"It is not just yourself that you must worry about on the road, but all other drivers as well. This would encompass the law abiding citizens driving 55 that you will slam into while you are flying down the road. "
(Gasp) You're RIGHT!!! I never thought of that ! Wait....what is that third pedal for...dont tell me...ones the gas...ones the clutch....now I think the other one is the... BRAKE! Yeah thats it the brake it slows you down when your about to slam into law abiding citizens. ( a very useful invention)
Your arguement is specious in that you purport that every one is doing 55 and here comes little old me doing 85 and like a stray bullet, BAM, the poor legal driver is dead. (woe is him, woe is him) Have ya driven on an interstate at all in your life??? Do you know what speed the average driver is doing on said interstate? Does your medication make you silly or hallucinate? Or this this your normal ridiculously pompous attitude? And you have to ask why I assumed your young and dumb?
Let me also make another assumption. You have been pulled over and written how many tickets? Or was it DWI? (Has to be a reason for all this bitterness toward the police.)

Ok I guess I was writing this last one while you were writing your apology. So lets bury the hatchet (just not in my head) I'll try not to speed as much, for the childrens sake.(WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!) This was fun but now I have to get ready to go to work and write some more speeding tickets C-YA
P.S. I'm sure you're cool too...after all you're from NY right?

Poor excuse
My friend,
So fast you become hostile. I guess they teach that in the academy. I have been pulled over and ticketed twice in 15 years. Neither of which was in the last 14 years. Point being that I learned my lesson. The posted speed limit is also meant to be the legal speed limit.
I would infer from your remarks that if I was travelling with the speed of traffic on an interstate that I would be speeding. It's wonderful that an officer just assumes that everyone breaks the law. I guess that's why we really do need to rely on the fact the everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
Now to address you assumptions about my perception of officers. I grew up in a non-major metro area as a skateboarder...nuff said.
Please don't make an a$$ out of yourself with comments referring to medications or DWI's it is just showing your hand. As an FYI, there is a whole generation of straight edge citizens on the prowl. Try to handle your feedback a bit more intellegently.
Additional side bar: you seem to be taking this personally. Not to deflate your boat, but I could care less if it was you or your Chief............if you are an officer of the law you are not above the law.
Got that Chief--------
Now get back out there Danno.
N Y C X B O X
EDIT::::::I threw this little puppy out there before seeing your reply......Hatchet burried....and if you think I am going to tell you where I'm from your craaaazzzzzy.
Unless of course you need my address to send me a buddy pass......YEEEAAAHHHH>

It is
Straight edge refers to living drug and alchohol free. Treating the body as the temple that it truely is. Not fogging the mind and spirit with outside substances. It basically means living the good life. Now I didn't say I don't throw back some cold budweiser on the weekends....just alerting those who didn't know.
Where you from?
I would love to do a ride along.........and I don't mean in the back seat......

Virginia...and sorry we dont take ride alongs. Some of what we do is classified. We do set up speed traps on the civilian highways but that does not encompass most of my day. (Only during peak hours) I couldnt even get you on our facility with out a security clearance.

Ok, for some reason almost everyone here think a cop can't own a fast car...wtf?
They have lives too, they don't (usually) go to work everyday and be like "I'm going to pull over everyone who goes over the speed limit"
Yea, I've been pulled over before from a**hole cops but that doesn't make me believe every cop is an a**.

Mines a 5 sp as well.

I'm not sure what's more disgustin... your choice in cars to "race" or the fact that you're a "police officer"
maybe you should just stick to picking up wifey and the kids in your car...

If you have worked on many vehicles you will know that the displacement means a lot less than people think, and that gap is closing quickly.
wasn't this thread all about a straight line drag race??????

Dear Dustin and SVT2NV, 
Hey next time your in trouble like when some one jacks your car, why dont you call a plumber or maybe your mommy. (of course it has been my experience that people who scream the loudest when it comes to cop bashing are the first to call one when they are in trouble.)
Dear Marshall,
In Va. radar detectors are illegal to posses in a vehicle. We confiscate them where I am.

If this guy's a cop, then I'm Eliot Ness. What a poser!
At best he sits the gate at Ft. Belvoir, checking badges. Talks about security clearance, when people who talk about it, don't get one! Talks about drag racing, when people who do and boast about it, or don't and make it up, don't get access to classified material.

if u were referring to me, my name is Duston, 2nd, so far in my life i have not had the need to call a cop and hopefully never will. I use to have no feelings towards cops, even after i got my first/only ticket when i was 17, until i started meeting all these cops on power trips who had no intelligence nor reasoning capability what so ever.... we'll save those stories for a later date.

Uh, yeah... you've also been watching to much TV. My clearance is a matter of public record. The fact that I have one is not classified. Also I dont recall anything on my poly that asked if I bragged about drag racing before my clearance was granted...but as someone who hasnt the faintest idea of how it works I guess I can forgive your ignornance.
PS Oh and next time you're in Clarke County let me know and be sure to give me your plate #...I'll be happy to aquaint you with with Mr. Handcuffs, Elliot.
