Not all cops are bad, but the bad ones sure do damage to the good ones, like this cop:

If the cops put him up to that & he can prove they did, I wouldnt be surprised to hear he is found dead of an apparent suicide,

The cops in NC don't have quotas but the State Patrolmen do.

And they still say quotas are a myth.

Connecticut's state police union is angry over a memo, obtained by News 8, that has troopers in the Bethany barracks going on a ticketing spree Friday to beat other barracks and win pizza.

The email, from Lt. Anthony Schirillo, challenges troopers to write 350 tickets or more during a 24 hour window starting at 12:01 a.m. Friday. The shift with the most tickets gets pizza, another message said.

Certainly a noble cause.

Next time you're pulled over ask yourself if you were really speeding or if the ticketing officer is having a little fun racing for a pizza party.

Not only does it kill the "quotas are a myth" nonsense it also kills the "enforcement isnt revenue" myth:

The state police union calls it ticket blitzing -- Connecticut trying to make money off of enforcement.

It's a mess all over. They say it isnt a quota but an effort to get troopers to do their jobs. So troopers arent doing their jobs? Why arent they fired?

Then they say it's justified because it brings the state revenue. I thought enforcement was about public safety not generating revenue?

All the while the union is PO'd that the memo got out. Why so upset if their was nothing wrong with what they were doing?

Rest assured peasants. In the end it's all about the children:

"There is nothing more difficult for a Connecticut state trooper than to stop a family -- a husband, a wife, a couple of children in the back -- for a motor vehicle violation, and hand that family a $275 ticket for violation of the rules of the road. But we look at that family and hope that we have saved a life."

They get pizza parties here.

Yea and MADD is blissfully unaware. The chronic drunks roam free, the social well to do single drink with dinner people get pinched, cos the cops have staked out the restaurant parking lot.

Cool.
