I try to call the cops on him with my cell phone. Bartender doesn't want the cops there so he grabs my cell phone and breaks it, and then has his goons slam me onto the concrete outside and attempt to kill me or something of that nature. I drove to the nearest gas station and called the police, but the bar owner is friendly with those officers, so they investigated me instead. When they said they were refusing to take a report of what happened to me(because they weren't there or didn't care or whatever) I said that was fvcked up so I was summarily arrested for disorderly conduct and public intox.

The case of the Cussing Canoeist was thrown out. Maybe you could get some help by making your story known.

I just want it thrown out. I don't care anything about getting them in trouble, because I am sure they will have plenty of a defense and will try to make it harder on me. I'm just a bit disillusioned now because I've been a tireless defender of the police, and wanted to be an officer myself, but obviously not all departments are created equal.

There's bad employees of every organization...civil service is no different, unfortunately.

There are plenty of people that drink underage in there, and I turned 21 just a few weeks back and have never been carded there. I'm not a vengeful person like that though. They will get is what coming to them by other means, but no need for me to be involved in it. I'm going to take the high road.

1. I need to here more of the story, no offense, but I don't takte the word of someone who has been drinking/possibly drunk at the time automatically.

2. Get yourself a good lawyer.

3. That isn't going to help your BI very much.

that doesn't make sense, you can cuss all you want in front of cops but you have to offend an innocent bystandard in order for them to arrest you... but i guess its alabama :confused:

You're a liar. BTW, cops can lie just as much as you as long as it isn't lying to distort the facts of the case. They can tell you they were knocked for 6 hours if they wanted to and they did nothing wrong. He probably entered your place to search for any weapons in your immediate reach, and that is why he pulled you out too. Supreme Court has said both are fine to do. They can secure you out of your home for the investigation and can enter the immediate area where you were to look for weapons. So that leaves you with "illegally threatening" to arrest you for refusing to show your drivers license. They can threaten to arrest you for anything, but that doesn't mean it is illegal. Cops get to play tricks too as long as they don't violate any ethical or legal concern. Care to show me the law that says threatening to arrest you is illegal?

I guess you might not be such a big fan of cops being scum any more?

I was thinking #3 immediately when I saw the title & Mill's name. This could seriously hurt your chances of getting hired at a department, especially if they're hiring a few out of a large pool. Perhaps you should limit the drinking if you plan on being an LEO. I'm not saying officers don't drink, but it's different when you're first starting out.

This is why I tell people to never call the cops unless there is a dead body present. They are not the defenders of justice.

I must agree with Fausto... take stapler and do what you gotta do. ;)

1. That's fine and reasonable. I'd probably feel the same way if the roles were reversed. What more of the story do you want me to elaborate on?

2. Waiting on a callback for a referral. Lunchtime down here.

3. Least of my worries...

Yeah, if the cops refused to file a report against the bar, you need to go to the next level. Internal affairs whoever. A lawyer will know who to contact. I'm sure they just a couple of good ol' boys looking out for each other, but that crap doesn't fly anymore. After hearing your story I'm very pissed off about this. I hope you can get some kind of justice out of this. Are there any burns on your arm? You have the pieces of your cell phone? You're gonna need some kind of proof but what it's going to come down to is your word against their's.
