Here's an intersting one...

My nephew, who is blind and brain damaged, had a little run-in with a local police officer...apparently the officer did not identify himself as such and made a comment to my nephew about him 'faking' his blindness...which, of course, provoked my nephew into trying to 'prove' his blindness...and an ensuing "Assault Police" charge...this happened in a public washroom inside of the street center in downtown Barrie.

Of course he came home livid and pretty much had the same effect on me when I finally got the story out of him. I went up to the local police department to find out more details (I was pissed and about to offer the officer my services in attitude correction) and ended up speaking with the Staff Sargent about getting the officer suspended...to no avail.

It turns out the office lied about my nephew's not being welcomed in the street center on his arrest report. My nephew spends a good deal of his time there giving talks about wearing a helmet to prevent brain damage from bike injuries like he suffered. I contacted the staff at the street center to see what the situation was and if there were any witnesses and they advised me that my nephew is very welcome and they love him to bits (that's what the girl said).

Sooooo...this morning I go out to get the trash bins from the side of the road and when I turn around I see lunch meat on my hood...balongna to be exact...

Two slices...placed on the hood...

Since I don't usually order this type of lunch meat to be delivered and the neighborhood kids usually just throw trash on the lawn and driveway I suspect this was some kind of 'warning' from the officer...

My sister is now considering a law suit against the officer for abuse of authority and also seeing about suing for damages..

I haven't reported it yet, but I did get a shot of the meat...well, one of the two slices...and I have the meat in the fridge for a snack later...if I don't report it...

you might be careful removing the meat from the hood. In the summer time here in AZ you can pull the paint off with the meat. always a good revenge info.

Yeah, well, it's pretty cold here so it came off without any paint removed (you can't see it but my hood is bent from an accident so it needs to be replaced some day)...

Write and send a polite, factual letter.
Send it to the newspaper and many local officials.

They can blow off a conversation.
After that letter, the fur will fly.

I was going to do that...the local papers don't carry too much negative information on the police department so I'm not sure how far that will go...but thanks for reminding me...

My experience in the past with newspapers can, however, be summed up in a reply I received from the former Editor in Cheif of the Toronto Sun: "We buy ink by the barrel, and we always have the last word"...

That, in a nutshell, explains everything...

Ya, but you're talking about someone who is blind and brain damaged.

What about groups that watch out for people with disabilities?

TV loves this kind of story. If you let it die, it will just keep going, and happen to someone else, or maybe your nephew again.. If the cops are out of line, it needs to be addressed.:)shady

Good point. My nephew just happens to have been talking to a person from the Mental Health Association of Canada that was doing work at the street center. They they have offered to go to bat for him. They really do like him there!

punch him in the dick
:icon_rofl: I have considered that option...I was going to confront him directly and offer to go a round with him at the police gym...if he wins, I will drop all attempts myself...if I win...he resigns from the force and leaves my nephew and me alone...I have a good feeling that he would end up resigning...even though I haven't actually trained in a long time...this viagara really works...lol!

So right Shady...and I am still trying to compose a suitable letter to all parties, including my local MP...

I've heard of waking up with a horse's head in your bed. Lunchmeat on the hood though--that doesn't really send a signal for me. I need a horse head or I just dont get it.

There is so much information that seems to be missing here. I would give it a couple weeks and see if it happens again.

Thanks, I needed a laugh...

I've decided to pull the Zuke into the garage and leave the Ranger out in the cold for now...I don't like the idea that they know where I live...but I did manage to find out the PC's address online...so I might return the favour and leave something on his hood...maybe a dead squirrel...that would send a very clear message to him...

I would like to just have a good bowel movement on his front steps though...but it's too cold and windy to do that...so I can dig up the dead squirrel that I burried in the fall and toss that out for him to chew on...

Maybe someone just thinks he's full of baloney.

If you complain to the police they'll probably just put out an APD on Oscar Meyer.

Did you ask any of the neighbors if they saw a suspicious hotdog driving around the neighborhood?









Suspects Sought!




J/K, I couldn't resist. I tried, really I did!

If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.
there are ways to handle a cop like that ....... first you need a couple hookers, a digital camera, a sheep and some photoshop skills..........
