Arrested for corrupting the morals of a blogger.
You know how most women who are arrested aren't very attractive? And even those who might be marginally attractive in real life tend to look sorta bad in their mugshots?
Via @jammiewf, Not these babydolls. Whoa nelly, not these babydolls. I wouldn't kick any of them out of bed for cutting off my penis and burying it in the garden where the racoons would get at it.
Now I already gave you the Big Win from the collection of pictures so it's all downhill at the link. But the Hoosegow Honies (as Iowahawk used to call them) at the link are pretty cute.
And speaking of Winsome Slammerbunnies, America's Sweetheart, Reese Witherspoon, went all Drunken Diva on a cop, in a funny and embarrassing tirade caught on police dash-cam video.
Serious issues brought out by the video:
1. She is feisty. That's not just an act. Very Tracy Flick.
2. Also very Tracy Flick: She has given some thought to what it means to be an American, and what the rights of an American are. But not much thought. Mostly she envisions the Constitution as guaranteeing her right to stand where she likes and run her yap.
3. She's sorta trying to defend her husband (if counterproductively), who's actually the driver here who was stopped by the cops. I suppose that makes it cuter. Or cute-ish.
4. But darnit, she wants to know if you know her name, and if you don't, boy howdy!, you are So about to find out, Mister.
5. Her husband completely sells her down the river at the end and tells the cop "I tried [to stop that], that was completely one-hundred percent not my fault." I think this part is going to be An Issue at home.

And btw, Witherspoon didn't seem very bad in that video, not raving, not stumbling drunk. Just a little pissed at being pulled over and told to stay in the car. She even sir'd the cop, repeatedly.
I was expecting much worse.

You could score some major ass if you hung around the lockup waiting for chicks who need bail money. Especially if they were brought in on a minor drug beef or for public intoxication. Bring extra smokes - they'll appreciate that and it should help you close escrow on the vagina deal.

Second, I canÂ’t get past ObamaÂ’s wanting to limit saversÂ’ tax-favored accounts to only about half the value of what he stands to get from his post-presidential package. Based on numbers from Vanguard Annuity Access, I value his package at more than $6.6 million.

Reminds me of the video of Steve McNair, just calmly getting out of the SUV his dunk'en girlfriend was driving, being pulled over for a DUI. He just ask the cop if he could go, then went and got a cab. Of course the same girlfriend did eventually put two rounds in his chest and one in the head, but he didn't mess with da man.

For the hell of it I Wikipedia'ed her. This quote of hers had me laughing after watching the arrest video:
-----
Witherspoon is proud of the "definitive Southern upbringing" she received, which, as she said, gave her "a sense of family and tradition" and taught her about "being conscientious about people's feelings, being polite, being responsible and never taking for granted what you have in your life."

Haven't watched the Witherspoon video but I support her based on my declaration a couple of weeks ago that I've I abandoned my 'cops are the good guys' default position.
Unfortunately this means I'll be lumping in the good cops ( none of which I've encountered thus far but I know they are out there) with the bad attitude cops.

Suggesting that there was excessive affection between the cop and his mother, after he's put the cuffs on you, is also a mistake.

Actually, I'm a believer that alcohol tends to amplify what's already in one's personality, not create a new one. I really don't have any trouble believing Witherspoon is an irritating entitled scrunt.

Because there's no such thing, from adults. I've never heard a non-kid "Sir" that wasn't really "I deserve to be punched in the neck until it's all squishy inside, but I don't think you'll do it."
Also, mugshot cameras are pretty reliable oral herpes diagnosis machines. Lotta + on that page. Not that I'd be dissuaded. "Yeah I banged that Miss Teen [whatever] who
- and she gave me [disease so bad its name is African]" is a good drinkin' story.

I refer to almost all of my male associates as "Sir." "Yes, sir," "No, sir," and "Thank you, sir" are probably the most common phrases I use when speaking to another adult male.

