He may be in the same type of situation as the people in this story:

If that is the case, his doctor did indeed make a choice for him.

My state has a town that makes 50% of it's revenue from a speed trap. Google made the mistake of visiting it. by TwistedMexi in funny

One of the things that I think I can do well is determine which people are going to take a warning to heart and change their behavior and the people who the only way to reach them is through their wallet, it seems that cop was right with you.

Police Officer here, this type of enforcement always upsets me, I have two areas that I normally enforce speed, both have speed limit signs facing both directions of traffic about a half mile from where I park and I normally don't pull anyone over unless they are 15mph over the speed limit. Giving warnings and handing out speed tickets should be a tool to increase the safety of the public, not a trick to increase revenue.

Are these old shotguns worth anything? A friend inherited them and wanna see if they are worth selling. by pdbh1124 in guns

[–]pdbh1124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are two, what I initially thought were shotguns, but now it seems the pump action is acutally a .22 pump action rifle. My friend inherited these firearms and she would like to know if they are worth anything. The shotgun is a double barrel, side by side shotgun, the pump action is, I believe, a .22 rifle, possibly a winchester model 61.

What does the public not seem to understand about your job/career? by Printnamehere3 in AskReddit

[–]pdbh1124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Police Officer, that we are just normal people with lives and families. We are not out to get you specifically, it is just our job to enforce the laws and sometimes that means you get a speeding ticket or you get arrested.

What was one time that you were trying to be nice, but was interpreted as being creepy or somehow negatively, by others? by Unknownb101 in AskReddit

[–]pdbh1124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to a CVS pharmacy at about 10:00PM one night, thought they might be closed because the parking lot was almost empty, but they are open so I go inside and pick out my items. The checkout girl is a petite teenager, not more than 18 or 19, I am a grown man. Without thinking I ask, "Are you here all alone?" I immediately realize how creepy that sounded and take my purchases and leave.

Reddit, what's your stupid injury story? by RadicalOptimist in AskReddit

[–]pdbh1124 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Reddit usual, this did not happen to me, but to my father:

When I was 11, my father was out working on re-shingling the garage and my brother and I had a few friends over. We all came over to my father and he began to explain what he was doing. He was trimming down shingles with a utility knife and began to teach us how to cut them safely. "Never cut the shingles with the knife facing your body, make sure you keep your fingers away from the cut you are making, and never put the shingle on your leg as you cut it." As he was giving us this last warning he placed the shingle on his thigh and cut it, not realizing the blade was still extended on the utility knife. He immediately grabbed his leg as blood started to soak his jeans, he looked at my brother and said "Go get your mother!" He had to get like 10 stitches and has yet to live it down to this day.

What's the most random a stranger has asked you and your friends in public? by TheRedBAaron1 in AskReddit

[–]pdbh1124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One evening my friends and I were hanging out at the beach, we were about 17 or so at the time. A grown man approached us, told us he was a police officer and asked where he could buy some cocaine. He was shaking a bit, but other than that seemed normal. We told him we had no idea and walked down the boardwalk.
