Seriously. WTH.
I see that sticker on cars pretty much every day at work. The thought of pulling them over, let alone arresting them, for it has never even crossed my mind.
I realize that I’m mostly a draft dodger with regard to the sexual revolution, but what does a sticker like that even mean?
I hope it’s not literal. That’s about the most repulsive thing I can think of.
He ended up getting the charges dropped.
It’s literal.
NOM NOM!
He would have been popular in prison.
Anytime someone trots out a variation of a “think of the children” line I become instantly annoyed.
I could think of more productive ways to spend a shift.
As for towing the truck - which he said he was going to do - pretty sure in most states, if it’s not blocking the roadways or illegally parked it can be left in place if the owner desires.
So now this guy is off the road for however it takes to transport, and do whatever he has to do to get the guy booked. If I was his supervisor I’d be talking to him about more productive uses of city/county time.
Cops, get a life, go find some real criminals to stop, do something productive.
Signed, a cop.
L.M.A.O.
It’s 2019 old man, the future is now.
If this law was applied more often we would see a whole lot less of this garbage.
TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242
Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, … shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both;
Like really, that’s a thing? I couldn’t even perform that act at gunpoint—and you mean to tell me people actually do this for enjoyment?
I think I’ve permanently lost my appetite. I can’t even watch regular porn and get that image out of my head.
Keep in mind that this country was founded by prudes who basically thought 1600’s England was having too much sex. Personally, I don’t care what someone does in their bedroom with another consenting adult, but I would also not want to be in a position where I’m subjected to others’ choices unwittingly. Free speech clearly has bounds and I think Potter Stewart would’ve upheld this conviction. It’s not “fire” in a crowded theater, but there’s also no reasonable connection to any other constitutional rights. There’s no right to say literally whatever you want as long as no one is actually harmed by the words themselves. Think of how difficult that would be to prove or disprove.
That said, unless this was PC for something else, the cop needs a meeting with the chief as to productive uses of taxpayer resources.
It’s one thing to have a complainant who’s offended by the vulgar nature of the phrase, assuming you have court precedent to issue a disorderly conduct or breach of the peace citation. Even if the subject disagreed, simply issue the citation, slap a strip of duct tape over it and move on.
No complainant? No violation so ignore it and go about your patrol duties. At least in my AOR, you cannot breach the peace of a peace officer. Our personal thoughts on the matter don’t count, only the law does. JMO, YMMV
Wonder what woulda happened if the bumper sticker had said “Pigs in a blanket…”?
Freedom is a scary thing. The cop should be arrested with the same handcuffs he unlawfully used on the driver.
I know some people have an overly emotional attachment to horses, but people are really this offended over eating a donkey too?
C’mon. Meat is meat. I’d eat an ass just as easily as a cow, deer or horse.
:lol: I guess since we now live in an “anything goes” society this would be the best way to explain that sticker to a 7 year old daughter who happened to read it.
I suspect the average 7 year old already know what that means…
