Kevin, by the way, on a same note, Kevin thinks that he's fed up that these people can get away with things that we can't, as regular citizens, get away with. Nice. And I think that he's out of line, but that's okay. I had my moment. You had yours.

00:01:32 - 00:01:38 | Speaker 4:

You'll say that because you're like an honorary sheriff guy. So these are like, these are your boys in blue or boys in brown.

00:01:38 - 00:01:44 | Speaker 5:

I'm a member of Sheriff Michael Bouchard's Oakland County Sheriff's whatever the heck we call him.

00:01:44 - 00:01:48 | Speaker 4:

You don't even know what you are. Yes. I got a badge.

00:01:49 - 00:01:51 | Speaker 5:

We don't need no stinking badges.

00:01:51 - 00:01:55 | Speaker 4:

Listen, I love all of the officers in this world that keep us safe.

00:01:55 - 00:01:58 | Speaker 5:

Especially the ones driving home today on your way home.

00:01:58 - 00:02:25 | Speaker 4:

Exactly. But it is not fair the type of things that police officers can do that us normal citizens can't, like when they're driving in particular. Police officers can turn where they're not supposed to. There's a clear red circle with the black arrow that says you can't go left. Police officers will do that every single time, and they don't get tickets. Police officers run through red lights, and they don't get tickets. They'll flip their little wee-wee-wees. But they're on official business.

00:02:25 - 00:02:29 | Speaker 2:

No, they are not, bro. They're going to save me? Yes. Don't turn where you can't turn, please.

00:02:29 - 00:02:43 | Speaker 4:

Agreed, but they are not going to save you. I literally, I was going home on Friday, and my man's is at the red light. I guess it's taking too long. He put on his, whoo, drives through the red light, and then turns it off once he gets on the other side. That's an abuse of power.

00:02:44 - 00:02:47 | Speaker 2:

I have seen that happen before. I agree with you.

00:02:47 - 00:02:52 | Speaker 5:

Did he put it on and do the whole? Yes, and then shut it off once he got across the other lights. I like when they chirp it.

00:02:53 - 00:02:58 | Speaker 3:

That's crap. Yeah, if you're a police officer, that has to be an abuse of power. How is that allowed?

00:02:58 - 00:03:10 | Speaker 5:

That is, you know what? They might as well, if they are doing it to abuse power, they might as well go in to, you know, wherever, CVS, and go, give me my candy for free.

00:03:10 - 00:03:27 | Speaker 4:

You know what I mean? Now, look, obviously, there are perks of the job, right? Like, here, we may get concert tickets every once in a while. You work at the movie theater, you get to see movies for free. But as a police officer, I hold you to a higher standard. You cannot just make left turns where you're not supposed to make them. I can't do that. Neither should you.

00:03:27 - 00:03:44 | Speaker 5:

It's not fair. Kevin wants to say it's not fair, and we want you to add to this. What do you think in life is not fair that people get away with? Oh, where, where, where? How about the boss? The boss. He gets away with doing a longer lunch than you get to have, right?

00:03:44 - 00:03:45 | Speaker 4:

No, Tony brings lunch.

00:03:46 - 00:03:48 | Speaker 5:

Well, that is true. But I'm saying hypothetically the other listeners.

00:03:49 - 00:03:51 | Speaker 2:

He would be the type that brings a sock.

00:03:51 - 00:04:03 | Speaker 5:

how about uh okay another guess uh the doctors uh doctors uh get access to medications that we've

00:04:03 - 00:04:08 | Speaker 4:

got to get prescriptions that is a terrible example hold on colleen is a cop that wants

00:04:08 - 00:04:13 | Speaker 5:

to talk to cab what's up officer or detective or whatever they call you what's going on colleen

00:04:14 - 00:04:32 | Speaker 2:

Good, I'm good. I'm Corporal Colleen. Corporal Colleen. I like that. Double C's. Yeah. Well, the reason why we go through red lights is because when we have an alarm run, we want to stay quiet on the radio, so they can't hear us when we're about ready to pull up.

00:04:32 - 00:04:35 | Speaker 5:

See, Kevin. What's an alarm run? Like if somebody's alarm's going off?

00:04:36 - 00:04:45 | Speaker 2:

Yes. When somebody's alarm is going off, or there's a breaking and entering in progress, we don't want people to hear our sirens and they don't we don't want them to see our lights see corporal

00:04:45 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 4:

colleen and respect to you thank you for all that you do i'm sure you've saved many lives my question for you is and be honest now this is on the badge be honest have you or any of your brothers and sisters in arms flick those

00:05:00 - 00:05:09 | Speaker 2:

and ran red lights just because no you lying i need your badge number our cameras turn on

00:05:09 - 00:05:14 | Speaker 3:

and we're recorded all the time whoa so when you flick the lights what what camera gets triggered

00:05:14 - 00:05:22 | Speaker 2:

because your body cam on all the time right the dash cam my body camera gets turned on and my patrol car camera gets turned on so we don't want to break policy

00:05:22 - 00:05:27 | Speaker 3:

interesting i still don't believe you you never turned when you weren't supposed to

