Why do you hate our cops so much?

Let me help your shit out. When I was in high school I used to play poker with some older guys, two of whom were cops. They supplied the pot, cocaine and beer that they had taken from people they busted and high school kids. They busted a lot of kids I knew and were always fucking assholes. No big deal.

When I was in college, there was a celebration after a college basketball game. People were going crazy. Some drunk guy ran off the cliffs in Isla Vista. My friend ran to tell the cops and in return, they beat the living shit out of him and broke his arm and clavicle. He won $125,000.

When I was in college in Isla Vista, someone broke into our apartment and stole a bunch of small shit. The cops said they caught the guy, a black guy, and all we had to do was lie and say we had seen him casing out our place. We didn't.

Another time in college, there was a small riot going on in Isla Vista. My friends decided the best thing to do was to stay inside and watch tv. One of my friends was putting peanut butter on a piece of toast when three cops crashed in the door, ran in, and beat the living shit out of my two friends. In their apartment.

When I was going to school in San Luis Obispo, everyone would congregate at a Taco Bell starting at midnight to eat shitty food. The guy in line in front of me was drunk. He thought he was owed more in change, so he grabbed the glass windows and pulled on them, shattering them. The cops were called and the taco bell shut down. I saw the asshole getting into his car while the employees were talking to the cops. At 18, this was the last time I would ever initiate speaking to a cop. I walked over and said, "Hey, the guy who did it..." The cop responded, "Shut up I will get to you when it is time." The guy then got into his car and drove off. At which point I said, "He's gone now." And walked away. I was then hit in the back, dragged across a parking lot by my hair and slammed agains a car. My friends, who were climbing into the car, were also hit and attacked. One suffered permanent back damage because he was slammed into the side of a car door. They charged me with swearing at a police officer and disturbing the peace. The judge admonished them.

When I was living in San Luis Obispo, we had a crazy guy living across the street. He had a crush on one of my roommates girlfriends. We had to order him out of the house during a get together. He went across the street and pulled out a revolver and stood looking at our house on the sidewalk. We called the cops. He turned out to be one of those volunteer dickheads who rides around with cops. They allowed him to stand outside of our house day after day, night after night, whenever in the fuck he wanted, holding his revolver.

At that same house, we had a party. The cops came and broke it up. My friend Jesse was too drunk to drive. The cops asked if he lived there and he said no but he was staying the night. They ordered him to leave. He said he was too drunk. They physically put him in the car and told him to turn on the engine. They then arrested him for drunk driving.

When I was living in LA, a neighbor punched a woman who lived in our building in the face outside on the street. The cops arrived. The puncher was an ex Iraq vet. The woman had done nothing and I had seen the entire thing. The guy explained he was a vet. They arrested the woman for assault.

So, why do people hate cops? Because a shit load of them are fucking assholes.

And these stories make a judge shake her or his head everytime I'm up for jury duty and dismiss me.
