I'm going to reply to the first post to get my comment on the top, even though my comment has nothing to do with the first one!

Actually, I don't think the cops could have done anything if they were being suspicious. Thanks to George Bush, if you see someone suspicious, you can do all kinds of illegal stuff. And while you might still get in trouble, if they look remotely Muslim, you can get away with anything. Hooray for racist governments!
Wow, you're an idiot. George Bush has nothing to do with the actions taken in this story. You're probably one of those people who blames Bush for every shortcoming in your life.
I agree. I don't mind that people have their opinions about Bush, but geez! People are willing to kill off Captain America to say "I hate Bush" (True story)
HAHAHA this is a hilaaaarious FML!!! But your life isn't fucked...
@74 common sense would suggest its because that would compromise their job. how are they to know the psycho bat weilder isnt on good terms with the neighbours and let them know exactly what was going on?
#86...
"if they look remotely Muslim"
What does Muslim look like? Does it look like Christian or Orthodox?
A MUSLIM IS A FOLLOWER OF ISLAM, not a "race" or ethinicty.
they wear fucking towels on their heads and have bombs strapped around their chests. also, most of them have long beards and sand falls out of their shoes where they walk.
how dare you say that about a religion. im not muslim, but i have muslim friends and believe me, neither them nor their parents have towels on their heads, bombs strapped around their chests, long beards or sand falling out of their shoes.
i have two muslim friends that wear scarves to cover their hair, what the fuck does that have to do with you?
fuck the OP, fYOURl, because you are that sad to discriminate a whole religion by the actions of some stupid idiotic terrorists. im guessing your american, (not that all americans hate muslims), but only an american could hate on that religion THAT bad.
you are sad, go play in traffic.
Wow, it sickens me that there are people in this world that uneducated. There are sick people in every race, color, creed, religion, nationality, sexuality, gender or anything else you can imagine. Some of the most beautiful and sweet people I have ever met are Muslim, and they've devoted their lives to saving those of others in the medical field, or educating as teachers and professors.
Grow a brain.
true fact: 99% of the people you wear turbans are SIKH. not muslim, and no one forces WOMEN to wear hijabs, the women actually choose to wear them to reflect modesty. Of course there will be the extremeists (aka the ones your talking about wearing "towels and bombs", but thats their CULTURE, not the muslims.
muslims=followers of islam
islam=religion
just like christians=followers of christianity
christianity=religion
therefore muslims are NOT terrorists.
"the more you know"
ha...i love this. you threatened a cop...niice.
But, I agree completely with #149, mz200sx.
You had no way of knowing if they were doing their job right.

Not your fault, you did the right thing
Also, 2nd?

No, you're not second if you were asking. There's a little # followed by a number in the bottom-leftish portion of your comment. Also, had you actually been second you would have been buried as you most undoubtedly already will so please just understand that calling out your number is immature. There are no hidden cool people on the internet who will be your friend for calling out your place...especially incorrectly.
Now, OP, I'm going to say you did the right thing. They won't do anything to you because they're undercover and if they were doing their job they'd know you didn't work for the drug trafficker. Although its a damn shame we're wasting our valuable resources to put on a show for the world when in reality drugs are NOT the root cause of all or most that is bad with our world. They're better than some things that ARE legal in fact.
Oh wow. Took the words right out of my mouth. Especially in regards to #3.
I think I love you.
I love how everyone responds to the "#1!!!" or "#2!!" comments with things like, "no one cares, get a life" Obviously you care enough to respond. And obviously you dont have enough of a life to just ignore it. So really just let them call out first if they want, does it do anyone any harm?
isn't it more immature to type a paragraph about somebodys immaturity?
By telling those people that they're annoying, we're hopefully trying to diminish the comment board. I mean, if you look at the scroll bar, you can see how small it gets by everyone commenting, and I can guarantee you half, if not one third, is about correcting grammar or posting something unrelated to the original post.
We also let them know that they accomplish nothing with being the first, third, twenty-fourth, etc. and just report abuse on their asses. Most people seem to have learned not to state their number anymore, but every once in a while you get the new idiot who feels the need to "claim" their victory.
