See! You hit the nail on the head.

I too would be HUGELY annoyed if my neighbor used his noisy lawnmower at 4:30

But an ARREST? That too the first time the police came by?

Something is amiss here. If I had to guess, Mr. Sleepless in Oklahoma mouthed off to the female officer

Since he was released ON THE SCENE with a ticket, it makes me thing he was being argumentative.

I always tell everyone, even if the police officer is completely in the wrong, don’t lose your cool. It will never work. If the fuzz is honest, you will just offend him with your mouth. If the fuzz is crooked, he will now go out of his way to punish you.

But then you would be guessing. That may not be the case.

I have seen some totally out of control cops hollering at totally polite citizens.

LOL, I haven’t heard cops refered to as the fuzz in years.

Is grass still growing in OK? As hot as it has been and the fires I would think that grass cutting wasn’t a big priority.

If that had been me I probably would have gotten a DUI. I like a frosty friend with me when I cut grass. However, 4:30 am might be a little early for one.

My neighbor would have put a magnum round through the motor then rolled over and went back to sleep.
