What do you think of cops?

In general, what is your disposition towards police officers?
The key words are "in general" here. Your decision should not be based on whether you think they are necessary or not (although you are free to add your commentary), just your attitude towards them.

I feel some level of law enforcement is necessary, but some of the intrusive and oppressive laws we have make police work more of a predatory job than one of service to the public. Because of this, it tends to attract assholes on a power trip, rather than the kind of people who would be more inclined to protect us from danger.
In summary, fuck the police!

it depends which ones. some of them are cops because they wanted to do things like make their area a safer place, apprehending real criminals, and only bust people for drugs because they have to, otherwise they would get in trouble. these are good cops.
then you have the cops who are just assholes who are just looking for people to bust for smoking pot.
i guess i'll vote impartial. depends on the cop really. i've met some nice ones

It's funny how wrong the US has it concerning police compared to some other countries. When I was in Costa Rica the police did exactly what they were supposed to do. They stayed the fuck out of everyone's business unless people were screwing with other people.

Ya, there's definitely some good ones out there. One cop who pulled me over let me go even though he could tell I was high, because in his judgement, I wasn't a danger to anyone.

I really think that they are beneficial when they do things that are worth while.
Example: persuing and preventing violent crimes. Putting someone in jail for a victimless crime is flat out bullshit. They should have better things to do with their time than lock up a teenager for having some pot.

I dont have a problem with cops at all, but i dont love them... i voted impartial.
I've gotten pulled over only a few times in my life for speeding... even though i speed outrageously daily... and not once have i gotten a ticket. It's always a warning.

I was actually in Costa Rica surfing some big 20 ft swells last summer in a small surfing town. However, the time I was in that town was when there were also some bigtime Costa Rican drug smugglers doing business... Me and the other people i was on the trip with were all told to stay inside our hotel rooms during one night where the Police did a big drug bust... all kinds of gunfire that night. It was crazy. Eventually the drug dealers got arrested and a few people were left dead.
Police are just doin there jobs... like 'em or not. Even though, after watching 3 seasons of Reno 911 straight... im beggining to LOVE cops! lmao.

we need police to ensure that those that intend to do us harm don't. the reality is they rarely do just that. the only thing they manage to do is clean up the mess left in the wake of those who they are sworn to protect us all from. if i were murdered or just simply mugged, i am happy there is someone there to find and bring to justice the person/persons involved. but if they were truely there to serve and protect i would never have been assulted and/or mugged in the first place. more money is devoted to enforceing laws that protect me from myself then the laws protecting me from others. but this is not why i hate them so. i hate the police because they are suckers. they believe what they are told and weild a gun enforcing the laws that only benifit the few. it is their ignorance of the facts and their unwillingness to listen to the real facts and to listen to that little voice that is telling them that what they are doing is not always right that i find inexcusable. they trade social responcibility for the comfort of a pention plan. they accept money from the government to supress the people who finance that very govenment.

It's not cops that are bad because they don't make the law,but still they sure have a racist and abusive way to enforce it is my opinion!A lot of police officer's only join "the force" ha ha because they have small dicks and got picked on all their life at high school and such that now they become cops to yell at people and make us normal people small!!Well of course they're are nice cops once in a while who just joined because they want to help protect their community but still COPS ARE ASSHOLE'S!And what the hell is up with the government telling us that marijuana is worse than alcohol?!NO hangover's,not as tough as a high as alcohol and NO OVER DOSES!!They're all crazy I tell ya!It IS our body isn't it?!why should they be able to control the substances we decide to put in it!?

I generally hate the bastards there are some nice cops. I got stopped for being out after 10:00pm when i was 17 i had 3 grams of weed and my small pipe and butterfly knife i was kind of drunk and high as a kite. the cop stopped me and asked if i had any weapons on me i told him i had a butterfly knife he took all my stuff and laid it on the car. he then frisked m,e and found all my shit he just said "you look like your just out to have a good time so if you promise me to go home that i wont bust you." I said yes of course. he actually let me go. that was a super nice cop thats in my area sometimes. then there's the asshole cop i was walking along a road about 11(this was after i turned 18) and some kids had been throwing shit at cars and someone called the cops. cop stopped me and told me to put my hands on the ground i said what for and he said i did stuff i didn't do he then hand cuffs me extremely tightly and throws me against the car and frisks me I'm just asking what the fuck i did he then threw me in the car and it was fucking bullshit. about 10 Min's of being in the car in pain he comes and says that i was free to go. and that i wasn't the guy. he uncuffed me and said he was sorry i just cussed him out the fucking pig he was bain such a jackass all built up like a fuckin jock assholewith the attitude of one too.

I have met some good ones and some bad ones. Unlike my younger days I have found that most of them do not realy care what you do as long as you keep them inside. Round here due to jail overcrowding violent offenders are being realeased earlier because of lack of room. Simple possesion and other "crimes" like public intox are being virtualy ignored as long as you don't act like a complete asshole if you ever get stopped.
And they are only doing their job of enforcing laws passed by the legislatures. My contemt is held for the politicians.

