Chryster New Yorker is such a HOT commodity. He ran a check on my plate and my driver's license... and of coarse found nothing (it was my Dad's car). I was thinking either he was an idiot or he was just trying to pick me up ~ either way it got him nowhere.... That Miami-Dade's finest at work!

No, every time I have been pulled over it was for a reason. Most officers I have dealt with have been kind because I was kind to them, whether I got the ticket or not.

They also have a reason.....cops are issued books of reasons to pull people over. Half the time only they know why they are pulling you over....then they ask you the really stupid question.....do you know why i am pulling you over? You want to answer with do you really know why or do you want me to dream up the reason for you?
Yes, I have been pulled over numerous times for no reason what so ever. In fact a few times I was pulled over just so they could see my car or motor ( 71 Challenger R/T).....misuse of power as far as I am concerned. It annoys me to no end.....because no matter what I have to pull over because they are cops....and if I don't pull over I am screwed. Can't stand it.

Yes I have. They said that they had a report of someone driving drunk in a car the same color as mine. Then they told me that they had the license plate number of that car, but mine was totally different. It kind of pissed me off, but oh well.

What??????????????????????? \
To quote you:
"Looking suspicious is not reason neither, I beat that in court. No reason"
You beat what in court?
This is the question from a convict or an idiot that just wants to play the system... Talk to me goose in the Queens English.
