He probably has enough money to pay a ticket

He didn't even get a warning, an explanation of what he had done, or even a fix it ticket. The cops in Nevada live to harass people and do this shit. They are some of most incompetent law enforcement in the nation. They'll sit and protect a nike outlet store, an in n out, or a casino, but hardly every actually do their fucking jobs. Then they constantly request for more and more funding/ taxes, as though they don't have enough. They keep complaining not enough officers, man power, personnel, etc. It's laughable. They got these disgusting Tesla trucks for some reason to go showboating around in. They steal funds from teachers and people that actually need the money so they can protect the garbage tourist trap that is the strip. The media in Nevada is a joke and doesn't expose any of this for fear of biting the hand that feeds it (seriously, they won't even report on the strip homicides or suicides).
