Traffic Court WTD? Updated post #35
Krazycuda I'm glad you said what you did, living in a place w/o police was a reason for leaving. Thanks
It wasn't a place without police, it was a place with poor response time.
I was being harassed by the local code enforcement guy. He was writing tickets on me 5 -7 at a time for having cars in my driveway that I was working on. (And I thought that it was part of that city's heritage)...
At one point, he had like 15 tickets out on me literally.
Here, we got neighbors getting robbed, cars getting stolen, stolen cars being abandoned in the alley next to my house (more than once, a regular event), I find used condoms in my lawn from the local hookers parking in the alley to do "business", my wife caught a young woman in her car passed out in our alley with a needle still stuck in her arm, I kicked a guy and girl out of my back yard once at 3 AM (I forgot to lock my car), to find them on the news later where the guy stabbed the girl he was with (and already had killed her brother earlier), and there were gunshots in the alley next to my house....
And they are writing tickets against me for having a couple of cars on jack stands.....
A guy four doors down across the street had a motor home and an old 50's pickup truck in his back yard and they didn't bother him.
The house at the end of the block had a Dodge intrepid parked the in the driveway with a flat tire for 3 years, and they didn't bother him.
And about the cop here pointing the gun in my son's face, yes it's true and he did not do anything to deserve it. I talked to all the other passengers of the car. Aside from the traffic violation, they did nothing else wrong. Some of the other kid's parents were upset about it also. No weapons, no drugs, all my kid did was drive stupid. He went to court, got supervision because he had a clean record, and it was dropped after he stayed clean for the six month period.
