Complaining about a soldier's funeral procession?

Also, driving 20mph on a freeway without police escorts all around is not a good thing and add to the fact that they were making U-turns after the procession and almost getting themselves hit by other vehicles.

Sounds like she had a formal complaint to me, esp. to the dicks that yelled at her for apparently no reason instead of calmy asking to stop I mean wtf grow up. The sheiriffs response doesn't make sense to what she even typed out. I wondering if he even read it. His whole reply was "how good he was", but her complaint had nothing to do with her "being inconvienced", but that some in the procession were causing danger on the road.

It doesn't matter if they were not in her lane. If a funeral procession rolls by no matter what lane you are in, you are suppose to pull over and wait til they pass no matter if it is a soldier or not. I agree about the motorcycles, they should have never gotten involved.

The escorts are basically traffic cops while en route. They have the right to stop, block and direct traffic.

Bitch should have heeded their requests.

Did you read your florida law?

There is a whole list of rules that goes along with it escorts. They train you and shit if you read the article you posted and you have to have an equipped vehicle for it. I willing to bet the motorcycle duo weren't trained or had properly equipped vehicles to act as "escorts." So them interfering with traffic was still as unneeded as me trying to pull someone over for speeding on my way home from work.

I think it's more along the lines of her writing the sheriff to complain about being inconvenienced. I get cut off and held up all the time. Tractor trailers taking up a lane, or turning, or backing into a driveway.. I've never written my sheriff to get those scuzzy truckers out of my way.

Yes, I read it.

I'm willing to bet you are wrong.

A gentleman I know owns a motorcycle escort business. He and just about everyone who works for him is a Vietman Vet. Some might be looked upon as "scuzzy" by snooty bitches like her.

Each of them has been trained by the state and is issued a properly equipped motorcycle.

Working from her email, which can be assumed to be self serving, the only crimes that she alleges to have occurred are traffic violations. Should the sheriff set up a task force to investigate two bikers who illegally blocked an intersection for a short time?

Lets try an experiment.

Next time you are riding and you come to a stoplight next to a middle aged women...if her window is open stick your head in and start screaming at her.

See what happens.

I didn't go through the code...but what part of the training allows you to stick your head in someones window and scream at them.

I'd go for certification just to be able to do that legally.

Again, do you have any proof that it actually happened like that?

I could tell you that I was once arrested and searched by cops for no reason at all. That was my story. Doesn't change the fact that when he pulled me over, he probably wondered if he had to call the FD with all the pot smoke rolling out of the car.

Guess what? The judge didnt believe my story of innocence anymore than I believe hers. I think she's a lying sack of shit. But you seem to believe because she wrote it on paper, it must be true?

Doesn't matter what you think or whatever history you may have.

An incident was reported to law enforcement. It is now their job to see if laws were broken.

And he did so by sending the complaint to its intended person. The nice response is just a bonus.

Why ask me to post it if you can't be bothered to read it?

Title XXIII, Chapter 316.1974 deals specifically with funeral processions. Here are a few facts:

-Traffic must halt when directed by a police officer or funeral escort. If traffic fails to halt, escort may reprimand stupid bitches verbally from a distance of not more than three feet. This may include sticking one's head into the vehicle of stupid bitches' vehicle.
-Not everything you read on the internet is as it seems.
-pauldun should cease his taint-like antics in this thread
