POLICE OFFICERS SOMETIMES FOCUS ON SMALL THINGS

Editor: A few of my favorite colors are blue and red, but not when I
have my stereo blasting and I see those colors flashing behind me. I
think police officers are being too picky in St. Johns County over
stupid things, like music being too loud, going 6 or 7 miles over, or
wearing a seatbelt. They only thing they do to us when they pull us
over is either make us mad or make us late. All that does is drive us
to do even more dumb things like really speed or go crazy.

Don't get me wrong about deputies or troopers, about 80 percent of the
state troopers in St. Johns County are my good friends and I know a
lot of the sheriff deputies and some undercover police officers. I'm
not criticizing anyone but it's just the fact that they pull us over
for some unreasonable things like I said before and they really need
to focus on other important things like drugs and drunk drivers in
this county.

But I do applaud the officers for doing a good job in keeping this
county in order but all I'm saying is stop going for the little fish
and stick with the big fish like drugs or alcohol and real speed
offenders, and stop pulling people over for dumb things.
