I have gotten beaten on three separate occasions by different cops over a ten year period. I just don’t go there anymore.

If you’re at all serious, then this is an awfully negative reflection of you independent of any cop(s) and what they did.

How the fuck is it a negative reflection on me when the police abuse MY civil rights? I am not the type to start trouble with the cops. I had my license and registration ready when the got to the window… each time.

Aren’t you the same guy that was busting on women in SAMA? if not I apologize.

But, a cop isn’t going to beat you for no reason, let alone 3 separate instances, you’re telling me you didn’t mouth off or anything? come on

What does any post I made on a different thread have anything to do with this issue? Are you somehow going to make a judgement or a correlation that since I have had some bad relationships and currently have some trust issues with women that I somehow “deserved” to be beaten by the police ten years ago? I’d love to hear your argument on that one…

I also clearly stated that I did not “mouth off” to the cops. Even if I had (which I didn’t) it is STILL no excuse to violate my civil rights!

Why the hell would you live in PG county with all of those “fucktards that need a beating” as you so eloquently put it?

My rent is insanely cheap, I live in an awesome location, I walk to work, and I love the house. Prior to that I was driving 45 mins each way.

Can’t argue with that. Let me know when you are ready to buy- I’ll hook you up with a Realtor that won’t fuck you.

The cops have to have probable cause to search your vehicle. However, they can make something up on the spot, and if a K9 is involved, the cop will say the dog indicated drugs, whether it did or not. It happened to me in Macon GA. I was pulled over for a tag issue, which turned out to be legal, but I was searched because my car was crappy and I was dressed like a freak in a car with two other freaks.

I was not ticketed for anything. I was simply harassed for what I looked like. The cops said the dog indicated drugs in the driver side door. They proceeded to DESTROY my car, and found nothing. I wasn’t ticketed, and no one went to jail, but my car was even crappier than it had been before. You have no rights anymore. If they want to search your car, they will find a way to do it.

When a legal search results in nothing found after your property is destroyed and a k9 signals that you do have something, I believe you have some sort of legal recourse. After the cops tore apart your car, you should have obtained their names and badge numbers and filed a complaint with the police department or perhaps obtained a lawyer. It may not do any good, but if you want to fight it, you can end up having the police pay for your damages and if there ends up being a lot of other similar complaints against that officer/k9, you could actually have a legitimate lawsuit. The lesson to be learned is: don’t dress like a freak in Georgia.

This was many years ago. I was young and single and traveling across the country at will. The cops knew there was no way I could afford an attorney. They just felt like being jerks, and they did. Although I have to agree with you that one should not dress freakishly in the more inbred parts of Georgia, it is total B.S. that it is that way.[/quote]

This also happened to me in Macon, GA. We had an open container in the car, the cops brought a k9 and said he smelt drugs. I know for a fact nobody in the car had or had used drugs that day. The cops tore apart my friends car, pulled the seats out, etc. Total bs.

Girl we were with had 2 beers in her purse. The cops asked if they could search it and she said no. They searched it anyways.

People, it’s plainly obvious: if you’re not a saint, you deserve to have the police fuck you sans lube. They are not merely enforcers of law and protectors of the Good and Decent, but also the true arbiters of Moral Decency!

To the police on the board: you have a LOT of horrible people in your profession, many of whom have done some plainly wrong and illegal things. I sincerely hope you can make a positive difference in society, and in how those affected by the scum view the position.

To the shitty cops: I pray fervently that every horrible disease, tragic accident, and unlucky incident plagues you and yours 'til the day you find yourself getting raped in every available orifice on the ground floor of hell.

Remember kids: the police fuck you, you deserve it :slight_smile:

Cops don’t need to know the laws, the just enforce them.

Really though, the majority of the time if you act like a decent person things won’t go awry while interacting with police.

Learned from way to much experience.

If they are called to your house because of a noise violation, they can enter the house if any sort of crime is in progress there, even if it’s something as mundane as minor in possession of alcohol.

No, they can’t.

I’ve been to a bunch of busted parties and you can just shut the door and they cannot legally enter. We’ve done this many a time.[/quote]

If a crime is in progress, they can search your house. This excludes infractions such as noise violations. If they show up and drugs are clearly being used, someone is being assaulted, a fugitive is being harbored, whatever, they can search around. There’s more to it than this, but if you’re having a party and its broken up due to noise complaints, that does not give the police probable cause to search anything. I may be wrong, but I believe that the reason for searching anything has to tie into the alleged crime in progress. For example, if there’s a fight in your front yard, the police have probable cause to search the people fighting, but they do not have probable cause to search your home for drugs or weapons. If they find drugs or weapons on your person, they might have probable cause to search your home if the incident is at your home, but I might be wrong about that one. I suppose if they found a bunch of coke pre-bagged for distribution or something like that they could do a legal search, but other than that, I’m not sure.

I don’t know what the laws in Georgia are, but out here in California, an open container in the car, regardless of who has it, is definite grounds for a legal search of the car, even if you do not consent.
