Why do people show respect to cops?
    #22068915 - 08/09/15 07:09 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Especially the douchey ones. Calling them Sir and answering their questions. You don't have to answer any of their questions. Simply ask if you are under arrest or free to go. Don't consent to any searches either.

Their job is to fuck you over any way they possibly can.

unless you're hiding drugs or shit in your car, why the hell wouldn't you consent to a search? They'll spend like 2 minutes searching and tell you have a nice day. If you refuse to consent, they see that as a sign you're hiding something because they're assholes. Then they'll keep you there for like a fucking hour and ruin your whole day because you're being a pussy.

I don't disrespect anybody unless they personally disrespect me first or act in a way that I feel is undeserving of respect. You can't just lump ALL cops together like that

I called one sir, acted panicked because I was like 23 over the limit I claimed I didn't know the limit, couldn't even find my insurance card. Guy let me go. Respect em they're people too...

It's not an issue of cops. Issue is ones who abuse the power which can be the majority sure, but you never know.

I have had a lot of close calls when it comes to being searched, but I have never gotten caught for anything. I just make sure I hide my stash or whatever in a good hiding place, so if cops confront me and for some reason they search me, I just let them do a really quick search as to not raise suspicion and go on with my day.

I don't want to cause a fit because some cop who I will never see again wants to look through my shit for a minute or two. Why make the pigs even more pissed at you, thus giving them more reason to bust you for some stupid shit? If you just act them normally and don't be a dumbass, they won't hassle you for long.

Regardless if you are caught doing something or not, you do not cooperate with cops to help them catch you on more shit.

There is nothing positive that will come from agreeing to a search, except the relief of the social pressure they impose to intimidate you to agree to a search.

They wouldn't catch me on anything, because there is nothing in my car that they could "get me on". Obviously if you have shit in your car and you consent to a search you will be fucked, I mean it doesn't take a genius to figure that out :lol.....  All I am saying is the people who don't consent to searches for no reason other than they don't like the police are just causing more agony than they're trying to prevent.

Be cool with the cops.  Unless you are carrying something.  Then be obsequious but do not consent to a search.  Politely decline.

Because they have the gun.

I agree you should never agree to a search. They always use tricky wording like "you don't mind if we look around do you?" so if you say no you are agreeing with it and if you say yes they go right ahead. Say you do not consent to a search and then shut up.

I would be polite if stopped while in traffic but soon as they want to search I give no cooperation at all. You might talk your way out of a ticket being a decent person but that all stops once they try to catch you doing something.

Its idiotic to allow a search. You never forgot anything in your whole life? That joint, roach, couple pills, pinch of powder you stashed away can put you behind bars for a long time. "no you may not search"

Anyone who is just always outright a dick or disrespectful to the cops is an idiot. Don't believe me? Watch all the videos of people getting shot because of an escalating situation that started with that behavior, or all the ones that get tazed or thrown to the ground.

Doesn't really make a fuck if they can legally do it or not as defined by the law. Your ass gets shot and killed, you're not going to be around to receive justice.

If some gangbanger put a pistol in your face would you start talking shit? If you would, you're an idiot. Treat the cops the same way.

You don't have to kiss their ass but there's no point in being a dick, either.

Being a dick to a cop isn't going to help anyone's case. It's only going to make things worse and make the cop want to fuck with you that much more.

Because if all your stupid friends see you harassing an officer, you're cool or some shit. I dunno, I don't really understand that phenomenon. They have an entire system in place where the more likely you are to get shot or end up in prison, the more street cred you have.

^^ This. I've been pulled over a couple of times. Normally for things like forgetting to turn my headlights on after sunset or something along those lines. Once because it was one of those alcohol check points (I don't remember what they're called.)

I'm always polite. Smile. 100% cooperative. For this, I have a spotless driving record. Not even one speeding ticket (then again I don't speed so. *shrug*)

Being respectful not only keeps me from getting my ass kicked, it also keeps me from getting tickets. Sometimes their attempts at flirting can get awkward, but I figure as long as they're comfortable? I get to live. If you feel comfortable enough to try to try to charm me, you're likely to not pull me out of my car. Simple as that.

Am I the only one who never has been searched? The only question they ever asked me was "do you know how fast you were going?" or "have you had anything to drink tonight?" That's it. Why are you people arousing all their suspicions? Do you have like white person dreads or something? If you want to get into drug business don't be a fucking skid. As matter of fact they call me "sir" now.

I respect cops because if i don't they get a huhe hard on, to fuck you over and ruin any plans you have. Then i talk shit all day about cops, and play gta and go on cop killing sprees.

Gta definitely has some therapeutic value to it.

Also everytime i have been asked if i would let them call the dogs, or have them search my car, i always say yes. They walk back in the car, come back and let me off with a warning or just give me the traffic ticket.

I have a question though. Am i doing it right? I figure i say i have no problem with them searching me, then if they ask me to step out of the car, then this is the moment i ask what probable cause they have, not when they ask to see my reaction to the possibility, right?

