G-bodys are a "thug" car if you wanna go on stereotypes, turbo regals look especially thugged out and agressive to the normal person.
Anyone else had enough of the way cops are being treated these days

I disagree.
Although gbody's are used as donks, people with a little common sense will know that the difference between one and the other is the size of the rims. You put a gn with regular wheels next to one with 24's or 26's or whatever they are using now, people can tell which one belongs to who. We can argue about injustices all day brother and you will never change your mind and i won't change mine either. Just do us all a favor. If ever you find yourself in a life or death situation, dont call the police, as a matter of fact, stay away from us because destiny can never be changed. You live by the sword, you die by the sword.

Who is "us", close minded, well trained, blind idiots who will follow there owners off a cliff like a loyal dog? I wouldnt wanna be around any brain washed idiots.
hey Mackinblack, why don't you do an objective research and find out how many times judges gave out harsher sentences for dirty cops, while stating that they are doing so because these former cops betrayed trust of the people. Never heard that cops are being held to a higher standard? Or you just skipped that and found examples that fit your agenda.
Not that I defend dirty cops. Fuck them. I don't want one sitting in a car next to me.
Did you read into those cases? Maybe there were more reasons that sentences were light? Questionable victim/witness? Weak case?
Low bail? Bail is not a punishment, but merely an insurance that the defendant will return to court. If there is a danger to society there is no bail. Defendants are remanded.

Us is humanity. Go ahead and follow who you want to follow or dont follow anyone. Doesn't matter because i am extremely positive that your way of thinking is the minority in this world. Injustices are everywhere. You just choose to follow the bad in law enforcement which there is, won't argue there. Guess what, we are human and humanity is flawed in many ways. I wish you luck bud.

I don't always wipe my ass enough, and interrupt people, your logic still doesn't explain why its ok for police to break the law, and get slap on the wrists, if prosecuted at all. Funny you would bring up humanity, when you have zero empathy for people because they don't look , or think like you, or come from a different backround, but guess what, there human too.
I'll let you have the last word. Good luck sir

I have been all over the country and have usually had interaction with law enforcement in every area I lived in. Doing pipeline construction, we would often hire police officers to work security or escort for pipe & heavy equipment. Most of those guys were awesome people, many of which I developed friendships with and still am in contact with frequently. With that in mind, in most every town, there was an officer or two, usually at a city police level, but not always, that was an arrogant ass.
In my home town, the parish (county) police department is awesome. Those guys are very professional and go after actual crime. They don't run the typical revenue generating things like insurance checkpoints or window tint stops. Sure, they may use tint and the like as PC for a stop, but it's on a hoopty that likely has a drug dealer driving it. The city & state police, on the other hand. live to do nothing but insurance or tint stops and the like.
Just one instance that was beyond ridiculous (IMO) was one night on my way home, I was stopped for tint. Yes, my windows are black as the ace of spades. But I have a prescription, so it is legal. Regardless, not 1, not 2, but 6 cars with multiple officers per car stopped me. "You know why we pulled you over, boy?" was the opening question from the approaching officer. Now knowing the town I live in all too well, I knew why. I hoped I was wrong, but I wasn't. "Does my car match the description of a high profile criminal? Or was it for window tint?" was my reply. And yes, the stop was for tint. Only. Nothing else. You might be asking yourself if my town is so shitty that it takes 12+ officers in 6 squad cars to make a tint stop. No. It's not. They were bored and it was a slow night. I got to listen to them yammer on about how my (state issued, doctor written) prescription wasn't legal, that I couldn't tint my windows, blah, blah blah. This went on for several minutes. Finally, I told them to just write me the ticket if it was illegal and I would take it up with the judge on my court date. More yammering about how illegal it was and so on, but oddly enough they wouldn't write me a ticket. Finally, they let me go on my way. But it wasn't until someone else drove by with tinted glass and off they were, to grab up that guy. Now before it is suggested that they are instructed to do these things, I will say I doubt they are. A lot of the city guys think it's a chicken shit style of "law enforcement" and reserved for those who don't want to do actual police work.
The state police have a lot of guys who also have an admitted hard-on for tint. My best stop on that was on a trip to pick up my stepchildren from daycare, I pass an state officer going the other way on a somewhat narrow road. I am not speeding, nor is there a BOLO for a vehicle matching the description of mine. This guy finds it necessary to flip a U-turn and go into full pursuit mode, traveling WAAAAAY over the speed limit to catch me, to the point he damn near rear ended me. As he topped a hill, I was below the crest, stopped, waiting to turn left into the parking lot of the daycare. He had to go into the shoulder to keep from hitting me. Over tint. Seriously? This moron lived within a mile of the daycare, so he knew at 3:45pm people would be all over the place with kids. And he found it necessary to chase me down like I was an escaped murder fleeing from him. And since I have a script, nothing could be done. And damn, did he get PISSED! To the point he actually said he was going to have to visit my eye doctor and instruct him to stop writing tint prescriptions for people.
My favorite stop was in North Dakota. I was traveling down the interstate at 75 or so MPH (whatever the speed limit was plus 3, and I think between Fargo & Dickinson it is a 75 or 80 zone since there is nothing out there). A state trooper is coming from the opposite direction and sees me. She has to wait until there was a place in the median she could cross, then come chase me down. It didn't take long for me to see her FLYING up my ass. Now let't think about that for a moment. She went from 80 to a few miles an hour, crossed the median, then took chase. To catch someone doing 75-80 with a good lead time on her, she is doing triple digits to catch up. And why did she stop me? Window tint. On a vehicle registered in another state (which she knew was likely the case since I had no front plate and ND requires them). She easily saw my out of state plate by the time she caught up to me, but stopped me anyway. She hoped I didn't know she couldn't write the ticket. But I was aware of the fact that she couldn't. So after lengthy discussion, she wrote me a "warning". I asked her if she thought it was the best judgment call in the world to take chase at the speed she had to do so in order to catch up to me, endanger people on the roadways and risk danger to herself and her cruiser, all over a window tint ticket she couldn't even write. The look on her face wasn't a happy one. She definitely didn't care for my lack of respect for her. But honestly, she didn't deserve respect. She deserved to get her ass chewed by her superiors and should have been forced to take a refresher course in judgment. But alas, at least she was able to issue me that warning then continue on her way, keeping the highways safe from possible window tint violators.
All of that crap to say, to the officers out there that do their jobs and risk their lives, I have nothing but respect for them. To the ones who all but admit, or even sometimes outright say, they just like to do petty things like insurance checks or seat belt & tint tickets because it's a lot easier, well, I don't really consider that very heroic.
