Ah good old St.pete police as one who has grown up living on the south site of St.Pete i will say these guys are major fuck up. I actually seen the shooting in 1996 that caused the riots in St.pete. This cop got away with murder.
These guys do not discriminate white or black. I have been pulled out of my vehicle numerous times over the years just for driving home. White guy in a black neighborhood equals a drug buyer. These guys ripped my trucks apart numerous times looking for drugs and weapons. Last time they pulled me over and wanted to search my vehicle told them no. Make a long story short i ended up going to jail on a obstruction charge.
I could go on about how frigging green team which is st.pete swat raided my house which was the wrong house or i could get into how i was was at work and got fucking pounced on by 10 cops. There was a car jacking and guy killed woman. I fit the description. Lucky for me they caught him in her car a few days later.
I could also go on and tell the story had i did there fucking job and solved 3 bank robbery's. Yet they made me wear a wire to get the guy on tape or the would have my probation violated.
I worked 3 jobs for 2 1/2 years and got the hell out of there in 1999 and moved to the suburbs of pasco county. Any time i have any contact with officers now it yes sir no sir.
With all the issues i have with police over the years i still have no issues with them. There are good and bad just like everything else and you need them.
