Title: GOT BUSTED...with artillery shells, mortars, and a lighter
Post by: Sikotic™ on July 05, 2005, 08:54:50 PM
So I go to Santa Barbara for the 4th of July weekend with my fam. I didn't want to go because I had a stash of artillery shells (mini fireworks) and M-80's on me that I bought from my Nevada connection. Anyways, I go on the trip because I didn't wanna be an asshole.

We check into the hotel room and when I unload the car, I notice a bad full of alot of shit. I open it and all of my pyro is in the bag. Turns out my muthafuckin little brother went through my closet and took the shit out. I wanted to beat the shit outta him, but instead I threatened him and told him "Next time you go through my shit ever again, you're a dead muthafucka!" Then I get my parents n shit bitchin' at me about it because they feel I was being selfish with the fireworks and didn't wanna share the wealth. Truth of the matter is I was gonna shoot some off if we were all at home because the police out in the 818 are not nearly as strict as Santa Barbara PD.

We go out on the 4th of July, yesterday, and it was beautiful. Bitches were damn near naked at the beach, the sun was out, the ocean was dope, great day. Santa Barbara puts on one of the best fireworks shows on the west coast and it was great.

After the firework show, my dad gets all inspired and wants to shoot off the fireworks they stole from me and brought along. Now look, Santa Barbara was jam packed that day and the roads were closed off because of the amount of people in the city. Therefore, police prescence is at an all time high. There were at least 2 or 3 squad cars on every corner trying to keep peace. I tell my family not to shoot the fireworks now because it's a bad idea with the high police population and because the cops in that area can be real cowboys. Instead of listening to me, they say I'm being selfish and greedy with the fireworks and again and planned on doing it anyways. I went along because hey their my muthafuckin fireworks and I paid for them.

We go to this park. Now the shit was safe, open field in the middle of a baseball diamond. My dad shot off about a dozen artillery shells, not your ordinaty, but they were like 3-in-1 shells, so it was more like 36 that got shot off. He finished them and I go to pick up the mortars that you shoot the fireworks out of and that's when a squad car rolls up and I hear "Hey you come here!"

So I go over there, mortars in hand, and the cops asks me whether or not I was the one that did it. I didn't shoot them off, my dad did, but I'm a loyal muthafucka so I said my dad and I did it. He takes my ID, runs it through n shit. I got a clean muthafuckin record, no misdemeanors, no parking or traffic violations-NOTHING. So he asks me questions about my self - where I go to school, this an dthat. Then he asks me "Can you give me a good reason why you shot off illegal fireworks in the park?" and I tell him "Officer, I can't give you a reason. All I can do is apologize for my mistake." He tells me to sit down and thanked me for my honesty.

I know how to handle cops. You be truthful to them, 9 times out of 10 they will let you off. I've been pulled over many times, but never got a ticket with my method. Anyways, the fuckin cop was gonna let me off, I felt it. He didn't even pull out his citation pad. Then my dad, who had a few too many beers that night, starts hasseling the cop and telling him to put the charges on him. My mom started doing the same thing and they were claiming I didn't do shit. So then the cop realizes he's got some liars on him. One thing a cop cannot stand is a liar. So he starts slipping out threatening to arrest us. He calls me over again and says he's gonna arrest me if he does not get the truth. I assure him my dad had too much to drink, apologized on his behalf and told him that it was a combined effort and not just one person.

I got him to calm down n shit, but by then the fire marshalls got on the scene and collected evidence of all the fireworks we shot off. That's when I knew I was fucked because they were telling the cop how illegal the fireworks were and how they should arrest me. After talking to the fire marshalls for 15 minutes, the cop calls me over again and says this, "You look like a good guy so instead of arresting you like the other officers suggest, I'm going to let you go with a ticket. You're also gonna have to appear at court in August in Santa Barbara. I live 2 hours away from Santa Barbara so I was really pissed about it, but I remained calm, signed the ticket and they finally let me go.

So now I have a misdemeanor charge of "possession of dangerous fireworks" on my record pending. Is it really a big deal? Not really. The only downside is that I may end up paying a very stiff fine that may amount to a couple grand. What makes me so angry is how easily this could have been avoided. I'm safe with fireworks. I've had those things since I was 12 years old and I never got busted, because I'm not a fuckin idiot. If my family didn't fuck me over--by stealing them from me and shooting them off in a place swarming with cops--I wouldn't have a big mess to deal with. That's what makes me so upset, how my own fuckin mother and father basically fucked me over. I would expect it from some friends, not them. I didn't even shoot a fuckin firework off and I get a charge lol. I got no problems with the cops, they were doing their job and I respect them.

I dunno, thought I'd share my ordeal with you guys. I still havent decided whether or not to fight the case or pay the stiff fine.

You could tell your parents that it's their fucking fault that you don't have a clean record any more, and that you will be a given a serious fine..
Maybe they'll feel bad, and your dad will take all the heat, and tell in court that you didn't have anything to do with it, just make sure to get your stories straight..

Sorry but "lol"... ainīt parents the ones thatīs supposed to keep their children out of trouble?  ;)

... fucked up that youīre fined.. hope itīs not gonna turn out to be too much... what exactly do you have to pay? I mean... do you have to pay the firefighters because they just came because of you?  Donīt know too much about the law in the US but when I was young and started drinking it happened to me that I had an alcoholic poisoning and the ambulance had to get me and brought me to the hospital... and I had to pay for it... ended up paying about 800$ which was fucked...

.. and by the way... learn from it and donīt attempt to take fireworks to the airport... lol   ;)

That's fucked up. I hope everything works out for you and I hope your parents pay the fine and a little extra for the mental anguish. lol

Me and my friends did the same thing with 16 mortars. Usually I would fire 2 or 3 off, then chill and look for cops, but it seemed like this year, everyone had illegal fireworks in my city, so after the city fireworks finished (1/2 mile from my house, so there were cops everywhere) we fired every single shell off in the matter of 15 mintues and no one cared.

Does your school have a Legal Services Department?

I remember back in the day, they used to get a bunch of my friends MIP's to disappear.

I dunno, you might have to be enrolled in classes to take advantage of it, but it's worth looking into.

kinda off topic....

dude u ugys are tripping, SB is fucking nuts. well at least Isla Vista is. haha. seriously this is like Sin City #2. theres like unbelievable amount of sex going on here, drugs going around, insane crazy ass amounts of alcohol, like everything to the pumped up max. just ask Suffice .. shits nuts here man. on halloween we get over 50,000 people on just a single 3 block street by the ocean. like going to school here is like vacation man.. everyones a stoner, everyones a lik, you got the beach within a 5 minute walk, and everyone parties like theres no tomorrow. UCSB is ranked the top #20 party school in the nation i believe. other colleges are crazy too, but the thing about isla vista is that instead of all the parties being spread out over the city,etc.. we've got everyone throwing parties within a 1 square mile block. so on any random given weekend, theres prob going to be a party at every other house. i'd say about a good 90% of the UCSB students live in this 1 square mile, so shit gets intense. so like you can just walk around at night and pretty much just go party hopping. its so funny cos you dont even gotta drive, and you can hit up 10 fat parties a night EASY just by walking down the street. haha. the crappy thing is, shits fucking loud here... and sometimes its hard to sleep cos peopel are out all night just fuckin around drunk and yellin.

but yeah i guess the regular city of Santa barbara kinda sucks though, just hella white rich folks that are old.
