Ok, I will preface this with a hello, it's been a while since I been on here, and last I talked to you all I was going through the employment process with the Sheriff's dept. While all that's done with, and I'm now one of (INsert my county here) finest. I am happy and finding out all the pro's and con's of this job. I won't go into all of them, not enough time but I will give you a for instance.
Tonight, my cousin came over to pick up some clothes for himself. He has quite the stereo system in his work truck. He is a repo man. Anyway he comes over and has his stereo a little too loud but I didn't think anything of it due to the fact that he was just picking up clothes and then leaving. One of my ignorant neighbors who I have never even talked to comes up a mintue after he had walked through my door and asks him to turn it down. He says ok I will in a sec. She says "In a Sec?" "No, you need to turn it down now!" And he says ok in a minute , so she walks away. Anyway a minute later when he walks out the door towards his truck two of her "Hoodlum" kids starts yelling at him telling that he needs to leave and to do it right now! He says ok I'm going, all the while trying to keep the peace around my neighborhood. Anyway things escalated and the "thugs" threw off their coats and were bouncing around like a bunch of idiots. And so my cousin of course takes his jacket off when their mother yells that their minors. He then quickly puts it back on.
So their mother of course calls our lovely local police dept., as do I. I also feel compelled to give them all of my information and some information as to why I'm calling them. I called their non-emergency number. Anyway about 5 units show including the patrol seargent. I ID'd myself and talked with the seargent about things that happened. To which he was not happy to be there for. Which I could understand to a certain extent, but he didn't have to show up. Anyway the other party was claiming that my cousin pulled a gun on them, which he didn't. So they following SOP patted him down and searched his repo truck. No big deal they found nothing cause there was nothing.
So now my wife is worried about our families safety. I am not. But that's pretty self-explanitory. I am however going to raise hell in the morning with our apartment management. My next door neighbors do not shut-up thru-out the whole day until 11pm when city ordnance takes effect. They slam doors and scream and holler, and bang on our ajoining walls, they are very annoying. But then again most people in my neighborhood are.
So if you were placed in that situation what would you do? I am still on probation, so I don't want to draw any unnecessary negative attention to the department. But on the other hand I am a citizen of this city just like everyone else that lives here, so I should have a right to complain. Maybe not. I don't know.
I'll keep this gun oriented to make the Mod's happy. The seargent was carrying a Springfield XD. Don't know what caliber but knowing cops it must have to be in .40 S&W.
