I like my GW, see him every Saturday during Dove Season and sometimes just to BS. He's a good guy and a friend. He also writes way more warnings than he does tickets.

It's pretty easy to start feeling some bitterness towards a system that is focused on taxation through alternative means. I've moved across the country a few times and almost every single trip that I've used a box truck ive been pulled over under false pretense to try and search the truck for drugs .........but we shouldn't write off the focus on revenue generation that many departments take... How does having a vehicle searched have anything to do with alternative taxation? Not sure why your quote is truncated, but the whole story was to illustrate how the trained mentality of many police departments has been away from protecting the people they serve towards looking for ways to extract money out of them. I called it taxation by other means to try and frame it in a polite way - government used to fund departmental needs, but now citizens do. Another way to look at it is "highway robbery"

LMAO!!! If that were true I'd have been pulled over 7 times today in seven different Texas towns as I blew past police! LOL!
