McHenry County, but the speeding ticket was in Indiana. Was coming home from getting Porsche parts:-D I was just out in your neck of the woods around the 31st and 1st, I stopped at ISU for a night to see some friends.
The only cops I really seem to like are the ones I've met outside of their profession, ie, when they weren't being cops. All the ones I've encountered doing their jobs have been, quite frankly, complete *******s. I'm sure I've relayed the story here a time or two, but the first time had me at
gunpoint by ~10 cops while my car was being searched. I'm 5'9 and 147 pounds, dressed, not the type of guy you'd typically be afraid of. Yet there I was staring down the barrel of a 12 gauge shotgun, AR-15 and a HK USP. I got pulled over because I had a license plate light out on the 944. After it was over I asked for the original officer's badge number and he not-so-politely refused and walked back to his car.
I understand that LEOs have a difficult and potentially dangerous job, but also feel like there are too many that aren't up to the task and so instead of doing something constructive, like arresting drug dealers, gang bangers and murders, they decide to sit on the side of the road and write 10mph over speeding tickets all day.
Stay safe out there David.
