Except he did the same thing without so many words. Just because he didn't say that was the reason he was gonna give her a ticket doesn't mean it wasn't the reason....

How is that abuse of power? You can't ask someone out if you're a cop? He wasn't going to give her a ticket because he thought she would say yes, and when she didn't there was no reason not to. Its not like he said "I won't give you a ticket if you go out with me"

Wow... brain fail. I sincerely hope you're just a child who doesn't really understand these things. Otherwise I feel really bad for you.

Here, I'll spell it out for you. A policeman is in a position of authority and thus any civilian, especially a young woman, is in a position of vulnerability. He can ask out anyone he wants when he's off duty and not wearing a uniform. However, using his position, a position that endows him with power and authority, in order to solicit women, is illegal. It would definitely get him disciplined if he was caught, and not to mention that morally it's nothing short of skeezy. If you can't make sense of this concept then I feel bad for you, and any women who have to deal with you.

Wow you are a giant dumbass. HE SAID SHE WASN'T GETTING A TICKET SO SHE DIDN'T FEEL OBLIGATED. When he realized she was just hitting on him to get out of a ticket, he gave it to her anyway. The cop did nothing wrong you dumb bitch.

No anywhere does it say she was hitting on him.

It is abuse of power. He's pretty much showing that he can wave the ticket if he wants to. A lot of cops misuse their power as officers. Speeding and everything just to show that they can.

Who's really the dumb one? She said she was conversing not flirting. And if you were mature you would already know that. If a girl says your name does she automatically want to sleep with you?

If the cop said "go out with me or ill give you a ticket," then it would be blackmail. Go read a dictionary.

Wow, you're even dumber than you first let on. Apparently "reading between the lines" is something that is beyond you. Blackmail doesn't have to follow a formula. When the policeman indicated to her that he would have to give her a ticket afterall, he was basically telling her to change her mind or else. Whether or not she deserved the ticket in the first place is moot - but forcing her to make such a disgusting choice, he was extorting her.

Here read the fml again tard. Today, I was pulled over for speeding. After a few minutes of conversing, he told me he didn't need to give me a ticket. He then asked for a date. I politely declined. After staring at me for a very long moment, he said "I think I'm going to have to give you that ticket after all". if the cop stated there was no reason to give the ticket and politely flirted, it is exactly that, although unprofessional. if the cop stated that she needs to go out with him or she gets a ticket, then it is direct blackmail. if the cop states there is no reason for a ticket, asks her out, is turned down, and proceeds to state that she does deserve a ticket after all then it is indirect blackmail. the cop could be put on suspension for conspiracy

Do you even know what blackmail is? If the cop had done anything to make it seem like she would have gotten a ticket if she turned him down, it would have been blackmail. But he didn't, so it wasn't. And keepitundercover, who says the cop would have changed his mind if she accepted the date afterwards. Do humanity a favor and go kill yourself you retarded ****.

Seriously, she was hitting on him to get out of a ticket and the cop accepted because he thought she honestly liked him. When he asked her out she declined, he realized she just didn't want a ticket and gave her one for leading him on. If you seriously think the cop was forcing himself on her you are an idiot.

Where does it say she was hitting on him? They were "conversing" not flirting.....

Of course it says that the OP would sound like a manipulative **** if she said flirting. That doesn't mean its not true.

Yea that's true.. but you shouldn't just assume she was flirting =)
