I am a hypocrite. I post a lot on cops and how “not to talk to them” or assume they have power over you, etc. But when I got a ticket today, I reverted back to old school mode of being a suck up. I talked to him, I apologized for speeding, did a lil half cry thing that just comes naturally when I get caught at anything, and then I kissed his ass basically. I felt the integrity within myself slowly slipping away as I conceded my principles to get out of something with least effort. I was driving with no license though or registration (like always) and I did have a few dozen warrants out in that city, but still I caved and played nice to get out of jail and avoid the ticket for going 50 in a 35. I don’t know. I just feel like I need to admit that to gain my integrity back. Thanks diary. Cops suck, but the ones I meet seem really nice. I am conflicted. It’s just like having a best friend who is a statist. It’s possible maybe? But not really cause you don’t agree on first principles and that sorta means everything.
