What happened to the cop thread

[WWhittle]

It get deleted? Is that the CHP fail thread of the year? Make a thread talking shit about a cop only to find out he read it? Before court? Lol, good luck!

[slowgreen99]

Lol. I didnt see the issue with it. Damn i missed out?

[WWhittle]

Lol. I didnt see the issue with it. Damn i missed out?

I'm assuming it got deleted because it backfired badly. Lol.

[BIRDMAN]

Even better thread than the one where the guy talks shit about some guy at a dealership, only to find out that guy was a member here. lol

The more interesting thing I found out from that thread was that there is/are cops that read this forum regularly. I knew it was a possibility..but now know for sure.

[lilpanther]

Yea, it got deleted. Not like it is hard to find the forum since papabear has a chp sticker on his back window.

Which thread?

[DolSVT00]

Yea, it got deleted. Not like it was hard to find the forum since papabear has a chp sticker on his back window.

Sounds lke you may be douchebag tint and taillight, cop? Go check the tint on your co-workers K9 car, oh thats right the dog's got glacoma?

[lilpanther]

You pulled him?
Nope, I've just seen papabear's TBSS in traffic. I was behind him last week and you couldn't really tell his lights were tinted.

Best part about that one was when he was proved wrong. Hope this one doesn't come to that.

[Matts94Z28]

At least he didn't brake check you!

I didn't see where he was talking shit either. If papabear felt the officer was condescending and irrational, then that is his right to do so. We've all had our run ins with dick head cops and great cops alike. If you don't want your information displayed publicly, then adjust your privacy settings on fb.

[WWhittle]

I never once talked shit. Get that shit outta here.

"Weirdo", "condescending", "rude", all ring a bell. You wouldn't have written any of that if you knew he was going to read it and you know it. I think this is hilarious.

[PapaBear]

Damn right I would have. That's exactly how he was.

Of course when my motives are questioned I get a little standoff-ish as well.

Got pictures and video of the scene today. And yes, he was wrong.

[lilpanther]

If you want to know who I an you can ask SBM when you are at his shop.

His FB is private. But you can still see the page just no info.

[DolSVT00]

I think supercop should pull over every new 2013 mustang he see's for illegal tail lights.

Didn't you already admit your tint was illegal in the other thread? Are your tailights tinted? So, you are going through all this trouble for the speeding ticket that almost certainly would have been reduced anyway?

[PapaBear]

"Weirdo", "condescending", "rude", all ring a bell. You wouldn't have written any of that if you knew he was going to read it and you know it. I think this is hilarious.

By the way, if you consider this shit talking then what do you call real shit taking?

[PapaBear]

Didn't you already admit your tint was illegal in the other thread? Are your tailights tinted? So, you are going through all this trouble for the speeding ticket that almost certainly would have been reduced anyway?

According to the way the law reads my lights are legal. But I will switch them anyway and pull the tint.

So what "trouble" am I going to?

And damn right ill challenge the speeding ticket. He was wrong.

[ForceFed4g63]

I don't think PapaBear was out of line at all.

Randy on the other hand...

:D

[WWhittle]

By the way, if you consider this shit talking then what do you call real shit taking?

When you make negative remarks about someone or some thing because you think the can't hear, that's talking shit.

[PapaBear]

Okay Obama.

[WWhittle]

Okay Obama.

You disagree? What do you call it?
The tone of your post changed in the other thread after someone posted that they knew him.
If I'm wrong, why is the thread deleted? Someone obviously thought it wasn't a good look for someone!

Not sure man. Maybe once a lawyer said something it seemed it needed deleting.

Yes I disagree. There's a big difference in shit talking and speaking truthfully about a situation. I didn't call him any bad names.

Now get off my dick.

[PapaBear]

Keep talking!

And what?

[WWhittle]

And what?

I deleted that because i didn't want it twisted into something else, but keep talking!

[PapaBear]

Didn't want it twisted? What did you want it to mean?

