Yes.

hawk , i don't understand what you mean , some people don't know how to handle police, some people think they must 'confront " the police, that is the last thing you should do.
the police feel they must be "in control", so you must let the police think they are "in control", then the police won't shoot you or beat you up or maybe even arrest you, remember the cop has a gun, handcuffs, a radio, and a cop can really mess up your plans for the evening,...... "sir , i'm placing you under arrest"

My philosophy when dealing with the police: Be polite.
(It works too)

Dude... take off those PC glasses - I see the racial element you are trying to interject here, but it just isn't there.

This video should be required viewing in every ‘Victims Studies’ class.

Exactly, Hortlund. You have a much better chance of getting out of a ticket if you're honest and forthright (or you can make up a good enough story to make the cop laugh) than if you get defensive and argumentative. And even if you get the ticket anyway try to remember cops are only doing their job, so stay polite.
As far as fighting with cops, every cop I know just loves it when some amazinhunk wants to fight. Give a cop a reason to pepper spray your bellybutton and beat the hell out of you and they will- every time. Then they'll handcuff you, drag you face first to jail and book you on assault on a police officer. If you really want to fight somebody don't pick a cop. You will lose.

Absolutely EW. My little brother is a cop. He knows ways to hurt me that I've never even imagined. On top of that, he just keeps getting bigger and bigger every year.
He hits the gym pretty hard. I guess I would also if every day were "game day." Don't want to land in the hospital if you're having a bad game.
No question... Don't shreck with a cop, especially one that is in good physical condition. They'll break you in half.

Thank you, thats what my statement meant, but the above posters have been victimized by the thing called political correctness over the years, now they "search" for it. :rolleyes:

Alittle offtopic, you might want to ask him if he's into "supplements" and tell him to knock it off, you may add many years to his life if he is indeed using them, I'm not talking just steroids, I'm talking all the stuff the so called "Health food stores" sell to body builders....read up on the stuff, bad. For me personally, its natural, or nothing. All others are just fakes.

Like creatine and anotestin (uses androtestosterone- I think that's how it's spelled)?

Bingo. Not enough evidence yet of what longterm effects are. Having a couple surgeons as friends (my wifes close friends at work are married to them) and chatting over dinner, I dumped the Creatine 2 years ago. Still maintaining my weight. Never used Andro or steroids and still managaged to go from 155 to 205 in 3.5 years. Hard work has no substitute or supplement. :)

I'm not particularly worried. It took him fifteen years to get where he's at. It's been a slow and steady increase. Doesn't seem fast enough for supplements to be the issue.
Of course, I could be wrong.

Hmmm, good to know... gotta quit with that crap then I guess. Thanks Rip!

The Creatine isn't as controversial as the Andro, Creatine is in meat and worst case scenario, its processed in the kidneys. Andro is synthetic and its processed in the liver. The liver is something you don't want to mess around with, kidney's you have two, livers you have one.
I admit that when I was seriously hitting the weights (just maintaining now) I would load on Creatine when hitting plateau's, but now that I'm an old fuker, I just don't do creatine anymore. No need to when ya don't lift heavy.

i think i had my sensitivity a little amped up.. I've lowered the dosage of my meds.

Haha,
"Don't run . If the police have to come and get you they're bringing an bellybutton whipin with them."

Cant say for long term effects but in the short term Creatine certainly can help a lot. Used it when I was lifiting back in High School and it was great. But of course I lifted pretty much every day and would have done OK without it. But I can say my progress was faster when taking Creatine. I never used any other "supplement" like andro, cuz I never wanted to get near anything that even smelled of steroids. One guy on the team was probably using steroids and he was stronger, but not by that much. In HS my last max bench was 330lbs he did about 370lbs.
So I guyss the risks he took were high for a minor gain compared to me just on Creatine.
Now I havent lifted in years and years and am so fediddleing weak, can just put up 225 a few times- used to rep that all day before. :(

Thank you Hortlund. So true!

I write tickets every day for a living. What most people don't realize is the guy you just stopped in the car infront of you could be an honest, law abiding person as most of ya'll are or he could have a dead body in the trunk looking for the first oppertunity to smoke you. You have about 10 seconds to decide which one you have. You must be friendly and treat all people with courtesy, the public demands it. On the other hand if you drop your gaurd you could end up dead. I am sure that most folks have had a bad run in with the police on a traffic stop, there are some jerks out there. Most of us are good people and will only fight because we can't afford to loose or even come up with a draw and make it home at the end of the shift. We must win every time. I found the video very funny and I understand that that its intention was to make people laugh, I just want folks to try and look on the other side, it is simply amazing how fast a traffic contact can go bad.
This man was a close friend of mine.

Sorry for the rambling guys, just hits close to home.

Concho,
Ditto here!!!
I thought the clip was great, but ya know it had more than a grain of truth to it. It never ceased to amaze me why people figured they could get out of a ticket by being a real jerk. Calling me names, threatening my family, my job andf my life NEVER made me want to give a person a warning instead of a ticket. On the other hand I did let folks go who were adult enough to admit they made a mistake and knew to treat me like a person instead of a subhuman creature.
Final note here, and it is VERY true. NEVER NEVER think that one of these guys will take it kindly if you decide to get in their face. They DO carry a MAJOR can of asswhupin with them. :p
