Cops, Cameras & Accountability in Arlington, VA

Are those with badges entitled to more rights? Pete Eyre, Bureaucrash’s Crasher-in-Chief, doesn’t think so.

That’s why, on 2009.01.23 when he saw an Arlington County Police Department vehicle parked in a no parking zone he called it in. He didn’t expect that to lead to him being followed on foot by an officer, but that’s exactly what happened.

This is the edited version of his encounter. For the raw footage, go to: YouTube.com/Bureaucrash

    I know I wouldn’t try ting on his porch. I think you would understand if you met him. It would not come to a pleasant resolution.

    Pete - I am also fascinated. As a matter of fact, I’m curious how you spent the rest of your day… Was a beach towel involved?

    OK, if you’re going to act like a cop, police the streets and strictly adhere to law, then it’s quite clear who will be bringing on the martial law. Groups, millitias who believe it is in the interests of the people to take over the streets, to crack down and present opposition.

    It’s unbelievable how narrow minded this is. Look outside of the situation, see life from other perspectives than your own, look around and the perspectives of the world, not just the conspiracy cult.

    the LAW is the LAW remember LAW and ORDER citizen? lol

    the law is the law and the officer was in violation of the law and allowed to get away with breaking the law. The officer then engaged in a stalking campaign against citizen. File charges for stalking, conduct unbecoming an officer, and harassment. Then record all future interactions with the officer.

    Thanks for the love …
    Thanks for the love TinCup. I don’t understand why you have a problem with a citizen expecting those enforcing the law to abide by that same law. Or why you’d like to grant cops the authority to ticket people for being “a lil’ .” Who then would decide who fits that metric? Law is supposed to be objective, and applicable to all.

    And if you’re fine allowing cops to break this law, at what point do you believe they should start abiding by the law?

  10. bureaucrash Says:

    Thanks for the …
    Thanks for the question. I had no doubt the officer was trying to determine where I lived. And the fact that he first followed me north (into the apt complex), then south (back to where he car had been parked), then east (past the 711) was proof enough for me.

    OMG… find better …
    OMG… find better things to do than be a metermaid for cops! that’s so lame, you’re just inciting argument where it wasn’t really a significant issue.

    the cop chooses to lie and its obvious. he keeps saying “it’s a beautiful day” but then sidelines and basically admits to following him. This video just shows how police continuously lie

    I have always …
    I have always thought that when our society crumbles it will be at the hand of mindless police officers. A police officer has never helped me with anything in my whole life. In fact I once had my car stolen and the only thing he asked me on the police report was what color my car was. They don’t care if you get your car stolen but they do care if your not wearing your seatbelt.

    Do you think he was …
    Do you think he was trying to find out where you live? That’s very creepy if true. I think you could have let him keep following you and keep digging a deeper hole for himself while you document the whole thing. That would really expose him for the he is, and you could try to get a restraining order. Your thoughts? (And I’m completely aware you could be setting yourself up for crimes committed against you by him & his gang & you’d have no recourse to defense).

    HEY DUMB !!!!!!!!!! How many REAL ing crimes do you think took place while you tied up that officer for a piece of complaint from a whiney liberal piece of moron. You honestly should have been ticket for being a lil’ . I would love to meet you in person and on your porch… GET A JOB LOSER.

    i bumped into a undercover pig (who drank a whisky and a beer) at the bar fri and he showed me his badge…i immediately (fairly calmly) tore him a new hole for trying to intimidate me, i told him he didn’t have to be a dick head and the badge doesn’t give him a special right of way to bump into people….than i called 1800GRABDUI on him…..ahahahah it felt great