[DolSVT00]

I don't think PapaBear was out of line at all.

Randy on the other hand...

:D

I hate cops like that, If im speeding, give me a ticket, i did it, I deserve it. Nobody made me do it.

Tint and tail lights, or other nit picking bullshit reminds me of what I deal with everyday, Instead of fixing real problems people go after stupid little ones to make themselves feel "useful" and to dance around in front of someone saying "looky boss, looky what i did today" SUCKASS. Do something useful and fix a real fucking problem for once, thats what you get paid for.

[WWhittle]

Didn't want it twisted? What did you want it to mean?

I think it's brilliant to argue your case on an open forum and defend your remarks about an officer that you still have to face in court....brilliant.

So, keep talking! I think it's hilarious. I can't believe some people don't give it a little more thought before they blast shit on the internet. Apparantly someone else felt the same way and deleted the other thread to help you out.

That's your opinion because you don't understand the department, the different units, their responsibilities, and what's expected of them. I will leave it at that.

If they are aggresive, and proactive, you would bitch about that too, would you not?

[PapaBear]

Still doesn't change anything. The speeding ticket will be dropped by any judge with a brain, and the tint and lights will be dropped as well. So what do I have to worry about? The way he treats me in court? Come on man get a grip.

[GreebeanZ28]

Wes Whittle's a cop!

[ForceFed4g63]

Even if the judge himself read the thread, what possible harm could he have done?? I don't understand how explaining the situation clearly and even citing the law is a detriment to him somehow... He even said he was going to fix his taillights.

I know he's probably some traffic weenie, and its his job to pass out traffic violations for revenue. In a world of no driving sob's, that shouldn't be hard to do and actually make the street safer. But fucking tint, come on. K9 cars have it and limo's ought to be pulled over on every corner.


And the latter is bullshit, plenty of proactive things they could do and be agressive about, there's a difference between tactful and a napoleon/god complex.

[WWhittle]

Not a cop, but a ninja and a supermodel for speedo.

Shit, I think tint is up there on the list of necassary tickets. I have very illegal tint, and if I get a ticket, I deserve it. A cop walking up to blacked out windows that keep them from seeing what's inside is no fun I'm sure. I'm not waiting on them with a gun behind the glass, and you aren't either, but there are a ton of N Charleston shitbags out there that are! I'm actually suprised there aren't more tint tickets written. (knock on wood)

[WWhittle]

I'd love to hear what ya'll would say if you got stopped for no tag light!

[DolSVT00]

Tint does not stop someone from having a gun in their lap and doing the same thing, you can hide anything regardless. You could have someone laying in the back seat if you have one and pop up with a shotgun as the officer walks up. The result is the same if there is intent, and no tint on windows does not and will not make them any safer.

What will make them safer is finding the bad people beforehand. You can make the same argument about gun control, the principal is all the same. All you do is un-arm law abiding citizens, and arm criminals.

[DolSVT00]

I've got stopped for no tag light, I took my ticket. If my junk was stolen I'd want the lights working so an officer who was actually trying to do his job could see to run my tag to find its stolen.

I can't argue this point with you if you really think that being able to see into a car is not any safer than NOT being able to see into a car. Really?

[DolSVT00]

They cant see what may be in your lap or back seat till its too late regardless, tint has nothing to do with it.

Damn you got a ticket for it? Lol, that's pretty rough, I was kinda being a smartass when I said that and it was also a little bit of an inside joke.

[dkbmxer002]

I've been pulled over in goose creek for no seat belt when I had it on. I think that's the only time I've been pulled over that I've cursed or been an asshole.

[Illusions]

Wow a thread actually got deleted on CHP... that's a first. I thought it was policy not to delete threads here.

[WWhittle]

Next time just run from goose creek, they can't chase you- just dont run towards n.charleston.
(kidding!)

Ive been drawn on in goose creek, the only thing i was doing was going to a junkyard in a bad neighborhood.

