Cop almost killed me, so I flipped him off...

[tylerfk]

So I just found this site the other day. This is my first post...

Let me start by saying, I supported Ron Paul all the way, donating money whenever I could.

Anyway here's the story.

I was driving down the interstate and this cop pulls out in front of me from the shoulder. I had to swerve into the left lane to avoid hitting him.

So after I got back in front of him to make my exit, I flipped him off as I was exiting...

He then swerved across the cautioned portion of the exit to chase after me, and pulled me over...

Here is the audio recording from my cell phone... I added some images to make it interesting

Video: YouTube - I Flipped Off a Cop...

ps: his lights weren't on...

Good job recording that.

I hope you plan on fighting this in court and using the recording as evidence. You also might want to put the officers name and badge number in this thread or elsewhere on the internet, so when people google his name they will find this story of him being a douchebag.

Oh, and welcome to the forums!

[Danke]

I learned to never flip someone off a couple of years ago...could be a cop! LOL

Thanks, and yea me and my lawyer are gonna be in court Friday morning to deal with this.

An Internal Affairs Investigation was doen, however they will not tell me the outcome "yet" only after the tickets are settled. Why? I have no clue??

I also found out, this same officer is charged in a federal civil rights suit for beating a 70 year old man...

Not surprising at all. The guy sounded like he needed to enroll in anger management therapy immediately. What a pathetic thug.

Dude in Arizona got 50 grand for spending the night in jail over such. That was after he agreed to go home instead of jail after an incident at a bar. Cop followed him home with his designated driver. Designated driver and drunk then left and went riding around and he flipped the cop off. You can have them by the gonads for this one.

[Andrew-Austin]

If you would have pulled in front of him like that you would have gotten a steap ticket, but he has a magic badge so it's okay for him to "just make a mistake" and then harass you. Stupid thug.

[dannno]

Did he give you a ticket or anything?

Great job tyler! More of us need to stand up to "public servants" like you did.Let them know, that we are the public and they are the servants! If that cop had any humility whatsoever,he would have pulled you over just to appologise, and assure you that his actions did not reflect the caracachter of his department, and his position as a "public servant". Saddly, his actions 'did' reflect not only the magority of his department, but that of all "public servants" across this once great republic! The "public" must assert they're rightfull place over the "servant" as you did, as a hedge against tyrany and a police state in our dwindeling nation..Bravo!

Typical cop, but if you knew your place you would have licked his boots.

And don't EVER disrespect a man of the law again, you punk civilian. I hope you've learned your lesson.

Five stars.
Welcome aboard!
I'm glad you thought to record that as it went down.
I assume the nice police man was aware that you were recording it as well.
Prolly what saved you from some serious abuse there.

He was unaware I was recording him, though he wanted to beat the hell out of me... He was turning red in the face... Roid Rage I think?

In Louisiana only one party needs to have knowledge of the recording...

Whoosh, you got lucky!
That's been one of my theories on a lot of these abuse cases for awhile. I suspect there's a lot of steroid abuse among cops and it's just a fact that they don't help ones demeanor at all during stressful sitiations.
Here's a call for Olympic style drug testing for cops!
Get them dangerous needle nuts off our roads.

I also found out this "cop" played College football in Texas. He was denied employment as a LEO their due to his "aggressive nature", so he came to Louisiana and got a job here... Go Figure

One of my best friends in high school used to drive around in my car a lot and flip off cops every time we drove by one.. I'd always kind of freak out, but the cops never saw him doing it.