#84, as you can see I didn't say 'no one cares, get a life'. I was simply informing the person that they were incorrect in their number calling and adding my opinion. I assumed they were trying to look cool for someone because what other reason is there for calling out your number? I then informed them that there are no hidden cool people to try and look cool for.
As you can see I also put my opinion on the OP's situation and so I wasn't just feeding a troll but rather hoping to change their perspective. Ignoring the problem is like staying neutral. Its just as bad, if not worse, than actually taking an opinion on the matter don't you think?
#96, if that was directed at me, I don't believe I wasted the whole paragraph on calling them immature.
"No, you're not second if you were asking. There's a little # followed by a number in the bottom-leftish portion of your comment. Also, had you actually been second you would have been buried as you most undoubtedly already will so please just understand that calling out your number is immature. There are no hidden cool people on the internet who will be your friend for calling out your place...especially incorrectly."
I believe you wasted most of the paragraph, just in case you cant read..
Are you jealous because I put together a comprehensive paragraph somewhat explaining everything that was wrong with that comment? Where does it say that writing a paragraph answering someones question is, in itself, immature?
Where does it say that since the paragraph has to do with immaturity it is immature itself?
Honestly, it looks like you were just trying to be a bitch with no reason whereas one could argue I was looking like an asshole, but at least I was trying to do something about the problem. Meanwhile you sit on the outskirt, trying to sound witty but accomplishing nothing.
hahahaha now you're just sounding more like a dumbass. if you werent so fucking insecure you wouldnt sit on fmylife.com critiquing peoples comments and trying to do "something about the problem." that is just fucking pathetic. if you want to solve problems go be a fucking cop. people will still hate you just as much.
Hahahaha cops don't 'solve' anything. They aid in maintaining the same inefficient order we're used to.
Right, I'm sounding like a dumbass. I'm sure. Really you're just being a nitpicky bitch at the moment and I wonder what crawled up your vagina and died that you'd have to take it out on me?
the question should be what crawled up your vagina to have to take your anger out on other people.
maybe I'M trying to solve the problem of stupid fucking assholes on you coming on here and being rude to people that are just trying to have fun. you seem like the asshole bully that everyone hated, that was mean to people for no reason whatsoever. instead of doing that maybe you should try and think of things that actually matter in life, okay?
bye now
Your argument implies I should stop what I'm doing, which is exactly what you're doing. But really, who cares? You basically reworded what I said, and threw it back at me which is flattering I suppose?
You think I don't know what matters? Do you?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHiuaGJ46zo
That's what matters.
Hey at least you were trying to be a good samaritan, I’m sure everyone could appreciate that..even the cops :)
I imagine they deemed it smarter for them to drive off and not break their cover, than to flash their badges and risk alerting the family they're targeting that they're cops.
I think if they weren't busy with other things, though, they would have arrested you IF the road they were parked on was a public road; you can't chase people off public property using threats of violence, you know.
#27 - On 07/02/2009 at 10:43am by musu
not true. if you were an undercover cop, trying NOT to be a cop in front of a drug dealers house, you probably loved the fact that some man just called you a pervert. Excellent cover for sitting in a car for hours on end. You would not go around flashing your badge and being all HEY I'M A COP GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE BECAUSE I'M A COP CARRYING A BADGE!!!!!!!
You weren't to know, if they were sitting in front of your house they deserved it.
they were trying to do their job, and they deserve it?
They could have said something...
Yes, because telling everyone in the neighborhood that they were undercover cops would have been the intelligent thing to do while undercover.
YOU FTW!
#71 - On 07/02/2009 at 1:34pm by EFFyourlifecait
think of this way. the cops are scared of you.. haha ur the shit.
although in reality they just didn't want their cover blown so they left or else they would have fucked you up.
Well, I haven't voted either way, because you are just epic! The undercover cops still got their job done without much difficulty, and you got to "scare" them away with a baseball bat!!! Honestly, even if I saw actual perverts staring at my neighbours house, I would be a bit too scared to try and drive them away. So, full marks to you for having the guts to defend your neighbourhood.
