basically I hurt his wittle feefees
or something
maybe he noticed my thick and luxurious mane of hair, and got sad because he's a balding fuck
they applied the "insulting an officer" law
I've been called a piece of shit, bitch, asshole, bastard, motherfucker, I've even been called a nigga before, can't write a ticket for any of it
as they always do, since they learn from the brits
I had a dude from Romania do a ride along with me once, he said the most powerful weapon I had was the radar gun because over there they use it to extort a shitload of money
Really pisses me off, since my dad was a cop.
oh, that is absolutely true.
bribery for evading speeding tickets is rampant.
or at least used to, depends on the country.
another item of power abuse is the alcotester.
I don't know what they do to those things, but sometimes even if you're 100% sober, the meter shows otherwise.
We can't use the portable ones for any legal action, you can buy them at Walmart
That's interesting.
They use portable ones all the time
The big machine at the police station, that one sends you to jail, but I don't know of any way to force a false reading
not wallmart like, they have the "state approved" ones.
Probably it's calibrated wrong on purpose
or they don't follow the procedure right
one or the other basically.
Yeah they should be in a sealed package
other news, Vienna's government refused to build a monument to Jan Sobieski III, the man who saved their shithole of a city
Welp, every country got some problems, Poland isn't perfect, but still a good country.
That dude was a badass hero
With an awesome stache
Saved not only Vienna but really the world if you think about it. If Vienna fell to the Ottoman Turk savages, the rest of the west would have also.
@Niveron where u from?
Lithuania
LITland
🔥
So many good basketballs from lit
Arvydas sabonis #1
Also. Currently in greece. Opa
@Rothguard Sabonis is a legend, no contest there. As were the BC Žalgiris of his youth, back at the 80s and 90s.
Basketball is pretty much a second religion here.
also who can forget this epic game in 2004 Olympics.

@Niveron why basketball and not soccer?
Interesting, basketball is the same in China, because they don't have enough space for soccer fields etc.
1st - little to no actual stadiums. The "national" one in Vilnius has been under construction since Comrade Eyebrows and Medals (Brezhnev) was the Gensec of the USSR. The only useable stadium for you know, international games and such, is in Kaunas, but it too needs serious renovation, but that has stuck in courts, because reasons.
2nd - I think the whole craze goes back to the interbellum period, when Lithuania won the EuroBasket championship in '37 and '39. Also people like Pranas Lubinas, an Lithuanian-American helped popularize the sport.
