I thought he pulled you over cos you were pulling away from a known meth house?
I'm a bit confused myself.

Just stay furious at yourself, I think - we're the only ones we can change, Gneiss.

9th grade English? looks like I missed an edit. OK, time for me to bow out too.

I hope you learned a bigger lesson here than 'cops suck'.

You might be a redneck is all four of your tires were stolen from tire swings.

I had my house broken into and there were bloody fingerprints where the perp cut himself. All the cop said was don't worry about catching them. We don't take fingerprints. I am just here to give you a report for your insurance claim. It was so annoying as there is a deductible on the insurance and some of the jewelery stolen was sentimental to my wife. That is a resentment I let go a long time ago though.

Dee... he pulled me over because he thought (correctly) I had just purchased drugs at the meth house I had just left. He couldn't prove it though, so had to let me go. Though, he told me he pulled me over for running a stop sign, which was a big fat lie. I learned my lesson though, and it was not just that cops suck. I learned cops suck a long time ago.

Anyway... think I'd better get off here for the day, I'm a bit on the b!tchy side, and I'm afraid I'm going to really get mean if I stay on here. Adios.

Honestly gneiss I am not bothered by what people say who are active in their addiction, they will rationalize anything. I was simply pointing out that you had in fact broken the law numerous times that evening in addition to any commitment that you might have had towards a sober life. My feelings were and still are that your energies might be put towards working on yourself rather than sitting in judgement of others.

I'm not sure how to react to the obvious pleasure you get from having your friends play the role of judge, jury and executioner if you will...that I believe would be up to ones moral code. You might consider finding different friends.

Anyway...just my thoughts, do with them what you will. I do hope you give sobriety a fighting chance.
