Adding to what Nat said... it was only one of the cops that seemed to be making ALL of them look bad. In fact, the night before, I witnessed another party being broken up. This time around, the cops were actually being RESPECTFUL of everyone, and weren't being assholes. I actually overheard one of the cops say to another, "can you go outside and politely tell these guys to go home?" That totally blew my mind... and put a lot of things into perspective for me. These guys are just trying to do their jobs, they're trying to keep the peace, and they're trying to keep everyone safe. Like in ANY other group, it's the few that are assholes that give cops a bad name... ... ...
that is all... bChoi! -----Original Message----- From: the world's only living heart donor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 19, 2002 7:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [D] re: reflect on how rose gets violent when drunk (j/k) > I mean, ok so the crowd was antagonizing them but > did they really have to respond the way they did? > With threats of violence and swear words? true dat, but vinny, bchot and i were discussing this in the car on the way back (did anyone catch those whack accidents on the bay bridge ?!). the thing is, i really don't want ot have that cop's job. try putting yourself in his shoes. you just went through a high-speed chase, walk into a rave, and the first thing you see is this kid passed out in the hallway, with ppl just standing around him, doing jack. of course he'd be pretty pissed. on top of that, then turning to ask his friend what happened, who happens to be frying, wearing sunglasses, and can't even recognize that you're a cop, when you're in uniform even. and then, when you're breaking up the party, ppl are shouting 'rodney king' and stuff. that's pretty lame. i'd have been pretty pissed off myself. :/ ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/ ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/
