[QUOTE=Nic2004]  
I have along beard, long hair and ride a Harley and have done so for decades. I have been pulled over more than a couple of times for bogus reasons.  
That said:  
**Eleusis** I understand the nature of your complaint at it’s core but the method of discussing it is fucked up. This particular officer has done nothing that I can tell and your assumption of his guilt is the worse kind of bigotry. Far worse than the profiling you referred to earlier.  
Maybe something like “ **Loach** , I’m sorry. I think many cops abuse their power and single out certain types of people. I think the one in the story may be one of those. However, I don’t know you and my coming unglued here may have been a bit hasty and uncalled for.”  
Feel free to use all or part of this as you see fit.

**Loach** , I’m sorry. I think many cops abuse their power and single out certain types of people. I think the one in the story may be one of those. However, I don’t know you and my coming unglued here may have been a bit hasty and uncalled for.

Also, I was very, very, drunk when I posted in this thread, as a few people figured out intuitively, from context.

To those who think I’ve been in trouble with the law, and there must lay the source of my frustration: Not since a DUI in '98.

To those who think I’m just an imbecile with a chip on his shoulder, who has never offered anything constructive to the board: C’est la vie.

To everyone else, especially **Loach** : Heartfealt apologies. I apparently misread the motive somewhere along the line and flew off the handle.

Since I’ve never had a problem with you in the past I’ll take you at your word and accept your apology. I appreciate the effort since this thread had died you could have just as easily never mentioned it again.

Hatchet buried, apology made and accepted, let’s let this thread mercifully fall off into memory.
