Is there a way you can give a negative star? At first I was thinking are the police in this area really that bored???? Then after reading all these similar posts of how the police is bothering more people just as much as they are helping is really sad. I'm another unnecessary victim and I guess in my case I either looked suspicious (have had the cops called on me multiple time for this - no citations or punishment from them) or driving on a goomy sat afternoon while BLACK! It's ironic when you start recording the people who is supposed to protect the community that is more like harrassing the community because they have the power, their behavior changes. In my case as soon as i put my phone up to the rear window to start recording 2 officers turn off into a parking lot just to loop around then get back on the road and continue to follow me. It's really SAD. I was literally followed almost 5 miles to my friends driveway in a residential neighborhood and when I parked and got out of the car they just rode past and stared. What made it worse was the fact that toddlers were playing in the yard next door with their parents and they are observing me like I'm the bad person. I felt like the neighbors created a negative stereotype against me and my friends just for being followed. It may be a part of your job (I have family in law enforcement) but if you are THAT BORED help other jurisdictions with some of these unsolved theft and murders, or go volunteer, but leave the good people ALONE.