Its so bad If I get pulled over in goose creek I stick both my hands out the window and grab the mirror so they can see them when i get stopped That way I don't get a gun in my face.

Wait wait wait wait.
You stick your hands out the window so the officers can see them, and know you are not a threat-
BUUUUTTTT, you don't think tint that they can't see through is a problem.

I was driving my daughters Honda that had no tint.

[dkbmxer002]

I always put my flashers on, roll my windows down, turn the car off and keep my hands on the wheel until they approach. I see no reason to do otherwise.

I stick my hands out the window regardless of what I'm driving, they come up with a better attitude.

[WWhittle]

I roll my windows down. Probably because the last 3 times I have been stopped, it was for window tint and I knew exactly why I was being stopped.

[Mike]

Not deleted, just hidden from all suspected cops until after the court date. Then it will reappear. :mrgreen:

Thanks you saved 3 drunk drivers with your tint. If the officer would have cared more about doing his job, he would have found them instead of stopping you for bullshit tint.

[WWhittle]

I love arguing these topics. I had to sit at my office and wait on a late meeting and you guys made it go by fast. Thank you.

[Harry]

So with that thought process, you could be doing something useful with your time rather than making useless statements about people doing there jobs.

[DIGGLER]

lmao! been there! done that! got pulled over while cruising one night back in the day. (there was a local place where hundreds of kids cruised around to the point where the cops started running them off) anyways, cop was following me, and i knew i wasnt speeding. hadnt done anything at all. i actually said out loud "heh, there is nothing at all he can pull me for." blue lights. cop says "you know why i pulled you over?" no.... "you have a burned out license plate bulb. i was like no way i just looked at it earlier. told me to take a look myself. sure enough.... dangit. gave me a ticket too, since i was cruising.

[DolSVT00]

I'm training to be a cop.

[dkbmxer002]

I got hit for one of my two tag lights being out when driving through Richmond va late one night. As soon as he approached the car I informed him I had a firearm in the glove box and just for both our safety he should know before I reach in there (I did not have a conceal carry at this time and couldn't find definite information on how to carry a pistol in that state so I kept it in a holster locked in the glove box based on the strictest state I was familiar with). The officer held onto it while he ran my drivers license and after about 15-20 minutes came back and informed me how I was carrying it was illegal by va law. He said however, because I was honest and obviously not being malicious that he couldn't feel right issuing me a situation or whatever for a court date, take my gun and possibly hit me with (I believe felony "illegally concealed fire arm" when I tried to research and do the right thing. He gave me my gun and license and said don't go killing anyone now and have a safe trip home haha. No tickets, he wasn't an asshole or anything. I got lucky IMO.

[dkbmxer002]

To add, I was pulled over 1 month before the law was changing in va and he informed me of this as well. How I was carrying it is meow considered legally proper.

[DolSVT00]

I love arguing these topics. I had to sit at my office and wait on a late meeting and you guys made it go by fast. Thank you.

Mine too.


And Harry unlike alot of people I'm sympathetic of any person who's family member walks out the door every morning and selflessly puts them selves in harm's way because they believe in something better. And they actually do their jobs.

I believe alot of people join any force with good intentions at first, but there are those who evolve into "Judge fucking Dredd I am the law" and loose total sight of whats best for their own and the good of the people they serve.

Those are dick bags and you shouldn't defend them either, I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

[Matts94Z28]

I got a $440 ticket for loud music on rivers ave once.

Dead serious. T'was my first real ticket back in 2004. A friend and I were leaving work (Old Navy) to get some food. As we were sitting in the holiday traffic next to Wild Wing he decided to turn my stereo on and blast the hell out of us with some bass. It scared the shit out of me and I immediately turned of the amp as a reaction. When this happened it sounded like I damaged a speaker, so I cut it back on and turned it up for maybe 30-45 seconds... all was good.

