Why I should sit on my butt at home and play games

Well guys, I dont go out much at night time, as it is a fairly dangerous area in Atlanta, and just the other day me and my friend were chilling at his house at about 11 P.M. on saturday, so he says "Yo man lets go out for a walk, I want to do something" so I agreed and we set off. Approximately 45 minutes later we had been to the gas station, gotten some chips and drinks, and were headed back home, when suddenly I heard the all too familiar sound of "blip" the sound the police make with their sirens to try and scare you, immidiately 2 cop cars converged on us and had 3 cops searching us and asking us why we were out so late, we told them we got bored and were just out for a walk, and they replied with "No you werent, you were smoking dope" so we went through 2 hours of badgering about us smoking dope, several searches, and endless questions to try and make us seem stoned, well, after they couldnt pin marijuana on us, they didnt want to leave empty handed, they HAD to get us with something, so happy mr jackass police officer goes and sits in his car for about 10 minutes, then comes out and says "Ok, yall are being charged with prowling, and in posession of concealed weapons." Now, yes I had a knife, and so did Brad, but ANYONE who lives in Atlanta Georgia KNOWS if you dont carry protection, you will end up dead. When the cop started badgering me about my knife, he said some of the dumbest BS I've ever heard "Whatcha got this big knife for huh buddy?" "Well I'm in Atlanta in a popular mexican gang area at 12:30PM, what do you think?" "Dont get smart with me boy! This is a deer skinnin knife! Its not deer season! You out here skinnin people? You aint got no need for a knife, whats it for really? Cutting blunts?" "Well sir, pardon me if I sound rude, but if I dont need my knife, you dont need your Glock or your knife or your shotgun or your stun baton." "I see... Well you shouldnt have it anyways boy, I know you and your friend here are out here lighting up, your just lucky we aint found it yet", Anyone else think that is some bull****? My friend is 17 living with his brother who is 23, his friend who is 20, and his girlfriend who is 19, so all the cop had to do was call his bro to pick him up, now I'm 19, and I guess I have to be 21 to miss out on kerfew*, so they had to call my mother to come and get me, and drive me to my car, needless to say I'm in deep crap not only from my parents but from the fact that I gotta go to court now.

Well first off its not a huge hunting knife, its from the tip of my middle finger to the bottom of my palm, and I dont live IN the bad gang neighborhoods, they are about a mile and a half to 2 miles down the road, the neighborhood I live in is nothing but old people, and the neighborhood across the street is teh ghetto, and I was kind to the officer till he crossed over the line bitching about my knife when hes carrying 2 guns, a beat stick, and a stun gun. And dark blade.. Stone mountain.. gah.. thats not bad, You know where Roswell street is in marietta, franklin road? Nuff said with that :), Several gang shootings last month

Thank you Battlin' Billy for that support. :P





...but I'd still ticket ya! :D

Actually, about 90% of people that police encounter are cooperative. (At least in Canada)

OH and I'd still like the R+PG for this arrest?!

One suggestion I can give you when dealing with cops:

ALWAYS treat them with respect even if they don't return the consideration. Call them sir and "Yes Officer" them a lot and don't be a wise ass! My friend got busted smoking a joint in his car and the cop wasn't gonna do anything 'til my buddy bcame a wise ass. I know this bcuz I bailed him out of jail.

I dont have a Gf i dont have a life. But then there are games. and not to brag i suck.

The 1st time I got stopped for speeding the cop searched my car. I was a dumb 17 year old, and didnt have anything weird in my car, so I turned out ok. But I'll be damned if that guy didnt yell at me a whle bunch. :) When I was in court to do the whole traccic ticket thing I was lisening in on another case. Some guy in his early 20's was in front of the judge getting sentenced for public intoxication. The accused had the kind of haircut where its all shaved on the sides and back and on the top is all long and in a pony tail. You know what I'm talking about. After the sentancing the judge tells him "back in my day we would bend you over the hoods of our patrol cars and beat you with our flashlights for having a haircut like that, son". Holy hell, man.

Just a quick question, what were the Officer's reasonable and probable grounds for searching you and your friend?

Lol well I dont have any reason to lie to everyone here, not like it would make a difference, as I said we didnt go out with a goal to buy chips, we were just goin out for a walk, when we normally do that its down to the gas station and back, bout a 20 minute walk, at my friends house, we got a gamecube, with a few games, and sometimes my PS2, not much to do at all, and I never said I havent lit up before, of course I have, but definately not within a month or 2, and the point of the knife isnt always to use it on another person, its more of a scare tool than anything else, I'd never kill someone unless it was in self defense, and I took boxing lessons for 3 years so I know how to throw some punches, anywho, ask dark if he carrys protection when he goes anywhere on foot :)

Cops can be dicks. I usually find that the rookie cops are the worst. They just got out of the Police Academy and want to prove themselves or use this new power they have.

Here's a good cop story:

My buddies and I were hanging out at the train station parking lot cuz that had the best nite-time lighting for Hacky Sack. It was my birthday and we were having a few beers and smoking a few joints. My buddy Art got hold of the bottle of Absolute I recieved as a gift and pretty much finished it by himself! So he climbs on top of my car and just passes out on the roof. 15 mins later, a cop pulls into the lot. He notices that we're kicking the beans and having a few beers. He just said, "Hey guys! How are you doing tonite." We told him it was my b-day and just getting 2gether to celebrate. He said that it was cool and just take all the empties with us when we leave and we agreed (we planned on it anyway). Then he notices Art passed out on top of my car. He asks, "He's not driving anywhere, is he?" We laughed and said definitely not! Then we offered him a beer (just to be polite) and asked him if he wanted to play Hacky Sack with us, and he did! It was very funny seeing a cop playing Hacky Sack.

So not all cops are bad, they're just people too. It just sucks that some of them abuse the power they're given.
