If by commie, you mean Commonwealth, then yes.  If it's the other meaning, no.  >:(

While it is clear that most on this thread doesnt like law enforcement and some the only time you`ve had to deal with the police is when your sitting in front of the blue lights. It is also very clear that some on here think the do whatever they want to and the rules dont apply to them. I am speaking of the laws that apply here in Virginia only. I have no idea what goes on in other states. From what it sounds like is something different. I have no idea.

I do have a challenge for some, Come out on the Road, and do the job as I have the past 15 years and then we`ll talk.

On another note, This thread has opened my eyes as to what kind of folks that are on this website. Stupid remarks such as ,donuts, in the academy only six months, etc; really shows your intelligence level as no one here knows anything about me. Yes, there may be some good folks on here. Some are in this thread. So I have found out what I need to do.

Go read the entire traffic code book for Va and the case law that goes with it and you may understand where I'm coming from.

Why should anyone bother?   If the regulations are up to the "interpretation" of ill-trained officers in the field, it doesn't matter what the law says.  Only what the officer "interprets" the law to mean.

You still have to go by what the code sections means. Does every little detail, do`s and dont`s, about the law have to be written out? If this was the case, Then why do we even have attorneys??

Projecting just a tad, eh?  I reckon you have no idea what kind of folk we have.  Any idea what the smileys are for?  I wish we could figure out who you are, you have projected a veiled threat and promised abuse of the law.  It is police officers like you that give good LEOs a black eye.  If you are truly a LEO with 15 years of service, which BTW I seriously doubt, it is only a matter of time before you are looking for work.  Based on what you have written, I would say you dont write many reports, or if you do, it is a reflection on your leadership.  I would suggest you exercise your righ to remain silent.  It is better to remain silent and have us question your foolishness, than open your virtual mouth and remove all doubt.  Friendly advice from a concerned family member.

If you want to continue this banter start a thread in the Arena, a place this is surely headed if we continue this route.  Weve muddied up the Open Forum enough (IMHO).

I think we're to the point of  :doublepuke: here unfortunately so I'm terminating this interesting discussion for now.
