Follow.

Yes, I know. Follow is one of those words that, no matter how hard I try, I keep spelling it Fallow.

5 patrol cars? For expired tabs? Waiting 20 minutes outside of a grocery store?

Complain to somebody. These are my tax dollars at work. I've never heard a fart can in town that was half as loud as the fucking harleys that shit around town all the time. I think fart cans are ghey but at least they don't piss off my dog when they drive by or hurt my ears at a stop light.

Also, does anyone know a lawyer here that successfully contests moving violations? When I lived in seattle it was standard practice.. everyone knew the short list of lawyers that made tickets disappear for $3-$500. I'd always rather give my money to the private enterprise of my choosing than the corrupt state that I don't get to choose. When enough people successfully fight tickets, the revenue service will realize that their easy money train has dried up to the point of non-profitability.

I had 5 police cars and the K9 unit pull me over for going 43 in a 35. I was 17 at the time though.

I fucking hate the police. End of story.

Thanks for stealing my cell phone. Thanks for accusing me of stealing my OWN car becuase you didn't believe it was mine (registered to parents, accused me of having a fake ID, and that James Ross was not my name). Thanks for pulling me out of my window and slamming my face on my trunk because I was looking for my insurance card, hand cuffs feel great. Thanks for taking EVERYTHING out of my car and putting it on the muddy ground.

The list goes on and on... when I get shit stolen out of my car, when I get shit vandalized, when people fuck with any of my shit they could give 2 shits less.

:icon_thumleft:

I dont know hopefully they save my life someday or some shit becuase I have nothing but hate for them at this point.

Well it sucks the dumb ass fargo PD were fucking with you. Taht is one reason why I don't live in fargo is because of them.

For the past 2 weeks I have been working night shifts and getting off at 3am, and on my way home I have gotten pulled over 3 times with in 2 weeks for nothing, just because they thought I was suspicious and wanted to know why I was driving at 3am.

[00vtec]

I think the only people that like cops are the old men driving their new cadillac car going 100+ and only getting a 50 dollar ticket.

[Gundar1]

I have never been pulled over but been followed when i had my old car.(no one suspects a 4 door civic).

From the stories the police are dicks. But one of my freinds dads is a highway patrol and he has helped zac(no_slow_clap) get out of losing his license so i have respect for him, but not FPD.

[amicheze]

I don't know why everyone has such a problem with police around here. Yeah, I dislike them as much as the rest of you for other reasons, but I've never had a problem with getting pulled over. Shit, when I drove the talon, it was LOUD AS HELL. I'd rip around town, squealing around almost every corner (shitty tires) and I never got pulled over once. Never even got followed. Never got followed in either grandma car I've owned, and still have yet to get followed in the prelude.

The only time I've ever had a problem with them is when things get stolen. They obviously don't give a shit then.

You'd think drunk drivers and drug dealers would be more of a concern and i'm sure there's plenty of them, but I guess who cares about that kinda stuff roud here...kids driving around are more of a hazard to public safety. The cops up here are just plain dbags. I've been pulled over much more here than back home...and I drive a lot better up here. When I got my exhaust ticket my car was never over 2000 rpms leaving the light, I know my exhaust sounds like shit, but it's not near as loud as most peoples. Only times I ever got pulled back home was when I had a broken taillight in my Buick and I was out driving late at night on roads that have lots of drunk drivers, so I was pretty understanding, and a few times for speeding, which was my fault so i didnt care. I dont hate cops...just the Fargo ones. My family has a lot of police officers for friends back home and we also order in all the guns, most equipment, and do gunsmithing for them. I respect those cops, they're all nice and would rather solve crimes and get worse people than kids driving. I think someone should look into that following and harassment rule, and we should start calling them in.

[ticklemedaly]

damn, i am surprised at how many people on here have problems with cops. I have yet to be bothered in my car since i have owned it.

[GarageAlchemist]

I was raised to respect the police and the whole "Protect and Serve" thing, but last night was absolutly ridiculus, and from the looks of it, it is happening to more than one person, i nominate Chuck to plead our case to the public.

[Colin]

I'm with jim on this. I can't count how many times I've been harassed because some cop has nothing better to do.

No cop in fargo-moorhead has ever helped me, even when i'm the one calling them to help.

THE EXPLANATION:
One friend of mine in the sheriffs department told me reason the cops are assholes:

All the cops that are in the police department (this means the city "cops") are 1 of 2 things. Brand new and out of the academy, or ignorant assholes. <u>Anyone smart or nice gets a higher certification/different job within the city to get higher pay.</u> The idiots and assholes who love the power trip are the only ones left.

When I thought about it, every highway patrol or sheriff or dectectivve that I've ever dealt with has been Business-like if not plain friendly. I've never had one be a dick to me at all. So I think I agree with my friend.

the problems i've been having the last month have been with the ND State Patrol...I havn't had a problem with the FPD for nearly 2 years...knocks on wood

[Guest]

I've never been pulled over in Fargo or hassled by the cops for something I didn't do.

[STiSchucky]

fargo police department is 100 times worse then moorhead.

i avoid fargo as much as possible

[Jim]

State Patrol can be just as bad... but yeah the detectives and all those guys are on the whole, pretty friendly.

Hmm, I've never been harrassed by the cops unless I was askin for it.

i got kicked out of Detroit Lakes once... All i was doing was driving under the speed limit looking for one of my good friends place on the main strip and the cop started following me... i found the place and turned and parked in the street and he flipped on his lights... biggest asshole ever... for being "dressed gangster" wearing a TMac Jersey and my friend had his hat on backwards... Officer said i look like i was a member of a gang and he didnt like my "kind" there... my parents got a lawyer and took him to court and of course he denied everything but i had a witness so he got into some trouble for it... but still if thats not harassment i dunno what is

just curious i haeard your story many times did you ever try and charge those officers with anything or did anything come of that?

[93HondaPrelude]

word of advice never have an air soft gun in your car... my friend did once and got slammed up against his car so hard it cracked his back window... even tho it was unloaded and had the whole painted tip... it was pretty crazy

I'd have pressed charges. Did they ask if he had any weapons in the vehicle or was it just laying out? Either way the city or PD should have to pay for the window.
