I got tailed by an idiot town-cop tonight, for no reason. Then after following me for over a mile around TOWN (1200 people) he decided to pull me over on the town square. He walks up and asks for my license. I turn on the dome light. While I was digging it out, he says
"I pulled you over for not having any license plate lights." I was getting ready to give him the license and said, "wait, can I get out and look for myself?" He says "sure" and backs away from the truck. This is the same idiot cop that I've ranted about before. He pulls this on everyone in town and thought he had someone new I guess. He's done this to me at least 4-5 times over the years, and also my step brother while I was with him, at least 4-5 times as well. We NEVER had a license plate light out. NOT ONCE.
Well, I get out to look and hold my hand down in front of both lights and say "well looky here Ed, it sure looks like they're on to me" and he says "well that's why I followed you for so long because I couldn't see them." He then says "I called your plates in back there and it came back to a truck from Flora Il
so that's actually why I pulled you over." I figured why would a truck from Flora be driving around here." I then said "well Ed this is America and we're free to drive around where we please the last time I knew." He got quiet for a second so I asked him if he still wanted my license and insurance. He said "no, you're free to go." I said "God bless America" out loud and walked back to the front of the truck and got in. Then I drove ten yards or so past the coffee shop that my father was sitting in watching the whole thing through the picture window and gave everyone the thumbs up out of the window. You could see them all laughing. My dad calls me from there and asked me to drop by. I went back and told them the story and they all agreed. Ed's a total ballsucker.
End rant. lol
