Originally in the New York times.....what do you expect? redistribution of wealth.

Joe the plumber was so right when he busted Obama. Now look where we are!

I earned my money the hard way. I have a Porsche yup, and other cars. My wonderful wife and I raised and college educated 4 kids, and now have 10 wonderful grandkids.

I earned my little piece of paradise the the Santa Monica Mountains and with hard work and long hours. I pay lots of taxes and what do I get back?

Yesterday my wonderful wife and I are headed to the 4th of July parade in Santa Monica.......a highway patrolman who earns $100,000 plus and over time and will get a 100% pension at 20 years........with his radar run 1/4 mile from my driveway on a 45 MPH highway that was 55 for 50 years shooting me.......and I was the only one on the road ,........all for that for extra revenue, and the quotas they don't have.

1 mile later the LA Sheriff doing the same thing I have very good radar detector so I was safe......need the detectors our here.

A few minutes later on Pacific coast highway in Malibu with very light traffic and a 4 lane road with a 45 MPH limit. I get hit by a MC cop with laser. I was doing under the 45 because I know they are there all the time. NO safety issue here.......just a $400 ticket looking to be written. so within 5 miles early on a wonderful 4th of July AM this veteran, going to celebrate the 4th with his children and grand children is accosted 3 times in his Porsche by money hungry cops......not safety seeking cops. Money hungry cops who see the people who pay their salaries are the enemy as their bosses push them for more tickets.
