Whats with this crap.

Ho,Ho,Ho,First off happy whatever ya celibrate at this time of year.Just outside of my house I witnessed the absolute crap that we have,in modern society,to deal with.Plainclothes cop pulls up wants to check out drivers rego and other details,after finding nothing,nada,zip,he gives back the paper documents the driver handed over and say's"Thanks mate,everything is right,and,don't drive round here anymore"I know this guy is local,has wife two kids and life is normal for them.They didn't even RBT him,which is rare around here.But telling a local"Not to drive around here anymore"Is a bit over their job discription I think.Crap is Crap,and,I guess we all have different levels to handel at times,but, this surely is one that as people we should not have to endure.Mudnut.

I would notify his supervisor. Did the guy have an ID & badge #. That's the first thing to check in plainclothed cops. There are a lot of impersonators out there.........................._/)

Sounds like your government has more control then the people. If contacting the super doesn't work a call to the local newspaper might.

The media lives for stuff like that............_/)

Try sailing across the CA mexico border some time. Make sure if you do though you keep cash in a few different spots... they WILL board and take what you got to not go to jail for things they had with them. Just have to be careful down there.
