Read this article and try to find out why the residents hate this rookie cop, and why the author felt the need to put his personal info in the article. Like, why do I need to know that he played lacrosse?
He gave a drunk driver a ticket. Isn't that what cops are supposed to do? He hasn't learned, "Don't ticket rich white people!" yet.
@mekkaokereke I think this is why there’s so much resistance to speed/red light cameras by the ruling classes. Cameras don’t show class/race bias other than in choice of placement, and you can’t get away from a ticket by announcing that your are a politician, judge, police officer.
For everyone else: cameras don’t pick on people based on ethnicity or vehicle type, claim they smelt marijuana, and in the US: kill people.
