We were in the car tonight and here in New England the snow is really making it tough to get down the crowded streets. Well,we got stuck behind a cop car in the middle of the road and had to wait until he got out of the store-- a liqueur store-- were he emerged with a bottle of hooch! Doesn't seem right to me,to have a cop with a bottle out on duty. I know it's record cold out there,but come on! >:(

Yep I lost respect for the police a couple of years ago. Seems like now with all of the police brutality you here about all they are now are thugs in uniforms.
-
Because there are a few bad cops doesn't mean that almost all of them are not doing their best and it's difficult with the media and the Justice Dept (Holder) bound and determined to turn every incident into trouble for the police. We would be in bad trouble without them.

I'm sure there's some rule that states what this cop did is not to be done while "on duty." You could probably report him for it.

JJ maybe you shoulda told him New Years was over.Who knows,maybe he was buying his wife a late valentines gift or picking up something for the captain.
Regarding the few cops that ruin the whole force.....ponder this..i have put this up before....
A little leaven ferments the whole batch.
Too lazy to look where it is but if any are interested i will oblige.

Hmm, that is an interesting stop for him to make...and very irresponsible of him. Granted, he is human (as we all are). I just believe that the timing of the purchase (on-duty, wearing the uniform) was ill-advised.

He does not appear to be a law abiding citizen. But he might have just been getting ready to get off work after a really bad day. That bottle may be what keeps him from taking it out on some poor smuck. At least he knows there will be relief. Things don't always seem as they appear. BMaston12

There is always some good cops and bad cops, but should follow the rule even they are cops
-
I don't think one way or another. When I'm driving and a cop is within the vicinity, I just try to get out of focus as they make me nervous. I'm a good driver, but I don't want to give them any reason to ticket me.

Well, my husband is a cop and that would NEVER happen....you may not have understood what you saw...

Did you see the video of the man boot-legging cigs in NY?Did you see the choke-hold?Did you UNDERSTAND what was happeneing there?And if you did understand it what was your opinion?

Wow that's messed up. He shouldn't have done that in his squad car or in uniform. I would have taken a video and filed a complaint

People are so quick to judge when they clearly do not have all the details. And there are bad people in EVERY profession. The very same ones who bash ALL cops are the first to call 911 when they need help. SMH. Maybe all the cops need to walk off the job. Along with the firemen, ambulance drivers and everyone else working in emergency professions. All anybody does any more is complain about them and over analyze everything they do whether they are on or off duty.

Countrygirl,you are right...we all get ahead of ourselves at times....i agree.And then we feel stupid...even tho nowadays i dont think people care as much even when they are wrong.Listen,if a cop runs into a burning building and saves a person i think 100% of the people that witness it will APPLAUDE!!But as trhe scripture reads,a llittle leaven ferments the whole.....you cant deny there are some and it seems more today that arent worth a DAM!!So lets just accept the fact there are Good cops and there are some that think they are Wyatt Earp!!

they should set a better example but just like every job there are good and bad people.

I agree. I am just saying that people are quick to see part of something and then spread rumors when they do not know the entire story. There was a video on youtube where a guy gave a homeless man $20 and then followed him to see what he done with the money. The guy went straight to a nearby liquor store. But instead of judging him the guy waits til he comes out and sees what he bought and talked to me. He did NOT buy alcohol. He bought something to eat. Nothing else. So then the guy gives him more money. Just because you "think" you see something does not mean you actually see what you think you saw. It is kind of like the self righteous who see a man in church on Sunday and then walking out of a liquor store on Tuesday and can't wait to spread the gossip thru the grape vine. But the part that does not get told is he was only in there to use the phone because he had been in an accident and needed to contact the police.
People need to think about how they would feel if they were accused of something online and what was being told was a lie. I know someone personally who lost their job a few years ago because of a flat out LIE that some idiot told. And no, they did not get a better job. They are still struggling.

well lthat's wrong!

I don't know how cops act in other parts of the US... but everytime I see a cop, they always do a traffic violation. No turn on right, speeding, illegal parking etc. I guess they think they are above the law at times

Well,he came from a liquor store with a paper bag shaped like a bottle in his hand.It didn't take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out what happened.lol

I'm not the kinda person that rags on cops all the time. Honestly speaking, of the cops I've had to deal with 60% were polite and professional. 30% were kinda surly as if they were just looking to stop somebody to brake the day's monotony. 10% acted like putting on the badge made them the King of Siam. There are some bad apples in every barrel.
But I think it's obvious that this cop was overstepping his bounds by using his police car (with lights flashing) to stop a whole street of cars from passing,just to get a bottle of booze.Even if he wasn't going to drink it on duty!
