come on people, i know youre all out there
the time has come to expose those bad experiences youve had with the police
why am i bringing this up you may ask?
well...
last night my sister came home crying because she was driving through the city in wellington street and the police pulled her over as she was going 66km/hr and "aparently" the city is only a 50km/hr zone...i never knew that, dont know if anyone else does, but anyway...
she also unfortunately had her dash light off as it wasnt working, so they tried to patronise her and abuse her, saying that she looks a bit too petite to be driving her car, and that she shouldnt even be driving at all late at night, and that she was stupid for doing so, etc etc...
basically they tore her down verbally, basically in an attempt to get her to either admit their assumption of guilt & bad intentions while getting the upper hand on things
so they gave her a fine, of $150 and 2 points...
there was 2 of them by the way...
i told her, to complain to the police station when she goes to pay the fine, in as much detail as possible
she complained saying they wont believe her, its only her word against theirs, nothing will be done
and regardless if so or not, the whole point of me writing this, is to try & get people who may be scared of standing up to the police, or anyone else for that matter, that the more we are scared of speaking out, the more power these assholes gain & the more miserable they make our lives
im not saying all police and people in positions of authority are bad, but alot of people who gain such powers & rights, in alot of cases abuse it, simply because why...they have the means & ways to do so, its like a game to them, show off to their buddies, make more arrests, more fines, get brownie points
you know what i compare them to?
sales people, trying to get the most sales, the biggest commissions, telling the customer utter nonsense workdding words in such a way as to make anything sound attractive to the unitiated into that particular area of goods/services
so my message to people is just, dont stand back & let your world be taken advantage of, speak up, make yourself heard, report wrong doings & if you feel that you are being treated unfairly, say so
we live in a time now where if we lose a job, or any other such events happen as a result of standing up for ourselves & our rights, that we wont be without opportunity for long
there are plenty of people and organisations around who look out for the little people, who nuture their customers/employees, who realise that people have lives, people have worries, people dont always do the right thing, not on purpose, but because we are always thinking about a million things
expose the bad, embrace the good, the only way for things to get better is for people to know where not to go, what not to do, and who not to speak to
