Do cops bug you when shredding?

Post by smokefree »

I was just at the church shredding with a friend and a cop rolled by. well he left but twenty minutes another cop rolled up and was like "HEY... U ON ZA METH? YOU ON PROBATION? YOU SURE YOURE NOT ON METH *SERIOUS DISBELIEVING LOOK* then he took my friends pulse and all this other shit.... then he complained his heart rate was way high, and we told him we were footbagging, he was like... its high, and started saying too high for the activity. Then my friend pointed to the sweat on his head and the cop was like.... oh.... ok.... c ya later and then almost stole our IDs we had to run up and say HEY our ids.

That's wack, I've never had a cop do something like that to me while shreading. That is just insulting

Your next task: Go to the bathroom.
Wash your face.
Put your shoulders hunched upwards.
Look really, really slowly upwards towards the mirror like in the movies
And slap yourself in the face.
With your game face on.
And go shred with jim.
It'll work, trust me.

I've pretty much know now where cops go and where they will hassle me. They always tell me to just play somewhere else. So I stray clear of any of those spots and just go to public parks and such.

I think we'd all get arrested.... "ONE MORE TIME... *drop* FUCK. ONE MORE TIME" I think they should go after the bag scrapers who scuff your new bag into the concrete trying to flick it up as if it was some awesome trick.

Video? The cop just thought we were kicking a ball, we didn't really want to elaborate on it, we just wanted to get the hell out of there. It was weird I wasn't nervous, except until the end when he started really grilling us, it starts casual then he treats you like a suspect.

how could it be a big deal if a cop asks you to move to a different spot?
its hacky sack, all you need is level ground. Its not like there are some spots that are way better than others that cops keep kicking you out of.
If you get kicked out of a spot just find a new one.

Well, its the only well-lit outdoor area, its got tons of lights and surfaces, smooth concrete, sidewalk, grass. In the day time who give a shit, i can see anywhere. I dont care that the cop asked me to move either, i would of done that in the first place, its the fact that he held us for so long and got in our faces without any reason for suspicion other than it was like 10:30 pm.
PS: fuck you footbag is to special :evil: jk

One time I was playing in the parking lot of my apartment complex. Nothing extraordinary. I used to play routinely there. But then a cop car pulls up....I hoped it wasn't for me but I knew it was.

I'm worried as hell. Another car pulls up! One cop gets out and approaches me. I'm freaking out and baked. He tells me there is a SEXUAL ASSAULTER in the area and somebody called them about a "hacky sacker" that looks like the rapist. I had seen the posters around town. Hell, they even sent out a university email with a drawing of the dude. It kinda looks like me but not really. For one he has brown eyes, I have BLUE. Why would a known sexual assaulter be hackin' it in broad daylight?!!? And surely a rapist can't do pdx torque! Yeah, that should have proven my innocence right there!

So I laughed. The cop asks for my ID, I tell him I have none! I'm shredding, why would I have one?! Long story short, I didn't get in trouble.

Fuck the police!