Next thing I know I have a bald guy in a leather jacket standing next to me in the road!! He told me to pull over and wait for him, so I did. He pulls up in his cruiser and told me I was getting a noise violation for excessive music or something like that. So we get to court and both approach the bench to tell our story. I pled guilty if course, but what really appalled me was this officer claimed he heard me from inside of halloween express! How on earth would he be able to get to his cruiser and get behind me during the last week of October if that were true?

The judge cut the ticket in half, but asked me why I felt the need to have the ability to play music so loudly. I had no real answer for this. That was a good chunk of change for me back then.

Oh and almost everyone in the court room that day was pulled over by this officer on rivers.

[Matts94Z28]

Hearsay is Russ can put a car sideways in front of a cop and get away with it. Even if the car isn't his. Lmao

[DIGGLER]

russ can drive by a cop sideways burninating the tires on the limiter in third gear in a 45mph zone and then tell the cop he doesnt have any info, and hes not driving his car, followed by "yes, i have had a few drinks....." and get away with a "look around next time before you decide to do something stupid"

I had this conversation with someone yesterday. If a cop decides to pull me over and I take a notion to shoot him in the face when he walks up to my window the lack of tint on my windows wont save his ass. Period. Tint laws are bullshit (period) and you know it. Its revenue enhancement and nothing more. Same as the seatbelt laws. They dont give a damn about your saftey its just more money for the state/county.

i tend to agree with this... and it gives them a good reason to pull over people who would typically have dark tint. (80% of young people and the urban crowd) -which have usually been drinking/partying.
basically, for revenue. lol

[DIGGLER]

True fucking story lol. Classic beyond classic story!

i could almost add street racing to that list, but we werent racing at that exact moment. lol

[Matts94Z28]

Guess I better not put that 40% on my windshield anytime soon. NCPD is out to get us all! I saw a helicopter outside of my place last night too... maybe I can hide in the shipping container Joe just burried in his back yard while "clearing trees".

This thread went full retard. If you don't think limo tint reduces the cops visibility to see inside a vehicle when approaching. You are the retard.

I hate the fact that I have to obey the law and others can just do what ever the fuck they want and when they do get ticketed. They gotta bitch and cry about don't you have something better to do? Oh yea, its 4pm. Better look out for all those drunks. Not yet. They are still on the way to the bar for happy hour.

Also. It was pretty tasteless to start a thread about why it got deleted when you know damn why it did. Are the PMs broken?

It just amazes me how a bunch of awesome people in person can be cool and nice to each other in person at dyno days and car meets but where does all that go when you grab the keyboard?

Back when I had my 93LX, I got pulled at least 3 times a month because it fit the description of a stolen vehicle. I kept a notebook of times and locations it got so bad. Got a ticket and a lil more for "suspected street racing". Presented my notebook to the judge of how I was being harassed and she said "Have nice day, see you next week at the grocery store." I bagged her groceries back then...

Get on the loud speaker and tell him to roll the windows down before you exit your patrol car. Otherwise....Revenue enhancement.

90% of the extended cab trucks/or SUV's out there have factory shaded glass in the back, when its dark you can't see through it. Its the way it is, If someone has the intent of killing you they're gonna do it and could give 2 shits about tint in whatever shitbox their driving. Its a sad excuse to pull someone over or ticket them.

There needs to be a new billboard on I26 that says guns dont kill people, gangs dont kill people, drugs dont kill people.

People with tinted windows and taillights do.

My windows are legal,I literally have to keep paperwork in my vehicles because of getting pulled over by troopers, Havent got a ticket because I can show stickers and paperwork that its legal, but the douches still pull me over. Why is that? Revenue............

Ive been pulled over twice in the past year for a headlight out in two seperate vehicles, both of which have dark tint. Nothing was said about it either time. Then again i do roll my windows down pretty quickly. Both times I was pulled over were at night btw.

Had a story on our local news a while back about the Ware Shoals police department getting 2 tint checkers and how many people had been cited already. I shit you not.

Maybe you should teach Mr. Cop Catnip a few of your Jedi LE Mind Tricks.

It will probably save the future Mrs. Cop Catnip from some late night calls and early morning bond hearings.

