I just got out of jail

brandon said:
As I was leaving the 711, a cop started following me. He pulled in front of me and jumped out of the car demanding ID. I told him that I am not required by law to present ID and did not want to. He asked me if I had beeen drinking, and I said "Yes I have had a few beers." He then informed me that if I did not present ID he would assume I was under the age of 21 and have to lock me up. Not wanting any more hassle, I complied and presented my ID card.

Poorly handled. You ended up in jail anyway. You should have stuck to your guns. Bigger mistake was talking to the cop at all, much less admitting that you had been drinking. You blew it big time. Luckily for you the damage has thus far been minimal.

At this point 3 more cop cars pulled up. After the cop verified that I was indeed old enough to be drinking legally, he told me that I was going to have to take a breathalyzer. I promptly informed him that I would not be taking a breathalyzer. As soon as these words left my mouth, he slammed cuffs on me and threw me in the cop car. I didnt resist the arrest, but did tell him I would fight this in court and appellate court if necessary.

You've been posting here for how long?

When they say do not talk to cops, that is meant absolutely and completely literally. You say nothing.

You will forgive me if I point out that going out in public whilst lit is just fucking stupid. You should not have to worry about cops that way, but the fact is that you do. That being the case, all I can say is you basically went out with a great big neon sign that only cops can see that read "fuck with me". I hope for your sake that you learn from these errors.

As a former LEO, I can attest to this.

Yes, and I need to learn to look at post dates.

Now that I am feeling like a grade-A dildo, I will tender my heartfelt "oops", replete with sheepish grin, face full of egg, and a couple bites of crow.

Oh, and a healthy DUH.

You're welcome.

Sadly, that is not going to be much help if you end up on the wrong end of someone's pistol.

Until the day comes that police as we know them are eliminated (barring complete elimination), one needs to proceed intelligently within the current reality. That means giving police no pretext for paying you any attention. Consider just how dangerous interaction with police can be. I go down to hang out in Greenwich Village in NYC on a hot July night. I'm talking with friends and I make a statement about cops, an unflattering opinion about them in some form or another. A nearby beat cop and his buddy overhear my comments and decide to "check me out". They ask for ID. I refuse. They escalate. I very passively resist. This could very easily end me up in a jail cell. With just a little more cop attitude, I could end most dead. The mere expression of politically incorrect opinion before a cop could get you killed.

When in public, one needs to have their shit squared away because dangerous, armed petty tyrants abound. Attracting their attention is an exercise in playing the numbers in a potentially very dangerous game. Do as you will, of course, but when poorly considered choices result in someone taking an enormous shit on you, there is nobody to look to but oneself. IMO, of course.
 
I always go to court. It's the principle. Try to tie up as much time as possible in court too. Start off by explaining to the judge all the hassle you have gone through to get to court, and why you are contesting. Don't let her pass you off.
All the other stuff about suing for civil rights violation etc is a pipe dream.


EDIT: Aw jeeze, zombie thread just bit me.

lol me and my friends still joke about this from time to time. I actually just moved right next to the 711 where this happened. And yes, I do still go to the 711 after drinking from time to time. Haven't had any more run-ins with the men in blue thankfully

A lot of the answers to your questions could be provided if we knew what jurisdiction you were in, brandonyates. State laws vary wildly. For example, in some states such as Missouri and Nevada, there's no such thing as "public drunkenness" or public intoxication.

Asgard is briefly featured at the beginning of the game, during Lenneth's awakening, and more prominently during the events of Chapter 7. Swayed by Loki's persuasion, Lucian uses the Water Mirror to attempt to bring Lenneth back to her senses, despite her contempt. Loki uses this distraction to steal the Dragon Orb and kill Lucian, blaming the theft on him in order to lull Odin into a false sense of safety. After being saved from the Sovereign's Rite by Lezard, Mystina and Arngrim, Lenneth recovers her human memories as Platina and travels back to Asgard to stop Loki's rampage. Finding Odin slain and Freya crying over his body, she laments their lack of compassion for humans and pursues her opponent on Asgard's Hill.

Necromancer has a supernatural ability to bring long-dead forum discussion threads back to life. After having been flogged to death the thread may have been deceased for many years, and bringing it back may have scant relevance to the current topic, yet Necromancer will unexpectedly exhume the thread’s rotting corpse, and strike horror in the forum as its grotesque form lurches into the discussion. The monster, instantly recognized by all who knew it in life, seems at first to breathe and have a pulse, but, alas, it is beyond Necromancer’s skill to fully restore the thread’s original vitality. The hideous apparition may frighten away some of the weaker Warriors or Warriors badly wounded in former battles, but the thread is only a shadow of its former self and very quickly expires.

Unlike Archivist, who compulsively saves every forum message in carefully preserved archives for future use in battle, while Necromancer collects departed threads merely for the thrill of resurrecting them. Some say he performs this unnatural act out of malice, others say he can’t help himself, but no one really knows.
