I'm surprised that there's a few cops active in this forum as mods/regular members and we haven't heard shits from them.

I don't doubt that the some officers responsible for this frenzy are sharing this thread among their peers and laughing at everything going on here. They know we can't do anything about the VIs whether warranted or not. As I said earlier, it is a loophole that they will abuse unless this power is removed.
I'm sure there are officers on this board that disagree with the actions of the VPD as well, but it is understandable why they do not speak up. It is the same reason little is being done by members here because no one wants to be singled out by an abusive authoritative gang.
This thread is not exclusively being viewed by the car community and there is some very valuable discussion going on here. I used to trust the police to be reasonable and uphold the de facto laws and not de jure (by the book within reason) but this is no longer the case. The next time a VPD officer comes to my door asking for a witness statement, don't expect my cooperation, we have loopholes to protect our rights as well luckily.
