I heard of a policeman making a traffic stop -- none of the guys spoke English. He called in on the radio and came back and said everyone with brown shoes was going to be arrested -- they all looked down to see what color shoes they had on.

You know those tiny voice operated tape recorders. I actually carried one in my pocket, when I was on duty with a certain doctor. In Fl. it's illegal to record someone without their knowledge and consent. If I had had to use the recordings.......the law would have been down on me. But I had to with this guy. Fortunately, things never went that far.
in the federal courts it probably wouldn't have done any good if you did have direct evidence -- we have 'the best judges money can buy'
