Uhh, I hate to argue with a moderator, but look in this months SCC. They interview a cop and he admits about quotas. I quote "We don't have quota's per-say, but commanding officers are aware of how many tickets you are writing. If you write 20 tickets in a month and the other officers in your division are writing 300 then it's going to draw your commanding officer's attention." Now you can argue that it might mean that he isn't on the job all the time or something, but that's not what he said, he was talking about that you have to keep pretty much around what the other officers are doing. I have no respect for that. Not all cops are bad, but it's just like the old saying, "If you do good work for someone they will tell their friends. If you do bad work, they will tell everyone they know." IMO there are more cops that put on a badge and get a supiority complex then there are ones that treat people fairly. So that's how they get labeled. More cops should think about how they would want to be treated if it was them getting pulled over. There's my 4 cents for what it's worth.
