---I don't commit crimes. So I don't live in fear.
You never commit crimes?
============================
Let me preface my rant by saying I hated the social culture of California, people are shallow, greedy, nervous, and they don't return calls. The chicks are inflated beyond belief.
I am also pro-legalization, if for nothing else what it's doing to Mexico, changing into a failed state with narco traffickers killing everyone in sight to get more money.
But I also lived in a major city where you could walk in the parks at night because habitual bullies and criminals-- assholes, in police parlance-- were in jail where they fucking belonged.
It costs a TON of money, but there is a big benefit to having stupid, violent people locked up.
---------You never commit crimes?
-- Yes, you're right technically, I do-- but not the kind that gets me
arrested.
I used to work in the criminal justice system, not a cop, as a health care worker and there were a lot of crooks that had this "shit happens" attitude toward their [seemingly endless] crimes and getting arrested.
Euphemisms like "catching a charge" mean "getting caught doing a serious felony."
Serious felonies are typically acts that don't happen by oversight-- forcible rape with a chick's face smashed in, or having a dead prostitute in the trunk of her own car you're now driving around after murdering her (I met that asshole), or a kilo of coke in your trunk, ( maybe it SHOULD be legal but it isn't and you knew that--) or, you on parole later after one of the above cruising with a known felon who has a "gat" on him.
All shit people KNOW they're NOT SUPPOSED TO DO.
However, the habitual criminal reframes all this as something that "just happens." He had only minimal responsibility, and his problems are a result of a "police state"
I've personally SEEN and STUDIED dozens of rap sheets of people in maximum security prisons, and the idea that they are victims of a police state is 99.9% or more total horseshit.
The real victim of a police state is a guy with almost no record who gets misidentified in a robbery ( see the innocence project) and this DOES happen, but most of the guys who were complaining about their charges had SUCH A LONG CRIMINAL HISTORY THEY DESERVED TO BE IN FOR LIFE ANYWAY, EVEN IF THEY WERE INNOCENT OF THE CURRENT CRIME FOR WHICH THEY WERE IN.
The common complaint of almost every habitual criminal I met was that they didn't deserve the punishment they got, that it was just circumstances. Then I looked at their rap sheets. Holy shit.
The length started at about 6-7 pages. This is when they were 17 years old. 20-25 arrests-- and NOT victimless drug crimes--assaults, robberies, escape ( a big sign of someone headed for lifetime criminality) .
I was particularly interested in murderers-- what warning signs were there that this sucker could have been locked up before he really wreaked havoc and killed completely innocent bystanders in a convenience store?
Criminology is too complex to go into here, but a 17 year old who does an assault, then carries a gun while on probation from the assault, then committing a robbery while on probation after the 9 months he did for the gun....
then an assault while out on bail awaiting trial for THAT robbery.
HE NEEDS TO BE LOCKED UP FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY. FOR A LONG TIME.
It's too late for this guy, at 21. He's been bullying others since he was 5 or 6. Everything is someone else's fault.
It took me a long, long time to realize, in his mind, he really is the victim. This is the bizarre aspect of anti-social personality.

You don't speed?
--- Not over 90, which is the speed that gets you arrested rather than ticketed.
Jaywalk?
-- not an arrest crime as long as you don't smart mouth the cop.
Always wear your seatbelt?
-- not an arrest crime as long as you don't smart mouth the cop.
Never talk on the phone while driving?
-- not an arrest crime as long as you don't smart mouth the cop.
Never ever take a piss in public?
-- Hardly ever, would apologize profusely if caught, would not also be publicly drunk, when he ran me he'd find no record, thus PROB not an arrest crime as long as you don't smart mouth the cop.
Never ever in a car with someone with a gun? Drugs? Open container?
--- Fuck no, I'm a licensed health care professional. I don't hang out with fools. I assume you mean illegal gun. Wow, an authentic "gangster" lifestyle. How exciting!!
But doesn't that mean you're ASKING to be ARRESTED? And that you shouldn't complain if you are?
Never hang out with someone smoking a joint?
-- not an arrest crime as long as you don't smart mouth the cop. For all practical purposes totally legal if in a private home without sought-after felons around.
Never in a house with drug paraphernalia?
-- Not that I know of. I don't hang with people who do hard drugs knowingly.
Never drink a beer on the street?
---Not in a place where cops were. In a rural area, where the cops don't care.
On the beach?
---Not in a place where cops were. In a rural area, where the cops don't care.
Glass container on the boardwalk?
---I hate LA.
Take a drag of a cigarette within 15 feet of a building?
--- Christ quit smoking, it's the worst thing for you. A cool "G" isn't too cool dragging one leg around after a stroke.
Clean after your dog every single time?
--- No dog, but if I did I wouldn't expect everyone else to tiptoe around his shit because I'm special.
Drop a piece of paper on the ground?
--- I almost never litter. You're reaching for straws here. If you litter two times in ten years, you're more likely to be hit by lightning than by arrest.
------If so, your good.
I am, because I don't do crazy, aggressively criminal stuff that attracts attention with guns and conspicuous driving. And then complain about the time and expense because "it's a police state. "
---If not, don't come to the California Police State.
I was already there for decades and have intimate knowledge of the criminal justice system, not as a habitual criminal or cop but as a licensed health professional who actually took care of criminals. I helped more freaking criminals than just about any criminal did.
-----We are all criminals here.
Theoretically, yes, but well over 90 percent of the general population go DECADES without getting arrested.
If you want to be a "bad" "G"; WTF do you expect to happen to you?
Do you think the general public wants guns, crack, and violence around them?
