Yes, I've been busted. My friend and I were driving 35 down a street at 11 p.m and he got a flat tire. He pulled over to the curb, but it raises slowly into a sidewalk and it was dark.

Well, the cops behind us thought it was rather funny that a guy would try to park his flat-tire car up on the sidewalk. So the lights go on while we step out to change the tire, yada yada yada I got searched on the suspicion that we were driving intoxicated (we were very much sober), cop found a dub on me, and I got charged with possesion of illegal narcotics.

Yes, I know the laws. It was bullshit, the cop had no right to search me. Took it to court, lost, and got slapped with a $600 fine, one week comunity service, and 2 years un-monitored probation.

Nevertheless, I still respect the fuzz. There's dicks out there, but I'm not gonna let the one that got me screw it up for the good ones out there who actually do believe in protecting people from real problems. And I pay the last part of my fine off next month. =)

What can I say, I'm an optimist.
