Salem cops are not friendly, they do not care, they are only after your money and freedom.

As a small business owner, theft has been on the rise since 2020 and we were starting to feel helpless. We have leaned in to our resources, and I've been so happy for your hard work. We see regular police cars patrolling, which is a relief. Your Deputies have also spent time educating my employees, and myself, about our rights as a small business and empowered us to stand up against this theft.

They are highly skilled in mind-fuckery. They move you from room to room for no reason, keep the temp just high enough to not kill, keep information about you from you, and treat you as if you've already been convicted. I'm not sure who sucks more--corrections officers or police officers. And you better not question their authority. If you do, you'll end up all by yourself in a cold room with an extended stay. All this, for a charge that was ultimately dropped. Fuck I hate cops. As for the courthouse, those of us who can, in the courts eyes, afford to hire our own lawyer will waste tons of money because 90% of your court appearances will last no longer than 5 minutes. How much do you think a real lawyer will charge for this? Waste of goddamn time and money. A lawyer once told me that Marion county is the second worst county in Oregon. I believe it.

The chief, officers and staff are always at lots of community events and the dedication of their volunteers rivals that of any non-profit in town.

First and foremost, I hope and pray to the peacock angel Lucifer (having a temporal personage in Dick Cheney) that we never get a new police station in Monmouth. Great for Highway 99, delightful to have a secure area to seize and hold evidence (cars , vans, even mobile homes like the one(s) where I currently reside in Yolk County. And I can't say I recall meeting any of them lately, and being a collegiate drug dealer in the Eugene Corvallis corridor, it's best to keep up appearances in one group of peeps, and overall send conflicting signals. Don't know anything about the VIlle, and aside from the times Monmouth local peeps bogarted my stash and snatch locally I still has Benevolent Tenancies Towards the fuzz. At the same time, I'm tired of the man keepin' me down! I'm H James Tharp, local Monmouth/Independence oddball sports personality, and I approve of this Yelp review.

I WAS DOING THE SPEED LIMIT. I was concentrating on what was in front of me and not focusing on what was going on behind me when I hear a loud voice over an intercom telling me " PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT LANE IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GO THE SPEED LIMIT" It startled me to the point he is lucky I didn't cause an accident. I merged over into the right lane and he passed me . THERE WERE TWO CARS IN THE RIGHT LANE ** 2 car lengths BEHIND ** me going less than the speed limits obviously or else they would have been next to me. After a half of a block OSP changed lanes and got in front of me . This when I threw my hands up and pointed to the cars driving slower than me in the right lane . DONT ABUSE YOUR AUTHORITY DUE TO IMPATIENCE. You are NOT above everyone else driving who obeys speed limits. I'm beginning to think Police are the nerdy kids back in highschool who told on everyone and ate lunch with the teachers . No wonder OSP is always hiring. Who would wanna work around men and woman that just must be a real fun time at BBQs. What a joke. I have never had a ticket or been in an accident in my lifetime. I'm a good driver and NEVER have I been told to get over on a surface st. Not have I ever been yelled at over a megaphone from a moving vehicle . Isn't that only a rule on 1-5 and other Oregon freeways? I will never advocate for the Police again. No wonder people have zero respect nowadays for law enforcement. I was unaware until today that Police didn't want anyone to abide by a speed limit in oregon.
