Because all Cops must be Leo's to join the force. they do not accept Virgo's, Capricorn's and the like because they have the wrong temperament for the job

BTW you are ****ing kidding right ?

My riding partner just so happens to also be the Chief of Police of the town I live in,he is one of the Finest Men I have ever known......... Plus he is a great get out of jail free card.

I am on the right coast and wonder why you people on the left coast call cops Leo
Couldn't care less WHAT "coast" you're on - you can't justify the O2 you consume if you can't figure that one out on your own.

For all of you that have been getting the get out of jail free cards I have taken many for the team. Most I WAS innocent but after deciding to fight and let justice prevail..................I lost big time and cost me a fortune in travel and lost pay and fines. When I asked the judge just what the law was she told me to go upstairs to the leagal library and look it up myself. What a great country we live in. Wanna know what I call em?

I don't know what you call them but what ever it is I think you should stop it because apparently it attracts them to you.

Actually since I started to see the light 3 1/2 years ago I have not had any problems and noticed lately they are getting theirs. Aparently the I'm above the law syndrome has bitten the butt. Just sayin................

And to think even when onethreatened to kill me in front of 5 or so of his fellow officers I held no ill will knowing they were all JUST DRUNK AND DRIVING.They all just walked away.
