Reply #56: Pulled over in Somerville, MA 10 years ago for no apparent reason

[BREMPRO]

asked officer politely (with a hint of confusion) why i was pulled over, he reacted with indignant rage that i would question his authority or judgment, YELLED at me that i had not yielded to traffic in a rotary (totally ridiculous and fabricated charge)and not to question him. His roid rage was so intimidating, i felt in fear for my safety from this rogue officer. I didn't say another word and he wrote the ticket. Not that it was relevant in this case but he was white, I am white. I had another cop in Allston, also must have been on roids, yell at me for not turning left on a green light- i was so confused and intimated by his anger that i just apologized. I realize later that there was a red left turn arrow that i was waiting to turn green when he yelled at me. He was actually raging at me for following the traffic signal legally. He then proceeded to go around me and turn in front of traffic going through a red light and endangering several drivers. f'd up. Between the power trip and the steroids- some of these guys need better screening, training and supervision.
