Wow Mn Cops Are Stupid

[JDM]

Well I work part time for the Saint Anthony PD as a reserve officer, and plan to be sworn soon. You can blame all the targeting on your run of the mill civic doing burnouts in every 30 feet of clear space they can find. Police agencies have started to target sports cars for illegal equipment to deter the drivers from going out. Looking at it from the opposite perspective, it's not fair at all, but over the last 2 years, about 50 (not sure of the exact #) innocent people have died as a result of injuries sustained in street competition collisions. You may even start to see insurance companies deny insurance to sport compact cars unless they tech inspect them themselves. Another, and probably the main reason this is happening is because our cars are loud, and the generation ahead of us hates everything about our cars. Small engines, fart cans, clear tail lights, spoilers... etc. They call and complain, embelish a little on what is really going on, and Police are forced to do something about it. It's my personal belief that they are going at it the wrong way, but they are a publicly funded agency, and are expected to do something. So before you go bashing the whole law enforcement field as a whole, maybe you should be bashing the guys doing burnouts in parking lots on saturday nights...

After all, a cop may save your life someday.
