    This exactly! Every APD interaction has been great, don’t act a fool and they leave you be. Even drunk walking around E ATL/L5P/Highlands/Midtown. You could talk to them and as long as you were cool and they werent busy.

    IDK if thats changed, I hope not.

    There was a lot of PTSD in this group, I’ve know them since so 20+ years. Lots of self medication, a few self deletes, they open up every so often but it rare. The Scot guard and the Royal Marines seem have the worst of it. I don’t think there was any Royal Navy in this group, or if they were they didn’t talk about it.

    Which makes sense considering the Exocet’s and the A-4’s really made a mess of their ships.

    This happened 2002, I used to hang at an expats bar in Atlanta. It was wild APD split the bar in half. If you were English/Scot/Irish/etc an officer would escort them to the bathrooms on the other side of the establishment and walk them back. 90% of the expats served in the Falklands and were begging for a fight.

    The Argentinians were younger/mostly kids. Never probably served so it was so insane how angry the expats were.

    The chant most sung was “Go home you dirty Argey bastards go home go home” over and over again. There were others but thats the one I remember.

    Match ended the police escorted the Argentinians out as this was an expats bar. Expats went full retard as they won, hammed drunk in the AM, needless to say none of them were going to work lol






  • Oh its worse you want to be able to enter Canada w/ a prior DUI you can if you pay around $10k usd for a government pardon.

    And with the 10k spent doesn’t guarantee they will approve and will keep the money… So kiddo’s don’t get a DUI if you want to go to Canada.

    As for a simple DUI in the US its a minor crime. If you hit aggravated DUI you catch a felony and you’re fucked.

    Aggravated is a high BAC, minor in the car, DUI crash with or without injuries, excessive speed while under the influence.

    There are more, the Police have plenty of ways to burn you hard if you are do something this stupid.

    I know so much as my buddy would bitch up a storm about us going up to go fishing and he can’t go.