00:05:27 - 00:05:33 | Speaker 2:

no no like I said we're all recorded so we can get written up for it

00:05:33 - 00:05:34 | Speaker 1:

she's a corporal

00:05:34 - 00:05:36 | Speaker 3:

we're the real cops that's how you're doing best

00:05:36 - 00:05:44 | Speaker 1:

thank you thank you oh here's another here's another thing Colleen love you Colleen Colleen listen to this one is it ISA

00:05:44 - 00:05:46 | Speaker 3:

00:05:46 - 00:05:49 | Speaker 1:

ISA says there's another thing that they get away with if they shouldn't what's that ISA

00:05:49 - 00:05:55 | Speaker 5:

how they be on their laptop and driving right but saying that we can't be and driving

00:05:55 - 00:05:57 | Speaker 3:

00:05:57 - 00:05:58 | Speaker 1:

Okay.

00:05:58 - 00:05:59 | Speaker 3:

That's a fact.

00:05:59 - 00:06:07 | Speaker 1:

Watch out. Watch out. By the way, Issa, where are you driving right now? What is the make, model, and color of your car? I want to see if any cops are listening to you.

00:06:08 - 00:06:09 | Speaker 5:

I'm not driving at the moment.

00:06:09 - 00:06:10 | Speaker 4:

I'm in the passenger seat.

00:06:11 - 00:06:16 | Speaker 1:

Oh. Let's call out the person you're driving with. Mark, what's going on? It's Mojo in the morning. Hi.

00:06:18 - 00:06:22 | Speaker 6:

Hey, I'm the real Mark Warner. Oh, what's up? No, you're not.

00:06:22 - 00:06:26 | Speaker 1:

Our Dr. Warner is the only Dr. Mark Warner. What's going on?

00:06:27 - 00:06:37 | Speaker 6:

Cops drive with no headlights on. I've seen it so many times in every city, and I've got hit by a guy with no headlights on. Oh, jeez. So it just irritates the hell out of me.

00:06:37 - 00:06:45 | Speaker 1:

Cops drive with no headlights on. I wonder why they're driving with no headlights on. That's crazy. I wonder if the cars, maybe those cars don't have the auto headlights like my car does.

00:06:45 - 00:06:53 | Speaker 6:

No, no, no. I've asked them, and they say that way they can come up on speeders. Oh. Oh. By the way, that's dangerous.

00:06:53 - 00:07:01 | Speaker 1:

I had a friend of mine that won a ticket because he said that the cop was in private property. He wasn't supposed to be sitting there radaring. And the judge let him off.

00:07:01 - 00:07:02 | Speaker 3:

Wow.

00:07:02 - 00:07:07 | Speaker 1:

In Oakland County, yeah. So if they're in private property, they're not supposed to be sitting there radaring you. What's going on, Susan?

Kevin, come on. Every job has its perks. You're right. If you work in McDonald's, you get free fries.

00:07:22 - 00:07:23 | Speaker 1:

Huh? There you go.

00:07:23 - 00:07:29 | Speaker 2:

Eating free fries isn't illegal. But they all have their perks

00:07:29 - 00:07:31 | Speaker 1:

Yeah What do you do for a living, Susan?

00:07:33 - 00:07:38 | Speaker 2:

right now or yet uh towards southfield okay all right uh breaker one nine ten five four four six five uh we got a uh black charger driving at dearborn heights right now pull him over and Just give him a ticket for picking his nose. What's going on, Marty?

00:08:52 - 00:09:34 | Speaker 5:

Well, I'm a retired policeman. Spent over 30 years in Detroit. Thank you for your service, man. Thank you. And one thing that's taken into consideration, when I started on the job in the early 70s, a lot of police were getting shot. And when we patrol, you know, yeah, we turn our lights off so we can see them more. But when you stay still, you're a target. People were shooting at policemen back then like they're doing, like they did the last few years. And, you know, and we didn't use our lights above when we're doing a traffic stop because at nighttime you're a target. Just use your four-way blinkers.

00:09:34 - 00:09:34 | Speaker 1:

Yeah.

00:09:35 - 00:09:38 | Speaker 5:

And, like, now everybody uses their lights, but we didn't.

00:09:39 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, listen, I don't know. I could never be a police officer, a military person, or a firefighter. Anybody that has to run into the line of fire or the craziness while others are running out, to me, I just couldn't do it. So respect to them.

00:10:00 - 00:10:12 | Speaker 6:

do feel like unfortunately marty some bad apples have caused for some problems you know and uh we got to focus on that you know what it's like it's like the bad radio people that we have to

00:10:12 - 00:10:22 | Speaker 3:

like live our lives by you know our job is actually kind of not fair to anybody else in our life that we tell a story about yeah think about that because we are the ones that have the microphone

00:10:22 - 00:10:39 | Speaker 6:

in front so we can kind of control that's right we got the bullhorn yep i still know they be doing illegal stuff. They'd be going straight through lights. They'd be turning left when they're not supposed to. He drives a white Grand Cherokee with one taillight that's broken because I'm going to go out there and break it up.
