Police

This Sunday some friends and I had a paintball game. After a couple of matches we went back to our cars for water. We found two police cars just sitting there waiting for us. We decided that the two of us not dressed as paramilitary would go talk to the cops (me and one other friend who shall remain nameless).

The policeman stuck his head out the window of his squad car and asked if we had been paintballing; we told him yes. He said he didn’t want to bust us (apparently we where playing on private property) so we should get out of there. We asked where we could play and he told us “Just go far enough out so that no one can hear you”.

Long story short we did not get in trouble, however it is also a lot of fun to watch seven guys with guns trying to look as non-aggressive as possible while walking past two police cars.

The irony of the situation was that the people who called the cops on us where breaking the law themselves by driving on the private dirt road.

Because everyone else has, here is a picture of my IDs (the Middlesex County College is a camp staff ID)

  2. You guys are really fortunate. Considering what's going on these days with the police and young men; then again I'm not surprised.