[WWhittle]

I had this conversation with someone yesterday. If a cop decides to pull me over and I take a notion to shoot him in the face when he walks up to my window the lack of tint on my windows wont save his ass. Period. Tint laws are bullshit (period) and you know it. Its revenue enhancement and nothing more. Same as the seatbelt laws. They dont give a damn about your saftey its just more money for the state/county.

You are crazy if you think that being able to see into a vehicle is not safer than not being able to see in. I really don't get how you can argue that? If they can't see anything until they get all the way to your open window, that clearly gives you an advantage. It starts long before that anyway- knowing how many people are in the car is important too.

Guess I better not put that 40% on my windshield anytime soon. NCPD is out to get us all! I saw a helicopter outside of my place last night too... maybe I can hide in the shipping container Joe just burried in his back yard while "clearing trees".

My windshield is tinted. When it was 35% on my dodge, I got pulled over 3 times in 2 years for window tint. My current truck is 50% on the windshield and I haven't had any problems. You can't really see in it all that well, but it's not as obvious as the 35% was. How dark it looks depends on how dark your other windows are too, and the color of your interior.

There is a big difference between factory tint and what I am talking about. You can see straight through factory tint, especially when the big light on the cop car is shining into the vehicle. Or with a flashlight when approaching. The tint I am talking about is tint like my truck. Even with my drivers side window down, in the middle of the day, with the sun glaring straight in- an officer wouldn't be able to see jack shit until he got all the way to my window and leaned in. At that point, he is 100% exposed if I was a threat. How can you say that tint isn't an officer safety issue? You can say it's to generate revenue if you want, maybe it is, I don't know- but to argue that it doesn't make it any less safe is ridiculous.

My opinion is its my damn car if I want black windows it should be my choice.

[dkbmxer002]

They should allow dark tint based on your criminal record and with a good driving record.

[DIGGLER]

seems like the cop would simply tell you to exit the vehicle if he felt threatened by not being able to see into the car?

[ShawnBoyMoody]

To carry it a step further, its my damn life and if I dont want to wear a seatbelt it should be my choice.

x2...The problem with tint isnt a safety issue thats just a fuckin excuse to make it a law...The problem with tint is porky can't see in your car to see if you look like the usual suspect!

[adamcs]

I am glad I don't have these problems

[MARTYROBBINS]

ok so how about a work van with no windows or a box truck ?
I personaly could care lees if i get a tint ticket ill pay it and move on i do however roll all my windows down turn the truck off and keep my hands on the wheel untill the officer gets to the window

[MARTYROBBINS]

and as for the seatbelt i can jump on my bike and haul ass down i26 with my helmet strapped to the side its my choice to not wear it but i have to put on a seatbelt in my fucking 3.5 ton truck wtf

[dkbmxer002]

I agree the seatbelt shouldn't be a required law over 18 or 21. But I will still wear mine absolutely every time I'm driving

[BigdaddyDupree]

I wrecked a vehicle about 6 years ago where the tie rod snapped and truck went end over end. i was not wearing a setbelt at the time and it put me in the floor and there was a piece of metal trim from the inside that was stuck threw my seat. I came out with glass in my head and a sore shoulder. To this day i dont wear a seatbelt for that very reason, the cop even told me that if i was strapped in i wouldnt have made it.

[WWhittle]

Yep but not because its a saftey concern......more revenue enhancement.

[LXtasy]

I think DUI RIDES do need registration and insurance. I have seen a few mopeds do some damage to cars downtown. Plus majority of the people on mopeds already lost their license for one reason or another. It would be fair and just for them to have it IMO.

[ShawnBoyMoody]

I agree.

The reason they are driving a moped is because you dont need insurance, which they cannot get because they just got busted down from a Dewy.. My buddy tried to get insurance, required SR-22 and 2000 for 6 months. fuk that!

