    Question Do you have the right to flip off a cop?

    Admins, please delete this thread. It's evident that my inquiry isn't welcome here.

    Eh, that's not really the answer I was looking for but I'll make a note that it certainly makes officers irate.

    But seriously, I am looking for some well thought out answers. I need actual opinions for a class. And before you say "We're not here to do your homework", I must tell you that this is considered optional. I am only here to strengthen my argument by having actual testimony.

    Feel free to put your instructors name and phone number on here and we'll give you an honest answer. If this is your topic for class, either you are developmentally disabled or your school sucks.

    Do Police have the right to flip off college students? It is a discussion in my weekly briefing and it would help me a lot if someone could answer this for me.

    It's for Mock Trial and we are dealing with an issue regarding the First Amendment. If no one is intent on providing some sort of articulate response then I will be gone. You seem annoyed that I would ask a legitimate question in a forum call "Ask a Cop".

    Yes. You have the right to flip off a cop. You cannot be convicted of a crime in America for expressing yourself.

    Having said so, I have a great deal of discretion in how to do my job.

    For instance, I have the option in all of my traffic contacts to warn, cite, or arrest. A poor attitude can effect how I use my discretion.

    Alright, well with that I will be leaving.

    I thank you all for your service to your respective communities, but I guess your ability to assist someone in need doesn't extend to some college kid on the internet who needed the opinions of LEO's.

    No, I guess not. I wade through blood and guts day after day, I deal with little girls getting raped, women getting beat till they are bloody, clean up brains on the road after a drunk driver plows into a family, and still go home and hug my kids and try to lead a normal life. But you come on here and ask, if you can give me the bird, gee I am sorry.

    LOL Chief, I liked the broken finger response! I used to return the finger when it was directed at me. Stupid cowards got the funniest look on their faces. :beer:

    If you really want LE opinions, why aren't you asking officers in person?

    I personally think he should go out and put his question to the test. If he was really serious and wants to excel in school, I would do a real test and flip off every cop that goes by him, he is sure to find one man.
