Thanks TPD!!! 2 Thumbs up!

I know it's long but i thought it was worth sharing, the worst part? Think of this when you get to the end...Im going to college to BE ONE OF THESE GUYS.

So.....typical Thurs Night???? Leave school, go by Wal-Mart on Admiral and hit 244 at about 845, at Yale (im speeding) a black Crown Vic gets next to me in the left lane, and I slow down just enough to make out the "Arkansas" tag. Realizing he cant do anything to me I continue on at about 75 and he brakes and pulls behind me, and lites me up (red/blue) so i stay where i am, call *55 (OHP) and start telling them whats going on. After about 45 seconds he gets about 6 feet off my ass so i whip over, slow down andcrank the wheel to get behind him and he turns his lights off and takes off. I tell OHP that I would feel guilty if later they did the "Fake cop rape a girl" trick and i want to stay on the line until they get there. I stay on him, we go left at the construction and west on 51 and he exits Houston by OSU Medical and the OHP advises that TPD is blocks away and stay with him if i can. So at Houston he heads south to 13th, misses the corner, goes over a curb, slams on the brakes and gets out holding a large handgun. I freak, yell GUN in the phone and drop it, slam reverse and do the Hollywood "reverse-to-forwards" turn and come within inches of catching TPD head-on. Super cop gets out yelling at me, im yelling GUN and pointing and finally he pulls his weapon on the guy and tells me to "RUN AND TAKE COVER" which I did, in his car. More cops show up, arrest the guy, take my statement, and what do I get for my good efforts of getting someone off the streets that could be a MAJOR danger to the public you ask????? 2 warnings, 1 for taillights being black, and one for my license plate being smoked. Thanks TPD. Did we lay off the smart ones?

Yeah, I almost had to change my shorts.

Well, today a Lt. from TPD called me to apologize for the warnings. Apperantly he didnt actualy feel bad about it (cause as he put it "Breaking the law is breaking the law" ) but he felt as though it made them look bad in the publics eyes. No shit, really?

Well i try! And really the ABSOLUTE WORST PART is im going to school for CRIMINAL JUSTICE to be one of these guys......maybe i should switch to engineering or drafting........ Im losing faith all together in TPD.

Nope, no news, no hero award, just doing what I thought was right. The whole thing lasted less than 90 minutes. Apperantly the guy has warrants out for immitating a police officer, and has been in jail before for sexual assult.