A friend of mine was a public defender back in the day. One of the funniest police reports she provided me detailed how the arrested suspect "threw himself down a flight of stairs on three seperate occassions" during the arrest process. And yes, the building in question only had 2 flights of stairs.
---------------------
"Yeah - he was totally out of control, tossing himself down the stairs. I think he said he was doing 'parkour' or something like that. Weirdest thing I ever saw. Just like that guy last night."

From the National Enquirer
Auto mechanic Gilberto Junior, owner of Junior Auto Body, Inc., in Somerville, Mass., came face to face with Jahar less than 24 hours after the bombings and says he was certain “(Jahar) was on drugs” when he showed up at his shop.
Jahar seemed desperate to pick up a white Mercedes station wagon heÂ’d dropped off a few weeks before with a damaged rear bumper. HeÂ’d said the car belonged to a girlfriend.
Junior said Tsarnaev often brought in cars for wealthy friends from Boston University and MIT, and always paid in cash. What was strange was that Jahar showed up the day after the bombings wanting the car back early, clearly on edge.
“He was very nervous, biting his nails, agitated,” Junior said. “I thought he was on drugs, medication.” Junior didn’t report it to police. Tsarnaev took the Mercedes without having it fixed.
The Mercedes was not the car that the Tsarnaev brothers were in when cops cornered them in Watertown, killing JaharÂ’s brother Tamerlan, while Jahar sped off, running over his brother. He later ditched the vehicle and escaped on foot.
who's car was the white Mercedes?

One dude tried to talk me into being a cop while he was taking me to jail.
Posted by: eleven at May 03, 2013 03:21 PM (fsLdt)
My last encounter pushed me over the edge. Sunday morning drive back from Lowe's. Two lanes both directions. Going the speed limit when car in front of me was signaling to make right turn so I moved to the left lane. Siren and lights 30 seconds later.
Pull over wonder why I was being stopped. Cop came to my window and first thing I told him was that I was a CHL holder and had my gun on me.
He looked at me and said in a sarcastic manner 'yeah, so what? It doesn't effect this' , meaning I guess his intent to ticket me. I said, 'no officer, I'm required to let you know that I have a weapon on me' .
He ignored that and proceeded to tell me that I had changed lanes without signaling. He also said he was giving me a ticket for no license plate in front. At which time I showed him the plate which was in my back seat which I had not put on yet on this car which I just got a week ago. He then looked at my license and asked where my corrective lenses were as I had that restriction. I told him that I had lasik surgery and intended to have restriction taken off when I renewed my license. I even showed him the doctors script showing the lasik surgery that was completed. He asked for my insurance card and went back to the patrol car and returned with four tickets.
I said 'four? you just indicated three violations.' He said ' your insurance is expired ' at which time I realized I had given him my old card which expired 4 days previously and still had in the glove compartment. I asked him why he didn't just tell me and I would have simply grabbed the correct one.
It took everything I had not to go Mel Gibson on his ass and instead made him give me his Supervisors name and explained exactly what I was going to report. He hesitated at first to give me the name but knew he had fucked up.
On Monday I went to report it and lo and behold, Houston has a five page prelimiary report you have to fill out before your complaint is even submitted.
Straw. Camel. Back. Broke.

Well, if you just let him rot in the sun the place gets so stinky.
I'm sorry, how is it "an affront" for him to be burried? Would you rather he be burried in, say, Green Bay? Phoenix? Or are you specifically looking for some way to disgrace/desecrate the body?

The ones who get arrested for public nudity are usually the ones you'd least want to see naked. Therefore the reason for the law and the reason for letting some off with a warning. And maybe a summary spanking.

Yep, when I'm in a scary situation the first thing I do is claim pregnancy and demand to go pee. Then I invoke the Constitution abd try to bully an officer who is giving my beta male hubby a field sobriety test.

