Even so, the argument is not won on the side of the road. Just comply and take the ticket. Do your arguing in front of a judge and win there, where it matters.
Typically, I agree with compliance during a traffic stop. In this case I do NOT. The officer never stated the reason for the stop. Not once. Other than walking up and stating, I’m a narcotics officer and I’m inspecting your car. There was no infraction initiating the traffic stop. This indeed appears as profiling. These are bad cops.
Taking nothing from the brilliance of this performance, I have to say, I left the theater asking, "what the hell was that about? " The movie seemed pointless to me.
While filming the dinner party scene in MULHOLLAND DRIVE (2001), Naomi Watts finished the take to applause from the crew and David Lynch.
One of those moments when everyone on set knew they had witnessed something special.
@Joyce_Burt2026@BrandonStraka A gentle reminder that the diversity of our founding generation referred to the diversity of their prior station ... this diversity gave way to unity, created by assimilation.
Whoever held this camera should be in jail. Whoever is raising this little mob should be brought under the supervison of the court. My heart breaks for the little girl being beaten.
@johnsnow3t4 This generation is so stupid literally, & figuratively.... White privilege on display. No talent or intelligence so you do dumb sshhh & call it "content" unbelievable
@RobertKennedyJr@CitizenFreePres Sorry to intrude, but as a lifelong amateur herpatologist, I must point out that this is a diamond back rattlesnake you are holding, not timber rattler.
MAHA!!
We need to talk about the growing epidemic of main character syndrome, weaponized victimhood, and pure entitlement.
Just because you are going through a hard time does NOT give you a free pass to treat the rest of the world like your personal emotional dumping ground.
It feels like everywhere you look, someone is using their personal struggles as a shield to justify being completely reckless, disrespectful, or breaking rules that apply to everyone else.
"I’m having a bad day" is not a valid license to put others in harm's way.
Let's be real: life is hard. Everyone you pass on the street is fighting a battle you know nothing about.
But there is a massive difference between needing grace and demanding immunity from being a decent human being. Your trauma is an explanation, not an excuse.
The math is simple:
Hard times require resilience and community.
Weaponized victimhood requires everyone else to bend to your chaos.
When you play the victim to justify harming or disrupting others, you aren't healing—you're just transferring your pain to innocent people.
Imagine if all 8 billion of us decided to act out purely on our raw emotions every single day. If we all abandoned rules, respect, and responsibility the moment we felt overwhelmed, society would collapse into absolute chaos.
We would live in an incredibly unsafe, unpredictable world.
Emotional maturity is realizing that the world doesn't stop spinning just because you're having a rough chapter.
Be responsible. Be respectful. Carry out your day with some accountability. You can be hurting and still be a good person. It’s called being an adult. Every single one of us is keeping it together for the sake of the people around us. Do the same.
The Honorable Justice is somehow conflating (if not confusing) allegiance with jurisdiction. These are two very different things. Does she not have a qualified clerk that can nudge her away from such nonsense?
But consider this: 1. Driving on public roadways is a privilege, not a right; 2. DLs are issued by states, which are sovereign in this issuance; 3. Privileges may be contingent upon consent to submit to sobriety tests; 4. If such are refused, privilege evaporates.
Road pirate tough guys didn’t realize they’d stopped a DUI‑stop veteran who knows DUI checkpoints better than the officers running them
