Yelling "Goodbye Officers" is against the law?

"Driving" a bicycle? I thought those were "ridden".

You just can't give proper salutations to an officer or officers anymore. :quiet:

Whosoever it was that rode or had ridden the bicycle past the cops probably could have gotten away with it had they not "Outed" the undercover drug sting operation; that was not the smartest thing to do, it put the lives of the Undercover Cops in jeopardy while they were just trying to do their jobs.

They will throw the book at him for that.

16 arrested during reverse prostitution sting

UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS, OH (FOX19) -Police say 14 men and two women were arrested in connection with a reverse prostitution sting in August.
Cincinnati Police targeted the Clifton/University Heights neighborhood after received numerous complaints of prostitution related crimes in the area. In addition to the 16 arrests for soliciting and/or loitering to solicit offenses, 11 vehicles were impounded and 13 civil citations were given for using a motor vehicle in a prostitution related offense.
The sting was part of the national sweep Operation: Buyer Beware, which is a strategy to highlight sex buyers as perpetrators and bring an end to prostitution and sex trafficking. 20 law enforcement agencies in 11 different states participated in the operation. More than 250 ‘Johns' were arrested and 128 vehicles were impounded during the 10-day event.

Undercover cops are pretty easy to recognize in our neighborhood; let them do what they do, they raise city's income by "arresting" and "taxing" those workers who are spending and receiving money but not paying their "fair share".

ETA: These poor souls that were arrested in the "prostitution sting" also tried to "Poke the bear"!

Undercover cops are easy to spot so don't call attention to them because anyone can spot them? Okay. I think I understand.

I am going to be candid, this is the picture that I see, cops in a position to make some kinda undercover deal/bust and *someone* born in 1978 who, should by this time in life, know "when" and "what" to say or do in varying situations, like not interfering in official police business.

What exactly was "1978's" expectations when he made that move; did he take into consideration that more officers were involved via investigation and planning than just those couple that he saw? if his goal was to be perceived as a troublemaker in the eyes of the police, then he has succeeded.

What if the police decided that the bicyclist was acting in consort and conspiracy with the the suspects and his "Hello Officers" were a look out warning? He could be charged with conspiring to do the dirty deed.

Let me put it this way, "...You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you pull the mask off the "Ol Lone Ranger and you don't mess around with THEM".

BTW: Just think of how much time, mental energy and money that's it's going to take before it is over.

Reverse prostitution—women paying to have sex with me? How do I sign up for that?

They went after the "johns". There's your "reversal".

Another dumb issue... should be legal, regulated, and taxed.

Actually, they recently floated the idea that, "What happens between two consenting adults should be legal (as long as they [the city] can tax and zone it)".

Personally, I have had the police hassle me. One time I was going into the office on a Sunday to take care of business my boss wanted done and the police peeled into the lot and drew guns on me. But I try to be kind to others and generate salutations with respect anyway. I doubt I will anymore when the line has been drawn.

Rockford is a city that is quickly dying. Population is dropping in Illinois more than most states and Rockford is losing people faster than any other Illinois city. County and city governments are losing money very quickly from this loss and the law enforcement finds creative ways to generate revenue. In New York City, they are arresting guys in subways who they feel have their legs spread too far apart. In Rockford, they arrest people who offer cash gifts to officers posing as beggars on the street. Then they call it some type of a prostitution sting. It gathers an overall support from the community because it affects only the poor. This is the real story behind the motives of the officers. Keeping the wealthy from having to pay their fair share and garnering support from those who have not yet been afflicted.

It's all a load of bull. You can get all the illegal black market stuff you want. Instead of sending the cops out for such petty bullsheet send them out after rapists, murderers, grand larceny, etc. Why waste time and resources on petty drug and prostitution ??
