Well....If you're robbing a gun store, regardless, I think I'd expect a little hostility and rash thought from just about anyone in the general vicinity....The only person to blame for their reaction was yourself...

i was unarmed and in a police vehicle in custody, give me a break. attempted robbery is grounds for attempted murder by your logic.
and yeah, i was given maximum bail strait no bond - that is as hostile as they are allowed to under by the law that they are supposedly upholding.

for the gun store incident my lawyer was happy to get me aqquited and i was happy to get outof jail. the media was actually against me because after all guilty untill proven innocent.
they went as far as to say that i had robbed several gunstores using the 'crash and dash method', even though my MO was not even close to that.
nope, once i was out of jail i just decided to stay out of jail.
and no, i did not go to jail for the pot incident. just a holding cell, processing, then ROR directly after.

Man i know a few cops, and not all are bad, in fact one is a very good friend of mine and you couldn't meet a nicer and sweeter girl. However, i have seen serious BS, misuse and abuse of force.
I tired of going through the stories but I had one friend cross eight mile 10 feet outside the crosswalk, a cop run a red light, and then give him a jaywalking ticket. i have also seen cops mace friends that were handcuffed and in one case restrained in a chair and made to sit and suffer. ( the reason for being restrain was for merely telling a cop that the law was a responsibilty and not just a job) The one who was restrained also has permanent eye damage.
I have also seen a cop car riding half on the curb and half on a major street(anyone to the suburbs of detroit hear of Gratiot?). When the car passed by and turned down the street, still half riding the curb mind you, the driving officer had a 40 in one hand the wheel in the other. The passenger officer had a cigar( Even though i believe it was something else.)
But not all officers are bad.

Physcology is a dangerous thing
when you give a physcologist a badge and a gun you call them a POLICE (peace?) Officer....
There's this lovely thing called Physcology and when it came around there were these people... we'll call them Pharisees... they decided that since they have this amazing knowledge of the workings of man, and how is mind quarks they took it upon themselves to cleanse the world.. and install what is now called religeon.. or "proper physcology" the problem with these pharisees are they don't understand that the mind has free-will (DUH!) and that even though someone might be messed up, they aren't like that forever...
I have an example to present.. please follow and I hope you understand.
If you're in a bad mood the last thing you usually want is someone to point out that fact... correct?
What does pointing it out do?...
Well that's simple...
It makes you MORE angry....
If we want the world to fix itself.. we need to do just that... LET "IT" fix itself... we need to abstain from this place and our ideals of right and wrong, and the wrong will finally become evident. For no one truly good stays evil when they are not bothered.
Who cares about the end of the world.. I'm more interested in its beginnings... How we decided what was what, and how we coped with the emotional traumas, we had to train ourselves dramatically to keep pushing on, especially without technology. Watching everyone around you die and still looking forward to the future.. Perhaps we should all take something to change our perceptions and put ourselves in the shoes of our true forefathers.

THAT (italisized) might have set them off. See, generally, when you're stealing guns, that means they might be loaded. I'm sorry if the officers didn't treat you with respect out of fear of perforation.
in the first incident, the pigs opened up the car door and orderd me to run after my initial visit to the judge. they TOLD me to run, im sure so they could shoot me in the back.
Clearly! After your initial visit to the judge for a firearms felony, they told you to run, not because they wanted you out of their car, but because they wanted to shoot you. Ever occur to you that it would be much easy to ride you out somewhere remote, whip out a .22 and put into the back of your head? Your hostility comes from the fact that these guys are trying to stop your criminal enterprise.
the second time, the one for weed, the cops kept the good weed and busted me with the schwagg (low quality marijuana).
let me guess, they were searching you and the OFFICER foudn your weed and stuffed it in a pocket. That must mean it's keeping it for himself. If he were busting you for it, we would have thrown it somewhere else aside from his convinient and out-of-your-reach pocket!
in the second incident i had a gun to my head even though i was obviously unarmed, and hancuffed before i was arested.
Let's see...an officer runs your name, sees attempt robbery of a GUN STORE... what's he going to do, take your word on it? No, he's going to search you nice and thorough, and keep you at gun point incase you got any nasty tricks ready.
i dont know if all cops are corrupt, but every one i have ever dealt with was.
It's hilarious hearing how all police are corrupt, especially from people on the other side of the thin blue line. You've never been an officer. You don't know what it takes, dealing with a hostile public. Dealing with the dregs, the wifebeaters, petty thieves and crackheads. Goign out each night, and knowing that some punk with a .45 would end your life to duck a 70$ ticket.
Judge not, lest ye be judged.

One of my co-workers had her radio stolen out of her car, AT WORK! She calls the pigs and they tell her that someone will be out in an hour. Damn near 2 hours later, a pig finally shows up. When they stole my cd player out of my car, the pigs told me that there was nothing they could do. I asked the lazy bastards to come dust my car for prints, and the pigs say that it wouldn't really do anything. Wow, great service.

Damn, poor service. I guess next tiem, they'll drop whatever they're doing- taking dealers off the street, arresting gang members, trying to solve murders- and run right to your rescue!
Hey, let me ask you this...do you touch the inside of your car?
If the answer is yes, then your prints are EVERYWHERE!
Does anyone else ride in your car, and touch it?
Then their prints are in there too!
So, the police could spend six hours sifting through prints -if your willign to give up yours- to get a possible suspect instead of preventing your neighbor from beating the piss out of his wife. great use of time.
As for your associate who got their warrants ran when they went to the station, you soudn shocked. Jesus, man. They run your warrants when they pull you over. GASP! Cry me a river. If you haven't done anything wrong, then you should be fine.
Mayhaps next time, before you start whining about the people keeping you safe at night do their jobs, why don't you try walking a mile in their shoes?

obviously you have never been busted.
they give you a receipt for everything they take. they gave me a receipt for my schwagg, not my KB. 2.5 ounces of high grade marijuana is missing from my court case on paper.
yes, the cop could just take me to a remote location and dump me. however, since i was in a cop car, and known not to be armed, there is no possible way they could get away with it. if i RAN howevr, it would be another story.
