I used to have a friend that had some of those CJ's, when ever you take a ride in that thing all these people would give you the peace sign every where you go
There's also the "Jeep wave." If you drive a Jeep then you wave to everyone else who's driving a Jeep.
It's pretty similar to how bikers all wave at each other.
It seemed to me that everybody who had ever ridden in a Jeep was waving
Family is back.
I just wanted to share that I've been streaming some 'body cam' show where they show the police body cams.
I know...
I know...
But, dude, seriously... I root for the 'bad guy' more often than I probably should.
So, Biff got a ticket... "Obscene words or gestures."
The short version:
A campus police officer (in Farmington) almost caused her to crash by cutting her off. She slammed on the brakes and gave the cop the finger from a mostly open window.
This, of course, pissed the campus cop off - but they now have jurisdiction off-campus but in the 'general campus area' (which is bullshit).
So, they threw on the blues and stopped her.
She pointed out that she had the camera on (we drive with a camera on much of the time) and that he caused her to panic stop - all while telling him to fuck off and die in a fire. And, of course, continuing to give him the finger.
So, he wrote her a ticket. She took the ticket while on the phone with a legal aid at my lawyer's office and decided she'd wait until she's home to tell me. (A good choice. We've got lawyers for this.)
The officer tried to take the dash cam and she told him to fuck off a number of different ways.
She continued giving the cop the finger every now and then, while also insulting the police officer - calling him all sorts of names.
She had to panic stop with a child in the car.
We're talking a three car caravan that posted up, so the cop wrote her the ticket - probably without knowing who she is exactly.
It's like a $25 fine.
We will not be paying that fine. I will spend hundreds of dollars on a lawyer if need be, just so we don't pay that fine. "Duress" is an absolute defense and the cop caused the situation of duress.
She didn't tell me until they were home. She didn't think there was any reason for me to come down and cause additional problems.
Me? I think it's pretty funny. She's got a temper and she doesn't care who you are. If you piss her off, you're gonna know about it. The cop is lucky she didn't get out and slap him around.
We've got lawyers and I know people. This won't even get written up in the paper and it sure as fuck won't reach court. We'll be filing complaints with the campus and the local police departments. I've seen the dash cam footage and he definitely caused her to panic stop. He's lucky she did so without ramming the back of his cruiser.