And op, respecting cops will definitely help you get back from that road trip your planning, without a criminal record. It would also probably help if you pull off all the "meat is murder" bumper stickers off your car too. Anything you can do to look less individual is going to go a long way.

It's just not a good idea to disrespect a cop Your only asking for more trouble if you instigate cops If you dress and speak respectably and not driving a flashy car a lot of times you can just "nerd up" and act like any other normal church going law biding citizen They most likely just let you go with no trouble in my experience

Most might start out as good people, but something about dealing with crime and bullshit all day turns a majority of them into elitist, uncompassionate, power hungry, neanderthals. A good handful of them become down right sociopaths devoid of any empathy whatsoever. They lose objectivity and the ability to look at a situation and realize that suspect probably isn't defined by this one thing they got caught for. Everyone becomes a dangerous criminal that is guilty until proven innocent regardless of the benignity of their crime.

That's no reason to go getting stupid and act like you can win in any confrontation (that word is important, I don't mean any contact, I mean active confrontation) with them. They will always win. You may be cleared of wrong doing down the line, but at the point of first contact, you will NOT win.

Cops are specifically trained to keep escalating the situation to establish their authority/dominance. This is in their training. In theory it's a great idea for a person looking to maintain control of a situation and keep things in line, in practice it's a really shitty one. The escalating rarely goes as planned or has the desirable outcome.

Cops are suppose to make us feel safe but instead all they do is make us feel uncomfortable and nervous

I don't really agree with that (making us feel safe). That's just some line everyone's been fed their entire life. Their entire function is to maintain order, which really has little to do with wanting us feeling safe. It's all about control. You control the population and you control the country. That type of shit dates back thousands of years (if not 10's or 100's of thousands). Every branch of "enforcement" is answerable to another branch above it, all the way up to the  very top.

Not all cops are bad people though. I think it's really wrong to say that every cop is bad. I've had cops cut me breaks on going to jail many times even though I probably should have ended up there.

I never said they're all bad. Attitude goes a long way and even most of the prickiest of cops will respond positively as long as you're respectful with them. There are still those bad apples that no matter what you do they're just going to try and fuck you over though.

A good cop to me is one who can take the disrespect and still be professional. Those are kind of rare. Most (IME anyways) will turn into an asshole if they even perceive you to be disrespectful. Totally regardless of whether you actually were or meant to be.

This is a very bold statement.

You don't have to call them sir/maddam/m'am etc.

Just be polite, you generally get off better or off completely if you are slightly in the wrong.

Police generally show a lot of respect back to those who are polite and honest. What goes around comes around. Depends on location too I would guess.

90% or more of cops are decent human beings who believe, falsely or not, that they are helping their communities and making the world a better place.

Then there's the other cunts...

Being as respectful as possible to cops is the best way to prevent them from fucking you over. Being rude and disrespectful to cops is idiotic. They can and will beat the shit out of you, plant drugs on you and or frame you and say you assaulted them. Or you could be super polite and go home unharmed .

It's all about getting them to identify with you.

It's quiet out here. Mostly. I usually let officers go ahead of me in line at gas stations. I rewired some of their facilities last year so I'm on good terms with them. I've been pulled over twice with weed the last 5 years and got let go because I wasn't "smoking that reefer and driving". Got pulled over last winter doing 70 in a 45. Was icy as shit. Told the deputy the car was out of control on the ice and I couldn't stop it and was looking for a snowbank to slow me down so I wouldn't kill anyone.

He checked my shitty truck tires, asked if I had drugs or guns, saw my work truck and I guess knew my boss. He did say though if there was no ice I'd be paying hundreds of dollars with possible revocation. "Yes sir, thank you sir, have a great day and please be safe as well."

:shrug:

Country living I guess, and not being a belligerent asshole with loaded firearms while trafficking drugs.

Respect goes a long way. I don't think a lot of people here realize that. It's applicable to anything in life.

Just like regular peeps don't like a cop being a dick to them, cops don't like having to deal with the people they pull over being a dick either.

I love the police resistance videos though where the person that was pulled over is being asked nicely to step out of the vehicle and they think they don't have to comply...then they get tazed lol.

Sell, some are jerks, and not spending the night in jail is nice. Then there are some that are good people with a shitty job, and making a job where some punk ass kid could pull out a gun and blow you out of this world at any time worse is a dick move. There are dicks though. On God, there are smegma encrusted, tumor riddled dicks

I dont kiss ass, but i've always complied with showing my id and answering basic questions. There's been so many times that a smart mouth could have landed me in hot water. Now being an adult with no record at all, if  i'm questioned or id ( rarely happens) and that looks better. Maybe a cop would not question me or bother me in the future because he remembered that i'm a good guy.lol

Yeah I've had proud friends defend their right to piss behind any dumpster, making a big deal about the cops bugging them and then being able to get to piss their pants in drunk tank. One actually stood their ground and shat right on the cell floor.lol
