Did not profit.

Doing nothing wrong can just mean that you are 'doing nothing wrong at the current time' to police.

EDIT: Kato, Northers is as shithole when drunk too!!
There does seem to be a few stories like that, I've gone through numerous RBT's, license checks, and even pulled over once for speeding. I even blew over by .002, and had to reblow and blew under
My car never even got looked at.
Its got the normal mods on it, why is this so if everyone else gets defected?
attitude perhaps?

I've been pulled over a few times in diferent cars (usually shitboxes) and been pinged for speeding, given canaries etc.....
I've also been pulled over a few times and been given a warning and let off.

It's pretty variable I think. My personal er.....method is to just be friendly and respectful when Mr Plod pulls you over. Even if you get pinged your behaviour might contribute to the next guy being let off.


Not so say that anyone here was being an arsehole to the Rozza's in question of course.

What's hilarious is the "they are just doing a difficult job" types of comments
1) The police are not employed to serve or protect the public, they are employed to protect the interests of those in power.
2) See item #1.

Hmmm, conspiracy theory hey? Like I said, if you don't do anything wrong, the cops wont bother you. Laws are laws.
If your smart you may be able to bend them a little, but they are there for a reason.
Maybe you should look at some African countries where law and order has broken down, does that look like fun, where someone will cut your arm off because your from a different family, yeah great.

Conspiracy theory? I may have agreed with your argument up to the point of "if you don't do anything wrong" as this is often subjective and humans are incapable of perfection and we all fuck up eventually - at this point in time in the state of WA said fuckup may end with you being tasered 14 times by these friendly chaps.

Or if you simply ask the "wrong" question you may up on the receiving end of this type of hilarity: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bVa6jn4rpE

So no I wouldn't call it conspiracy theory...

The last cop that pulled me up was overly arrogant and asked if I had any identifying scars or tattoos... I bit my tongue to stop me from saying "In my pants"

Random pull up as well, not speeding etc. There are just some dicks out there.

Those cases you've described are extreme thats for sure, but I don't see how they protect the interests of those in power, they are perpetrated by individuals and I'm sure they were held accountable.

Haha the Police in most Western countries are nothing.

Wait till you do something wrong in the middle east or some parts of Europe and you go missing.. permanently.
