Mix that movie with Office Space and you have my job
I honestly do not know how you LEO's do it day in and day out. Id go nuts and
start shooting the retards on a daily basis. I can not stand people in general and
I know I couldn't deal with the exceptionally stupid people on a daily basis.
Appreciate all you Knuckleheads do even when you do occasionally give me a ticket
for speeding or some other minor traffic infraction.
CO Highway Patrol though, they have never given me a break. I got 2 tickets in the course
of an hour on eastbound I-70 through the mountains a few years back on my way home from
Utah after being gone ofr 50 days. I was excited to get home to say the least and the 1st one
had me dead to rights and the 2nd one I was just coasting as I came out of Eisenhower and was
applying breaks to get back down to the speed limit. He could have used
discretion with that one, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. So be careful when around CHP areas.

as my family is heavily into law enforcement both on my side of the family and my wife's
my dad, my brother in-law, my cousin, my wife's cousin and her husband (killed in the line of duty),
I typically have a very high regard for the officers and all they have to do including traffic stops, but I do have to say that the morrison PD and the speed trap they have at the bottom of the canyon on 285 are taking it way too far,
that speed trap is all they do, all day, 24/7 it is ridiculous,
" Last year, Morrison police wrote 7,400 tickets,.....But bad PR can take a toll on a tourist town. A Google search of the words "Morrison speed trap" yielded 215,000 results." see article below

as a Bailey residents we go through there all the time, I don't speed so i am unlikely to get a ticket, but when you only have a few officers in your employ writing 7400 tickets a year they are not doing much else.

I see it all the time with Jeffco up here in Evergreen. When you have a precinct that has a single digit crime rate % and it's policy to send the rookies to the least "active" precinct you get boredom. There's a mathematical equation in there but I suck at math.
I see it as a 'fellow officer courtesy' like Kev said. Mix the boredom into it and if there is absolutely nothing going on (like 98% of the time in Evergreen- I know from experience with ride-alongs) they'll pull over and see if the other officer needs any assistance. I don't see it as a waste of money or manpower, if I had a job like that and the absolute worst happens I'd definitely want backup right there. Also I think just about every single agency requires a second unit on scene for any searches to backup the officer conducting the vehicle search.

I was once pulled over and 4 cars showed up, but I was just off campus, and a Cap was pulling me over in his unmarked. It was 3am and I was in a hurry to get some nookie. I looked around, saw one pair of headlights about .5 mile away and made a left on red. It turned out to be an unmarked car. I never got that nookie.
When I first started in law enforcement 20 some years ago, I heard that a lot of retired LAPD officers would move to Montana and buy property when they retired. I didn't understand the connection until later in my career, when you tire of constantly dealing with idiot people, tire of dealing with attorneys, tire of all the B.S. Then I understood: they wanted a place where they didn't have to see or deal with people on a regular basis anymore. NOW, I GET IT. Anyone got 1,000 acres in the middle of nowhere they want to sell cheap?

I like where you live. Your kids looked like they really like where they live.

Englewood responded with 5 cars and officers for 4 adults walking home from a friends house through the alley. What a joke the Englewood PD are. They are all about citizen intimidation, I got the Sgt in charges' business card and we filed a complaint. My biggest (and really only) issue with living in this "city".
If your post count is higher than your round count, you are a troll.
