I Fought the Law

Jesus broke the law. So did George Washington. You did, too, and we want to hear about it.

Friends with the right people

Up +18 Down

Some friends used to hang out near our old high school and drink while listening to music. One day a friend and myself decided to join them. Minutes after we arrived the police showed up, because the neighbours complained about the loud music (it was past 10 pm). Luckily someone had stopped the music and hidden the speakers in his bag. The cops came over and the female officer demanded to see our IDs and informed us that we were all being charged with disturbing the peace. Naturally we argued with her, but she told us that there was nothing she could do because the neighbours wanted to press charges (it wasn't the first time we had listened to loud music there). Suddenly a friend of mine told the other officer that he was training to be a cop himself. After exchanging glances with her partner the female cop said: "I don't see anything wrong here with these kids. Maybe we should have a talk with the neighbours." So the cops got them out of bed and talked with them for about 20 minutes. When they came back the neighbours had agreed to drop the charges and the cops drove away after wishing my cop-to-be-friend good luck.
