http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2006/04/30/at_wellesley_arrest_over_chalk_writing_leaves_a_mark/ I'll tell you EXACTLY how this went down at the police station. The cops got called on this, they figured it was a more serious offense than what it was. As if they were spraypainting and tagging up. So when someone, some fucking HOLE called the police station with all the info (and I hope that nosy cunt is hit by a train), they were quick to respond. It's probably some shit town where there's nothing to d--.. HEY! It's Boston! No wonder. So these Irish cocksuckers had the fucking balls to call the girls on their Cell Phones, and tell them "Hey.. you better get down here. The sooner you're here, the better for you.. OR ELSE!" Yeah, so they show up, and are given an ultimatum. Oh fucking really? Clean it up or get arrested. Okay, they said "Alright, we'll clean it up.. But can you at least tell us WHY you would arrest us?" Now, police are as irrational as it gets. They don't listen. They have their thought process going, and at that point, they're on train tracks. So they can only keep moving foward. That's how Abner Louima got a plunger up the asshole. That's how Rodney King got a beat down. It's not because they were horrible criminals.. it was more so that they were being human beings, and having the curiousity that is given to them in their nature. Cops expect a certain amount of respect.. Much to the point where we are all the children of the police, and rather then beign punished and sent to our room, we're sent to the local jail and given a record of some false crime that was only given to us because the officer wanted to show that "he meant business."
Well, fuck off. This is what I hate about police. They aren't being disrespectful to your all powerful golden badge. They just want to know "Hey.. what am I being arrested for? You didn't see me do this... It's in CHALK.. It washes off... What's the big deal?" To a police officer, they see "Who the fuck do you think you are arresting me? Fuck you, pig. You didn't catch me, so eat my dick bitch. HAHAHA! Come on pig! Arrest me! I dare you!" And sure enough, they go along with that traintrack mind, and only move foward to arrest them for a bullshit crime. Meanwhile, I've SEEN cops let drug dealers go without at the very least, a summons. Seriously, fuck off. That's borderline Nazi-like. And police DO act that way. Here's a personal example:
In December, some guy smashed my car while my Grandmother and my Uncle were in the car. I was driving them to the airport so they could go to Florida. It just snowed that morning, so I knew I was gonna be in bad shape on the way there (although it was pretty clear later in the afternoon). I was slowing down on the sidestreet of the highway, and suddenly I hear the loud screeching, and I got smashed. Now this asshole starts yelling at me, saying how careless I am.. Meanwhile.. he hit me. I had my blinker on, I was turning.. he hit me on the SIDE i was turning on... Fuck you. So I was pissed off, and I told him that if he didn't get out of my face, I was gonna break his jaw. He literally got in his car and locked the door. So now the cops show up... and they are asking me what happened. Now he runs over, and starts trying to correct me while I'm talking to them. So i go "Can you PLEASE shut the fuck up? You'll have your turn. Get outta here.." So the cops don't do anything to shut him up.. and he continues "HEY.. YOU WANNA PUNCH ME IN THE FACE?!?! COME ON! PUNCH ME IN THE FACE! LET'S GO!" So I snap. I'm like "Alright mother fucker, you wanna be tough in front of a bunch of guys who are gonna protect you? What am I a fucking idiot?" Now the cop yells at ME. He goes "HEY! GET IN YOUR CAR!" At this point, my back was KILLING me, so I didn't wanna sit down. I was like "Officer, I'd rather not sit down.. My ba--" "I SAID GET IN YOUR CAR" ".....Officer you don't unders---" "YOU WANNA FUCKING GO TO CENTRAL?!?!" So let's look at this... A mexican runs to me, provokes me into a fight. I tell him to shut his mouth. Then I proceed to re-state how much of an idiot he is, thinking I'd hit him in front of cops.. And I get yelled at. Not only do I get yelled at, but upon trying to get some sort of reason from these jerkoffs, I'm told to get in my car or I was going to be arrested... And I GUARANTEE you, the Mexican wouldn't have gotten anything. So I can totally sympathize with this. Cops are ignorant, stubborn, and live and die by the fact that they have more power than you. Some of them get off on it. It's scummy, I hate it.
There is a code that they live by as well.. It's where they use proper judgement before issuing summons' or arrests. Rather than go 100% by the book, sometimes they have to do things a bit differently (than like the time when they issued a pregnant woman a summons for blocking a stairwell in a train station.. When she was unable to breathe. NICE!) Way to go officers of the law! You showed how tough you are! You showed us! You showed the WORLD tha tyou have a badge and you aren't afraid to use it! WAY TO GO MAAAAAAAAAAN! YOU GOT US MAAAAAAAAAAN! Keep arresting people up there in Boston for writing in chalk on a sidewalk. What's next/ A five year old who's drawing on the sidewalk in front of his house gets a ticket? Or will you just keep allowing assholes outside of Fenway to throw things at, and assault people who GOD FORBID, wear a different hat than that awful Red Sox cap. Fuck off. This is why you're called pigs. If you'd act a little differently... You know, by following the code emblazoned across the side of EVERY Police Cruiser (C.P.R.: Courtesy, Professionalism, Respect), we'd be in MUCH better shape. Thanks a lot, assholes. It's just another black mark on police departments.
