$25,000 bail? Sheesh. What’s he going to grab his sign and flee to Mexico?

Contempt of cop is evidently a very serious crime in Stamford, Connecticut.
He interfered with their revenue generation operation. He must be punished and made to never do it again!
Or so goes their thinking.
I suppose they need to define the role of the police to either exist for public safety or revenue generation. Yellow light times and unjustifiable speed limits are a fairly good proxy to which view a particular community takes. I drive a krapton all over the west for fun, and while there are definitely assclowns on the road constantly switching lanes, unsafe passing, and tailgating inches from your bumper, and driving 20mph faster than everybody else regardless if it’s clear and dry or blizzarding, I find the vast majority of drivers sync up and traffic will naturally flow to the conditions. Even if sometimes it is 20mph above the speed limit.