How about when one of those former grade school hall monitors with a Napoleon complex, now turned revenue generators with a gun, can't see over the door edge of the average lifted 4x4? Tint laws would be pretty useless in that scenario.

[adamcs]

What if there were aliens in the car and the tint was so dark that the cops couldnt see in and the alien kills the cop and wears his skin around town and then they have to send will smith and tommy lee jones to try and catch him before he gets to long island and gets away with a space ship

[DIGGLER]

i dont hate cops personally... there has been some pretty cool cops pull me over in the past. what i hate is getting pulled over 3-4 times a year for petty stuff while trying to get to work in the morning.
forgot to get gas. turn around, get pulled over for turning around.
they installed a "do not turn on red" sign at a redlight... didnt realize it was there since its pitch black at 5am. get pulled over for running a redlight.
got pulled over for not having my seatbelt on yet 1/2 mile from my house lol
got pulled for tag out of date by a couple days
came home early from work so i could get somewhere before they closed. passed the school during school hours. i never pass by there that early in the day, so i didnt think about it. got pulled for going 35 in a 25 or some crap. (nowhere near the kids)
got pulled for no seatbelt on the interstate. lol
thats just the stuff in the last 2 years or so that i can remember. there has been alot more. i constantly get pulled over around here. most of the time it is my fault, and i am indeed doing something wrong. but its normally just petty stuff and annoying when you just want to get to or home from work. i've even adjusted my route to avoid the cops in this small town.

[ForceFed4g63]

I will never understand the "I hate all cops" attitude.

Agreed. They are necessary and for the most part they are good peeps. There are a few bad eggs of course, but that will be the case regardless of what group of people we're talking about.

I really do think the tint laws are silly, just my 2 cents though. Why are limos allowed to have tint but not other cars? Do they think that no one in a limo will ever pose a threat to any cop ever? What about the vans that don't even have windows? You could have 6 dudes with automatic weapons sitting in the back and the cop would never know walking up to the vehicle. The inconsistencies are what gets me.

I will say I have had nothing but bad experiences with Hanahan cops, I think I've been pulled over by all of them at some point or another, and every one has had an unbelievable God complex.

[DIGGLER]

well, back in the day, they were saying dark tint was dangerous because you couldnt make eye contact with other drivers. like at 4 way stops or whatever. they didnt place it directly on police safety. they probably changed that story once the blacked out cruisers started getting common.

Oh BTW, a NCPD officer yelled at me last night for doing something probably worthy of a ticket. You know what he wants to yell at me fine I was probably in the wrong and count myself lucky that is all I got.

i never could understand why some cops take that stuff so personally. i unknowingly "raced" a cop on the interstate and you would think he was going to pull out his gun and shoot me. just seems like he would have been laughing saying "i bet you didnt think i was a cop, huh"
instead he was completely pissed off.

[adamcs]

I think you would be surprised at how much some of these cops aren't serious at all, it's like a fun little game honestly, and on the other side of that I think people forget how much bullshit some cops deal with every day of the week, I do think some of the laws are stupid but they are people too and I think people forget that

Oh no. Don't try and make a logical statement.

I don't think anybody here would argue with Adam's statement.

[DIGGLER]

cop almost ran himself over with his own car trying to get up there to yell at me. he was so mad he never stopped throwing insults long enough to ask me if i had anything to drink. (i had 2 or 3 of the 24oz. mugs at hooters) lol

basically, i was doing 65-70 when he passed me doing 80ish. i thought it was somebody messing with me since it was a burgundy LS1 camaro. so i passed him doing 90ish. probably was pretty loud going by him though.
i will say cops do put up with some dumbass people though.

[adamcs]

I don't think anybody here would argue with Adam's statement.

I would hope not, even though I was a cop on base people are still people and they are all stupid. I know from experience thr I have had days where people just pissed me right off and fess what, you just might have been the next person I talked to so it got taken out on you, sorry about your luck but it happens to everybody in some way whether it's your kids wife or whatever. Moral of the story is its easy to sit there and criticize when you aren't in that position.