When it comes to the cops, it's always "Sir." "Yes, sir," "No, sir," and "Thank you, sir".
The good ones appreciate it, & there is no point in antagonizing a bad one for no reason.
Posted by: rickb223 at May 03, 2013 03:31 PM (pHivF)
I see where you're coming from and I largely agree, except for the title "sir". To my mind, in the context of a traffic stop it's something of an abasement. Using their formal title, "Yes, officer", "No, officer" etc is respectful without descending uncomfortably close to grovelling.
I haven't had a ticket in over 20 years, even though I've been pulled over quite a few times. Formality, and being honest when you screw up on the road goes a long ways towards keeping a clean record.

She was advised to stay in the car. She disobeyed that order and the officer did not know what she did while in the car, so he was in his right to consider her a threat and arrest her for obstruction.
It all boils down to "Do what the officer says, address it in court later, if necessary."
Why does everyone have to be an ass? No one knows this even happened if she just stays in the fucking car as directed.

Anyways, living in the burbs...I've had friendlier experiences. I'm not sure if it was a Chicago cop thing, or just because I was a teen. I do think it's funny that I was treated like how my black friends claim they are treated. They called it racist or profiling, but I'm not exactly black...I think it's just teens are suspicious.
Anyways, I relate to dealing with jerk cops. But if you did something wrong, own it. It does no good to lash out because you were stupid and got caught. I've been there too, and it just makes you look like an ass.

1) Stop your car, roll down the window and turn it off.
2) Light up the interior of your car like the sun. Every interior light you can turn on without reaching around too much, turn it on.
And if you're outside Florence, for God's sake put your damn pants back on.

Also make sure both of your hands are on that steering wheel *before* he walks up.
I got the same advice - put the cop at ease, be polite, if you fucked up then say you're sorry for fucking up, and your chances of getting a warning increase 100 fold.

Iowa let me off of that one when I provided proof that I really was insured at the time the ticket was written, but I had to appear in court.
Which was a really interesting experience...my case took about five minutes, but I had to wait through about a dozen FSA misdemeanors before I was called. I was the only one who'd bothered to put on clean business-casual type clothes. They were all trying to weasel out of fines/jail time wearing wife-beaters and pajama pants and fishnets and obscene T-shirts and boxers hanging out. Really? I know you're broke, but for less than the cost of a pack of smokes, you can get a shirt with no writing at Goodwill, you only have to wear it the once.

Chechnya? I guess, but that's rather expensive for what amounts to garbage disposal.
As for "no ties to America" that's true, if you discount 10 years living here, an American wife, and a brother (albiet himself a shit-stain) who is also an American citizen.
I mean, I don't really care where he gets burried, or if he gets cremated, or burried at sea. I'm just wondering why others have such obviously strong opinions.

I've seen that portrayed that way in books and movies, but as a kid...I felt targeted. We're all idiots at that age anyways. I certainly was. I guess it's different for a kid to act crazy than a grown adult, though. They should have the life experience to mature...at least a little.
I always wanted to bring this up when people talk about profiling, though. Everything black teens complain about experiencing (pulled over by cops for no reason, shop clerks looking at you as if you're a theif, etc) due to "racism" is something I dealt with too. It's not so much racial as a suspicion that youths are more likely to commit crimes. I don't get it all now, cops even stop and ask me if I need a ride when I'm going for a walk.

Always be polite with the officer - give him zero indication that you are going to report him for being an ass. Then report him - if he hasn't made any special notes detailing bad behavior on your part on his ticket report - he is in deep trouble. His higher ups will believe the civilian when the cop hasn't made a report of bad behavior. This came from some Houston Police officers I know.

Chris Rock had some awesome advice on how not to get your ass beat by the police. I think Mr. McNair and Mr. husband-of-Reese-Witherspoon watched that and took the lessons to heart.
Response for when the angry girlfriend/missus accuses you of not standing up for her? State "Someone had to be able to get your bail money together and show up with it in the morning." And after stating that get ready to survive a nuclear attack.*
*Duck and Cover is still good advice. And have a local bar to go to until the storm subsides. That is also good, traditional advice for males. As in "Yep, another beer;" checks watch, "I got to stay out for at least two more hours before I can go home."