When I was 13, me and my mom got pulled over on a lonely Ga road by an asshole pig.
He pulled up beside us in the road (we were pulled completely off to the right). Got out of the car and ran up to us screaming at my mom. She was doing 65 in a 55, It didn't seem like that big of a deal.
A few mins into the unprovoked verbal assault, two vehicles approach from each direction one is a chevy blazer the other was an old vette. The cop looks up at the blazer, steps out into the road and yells "go around you fucking idiot". The guy in the blazer rolled his eyes and started to go around. About that time the guy in the vette was coming through.
They hit head on right in front of us. The corvette went up under the blazer and launched it into the air. The blazer did an end over end flip and threw the lady passenger to the pavement, killed her. The drivers of both vehicles survived but the vette driver was beat up pretty bad. When the blazer landed right side up the guy got out of the car, in a daze he started walking over to the woman that was laying motionless in the road. He got on his knees, threw up and then passed out beside her. The cop jumped in his patrol car and moved it out of the way. Me and my mom pulled the guy out of the vette which was beginning to catch fire. The cop just sat in his car on the radio.
Btw, the blazer had "just married" written on the rear window.
After all of this, the department did an internal "investigation". Well, despite me, my mom and the blazer driver giving statements on exactly what happened. They found no wrong doing on the officers part.
At a young age I learned not to trust the judgment of a cop, and that belief has been validated over and over. I've met one or two good ones, but they can't make up for the vast majority of cops that are complete scumbags.

I would rather have people trained to deal with unlawful behavior running around than lynch mobs.
If you find fault with the police it is because you don't agree with the local laws that govern you, it isn't the officer's fault that they have to enforce them.
Do you argue with the girl at McDonalds because she charges $5 for a happy meal? No because she charges what she is told to charge.
Consider yourself lucky you have police, be happy you don't need a steel door and be fucking grateful that if someone busts into your house and starts raping your wife at gunpoint that you can hide in the closet crying to a cop on your cell phone till they show up and bail you out.
Look at the big picture, consider the worst and think about what you would do.
You'd phone a cop.
Ignore your ego and answer yourself truthfully before you flame me.
And yes I'd shoot the fucker trying to rape my wife, but if I could only get to my phone I'd be right on 911.

I try to be impartial, as I've had both good and bad experiences with cops. Unfortunately, I have to admit that being harassed just a couple times by the bad ones was enough to make me a little nervous everytime I see a police car. I've also heard so many horror stories about house searches these days that I'd even be hesitant to call the cops if was in need of help.

Most of the cops I've met are fairly decent people, some are assholes though. Overall I like cops but have very little interaction with them.

Some are wankers, some aren't. I've never had to deal with a dickhead cop so I'm impartial.

I think people have to keep in mind that some cops are VERY good people and would never arrest someone for a stupidity such as cannabis or psilocybe mushrooms. Although, sadly, a lot of them seem to be uneducated and very robotic (incapable of change and compromise that is.). I disagree with certain laws much more than policemen themselves come to think of it

Its like politics. Its a necessary evil but the type of person that wants to pursue that career usually does it to indulge their ego, to have power over people. Or at least thats the impression they give me.

I've had to deal with cops since I was 7 years old. I feel bad for them as people. They are programmed to always find something wrong with someone but the ones I've dealt with have "caused" things to get way worse because they are dick heads. I've also dealt with really good cops, I think it all depends on the individual, but the system as a whole is NOT RIGHT! FUCK THE COPS AS A WHOLE, but there is good cops.

FUCK COPS. I know it isn't rational to think they are all bad, and i know they aren't. I know that they do help maintain some amount of order. But EVERY SINGLE run in i have ever had with a cop they were the biggest douche possible. Not in the "they're a cop trying to catch a criminal they have to be this way douche", just they were fundamentally tools in everyway.
And its not even cuz i was doing drugs everytime and they were trying to catch me, when I got a ticket for driving he was a douche; when i got a ticket for disorderly conduct he was a douche (and the disorderly conduct was a facebook video the school suspended me for, this was a school cop). The one time i did get caught for weed i got stopped for "being white", although i was doing nothing wrong driving or was even smoking at the time. Forced me out the car and found a gram in my pocket, then proceeded to search/impound the car and arrest me.. douche.

Some of them are okay/tolerable/just-doing-their-job.
However, most of the cops I've met are on a serious power trip.. and for that they get two thumbs down.

State cops I've dealt with seem professional. Small town cops and reservists have almost universally been pricks. I worked with this one reservist who used to brag about sneaking through the bushes at a park to catch teenagers smoking pot. What a douche-bag.

As much as I don't like aspects of law enforcement. I recognize the need for them. Can you imagine all the backwoods inbred ignorant illiterate mutant one tooth garbage of the world unrestrained?

I'm sure a lot of cops are pretty decent people, but it sucks that the bad ones often seem to be able to act with impunity. There are probably also systemic factors that lead to the hiring of a greater proportion of conformity-loving meatheads than you would see in the general population, the drug war being a big one. If you see the drug war as a tragic waste of life and resources, you're probably going to be less likely to want a job where you will be expected to enforce those laws on a daily basis.

The city one's around here dont bother me.. there on the lazy side. I buzz by the same ones every day at 55-60 in a 45mph limit and they never move.. Too much paperwork i guess.. No on the oppisite end, state troopers are at the opposite end of the spectrum ... total dicks. I used to get pulled over every other month for the window tint on my firebird. I started keeping the paperwork saying "its been tested and its legal" with me for these assholes.