That wasn't actually meant to be a reply to #6... oh well
you say if they weren't undercover, they'd fuck you up....well if they weren't undercover, OP would know they were cops, therefore would not have chased them off with a bat. just saying...

hahahha thats jokess.. those pigs will get ya
LOL not an fml
wish there is FMYDAY on here :D
#8 - On 07/02/2009 at 10:07am by riaaa
What? Your life doesn't have to be a complete disaster for it to be an FML!!! This is definitely an FML, considering all the lame ones we usually get on this site
Definitely FML. Not only did he accidentally threaten lawmen, but his dealer got arrested too! How's he supposed to get high now?
cops make the best perverts !
hehe is it only me thinking that u can foresee the future?? since u start the story with "today" and finish it with "the next day" :P
This comment has been moderated.
Lol he's just trying to get an angry reaction cos not only did he post "First!" (which severely pisses off about 90% of FML members) but he wasn't actually first. So it was a deliberate fail really.
Hello- tomorrow called to warn you that your neighbours are about to be raided by the cops.
#13 - On 07/02/2009 at 10:10am by hem
Oh you're so clever. Except that this website requires all FMLs to begin with the phrase "Today," regardless of how it may or may not fit in with the story.
Hey genius, we all know that. It's called making a joke.
I wish you were my neighbor -- More people need to look out for each other (Your heart was in the right place, and I bet the police were impressed that you would go to such lengths to keep the "perverts" out of your area).
Not really a FML. Its not your fault nor the cops.
I'm guessing they didn't want to blow their cover? why would they let you run them off. In any case, not really an fml.
unless you got arrested or something, not sure how this is an FML
Maybe it has to do with the fact they were in a dark colored American sedan dumbass
I have to agree with other people, you did the right thing, not an FML.
do you know how dumb that sounds?
It's called "undercover" for a reason.
Good for you for going after pervs, now just make sure you don't have any drugs in your house.
I just hope they didn't fine your anything. Good for your for being a good neighbor!
Seriously. Well at least you didn't get arrested--but I'm sure the cops knew you were trying to help. And if they weren't in jail for drug trafficking, I'm sure your neighbors would appreciate it too. :P
sucks for you! you must really like your neighbors!
You followed your heart and did the right thing. Let's hope those cops understood what you meant.
They must hook you up on drugs haha
FYL, you could have scored some sweet drugs off them before they got busted.
What if you called the cops on the "perverts"? That would have been funny.
Well at least they didn't arrest you
Can you take us through the process of how you decided they were 'perverts'?
They were probably using binoculars to see into the neighbor's house. That kiiind of makes them look like a pervert.
haha , I always had a thing about if its not directly affecting me. Dont get into it. That coulda been u easily aiding the criminals! Lucky you
lol that's pretty funny don't worry they knew you didn't know they were undercover cause if you did know that means they sucked at being undercover. If you think of it that way you were complementing them for a good undercover job.
#42 - On 07/02/2009 at 11:28am by oJo
I would probably have done that too ...
Maybe they've learned to be a bit more subtle in the rougher neighborhoods.
Not really a FML for you, more like an FML for them or your neighbors. At least you didn't get arrested for harassing and possibly assaulting/threatening undercover cops. :3
Not an FML since you were just trying to look out for your neighbors and you didn't get arrested. I'd like to have a neighbor like that.
Dude, I wish you were my neighbor! FYL.
Don't feel bad, you did the right thing based on what you knew of the situation. The fact that they were so conspicuous means that they weren't doing their job right anyway; a stakeout needs to be much more discreet.
Bull to the shit! If they were really cops they wouldn't have sped off as you say.
You did it! You found the bullshit in the story. You should be an undercover cop since you're so unafraid of blowing your cover every chance you get.
Fail.
Yeah, they would have flashed their badge, bring in another cop car with blazing sirens while shouting "THIS IS THE POLICE, DROP THE BAT"
What part of the word undercover dont you get ?
1: You dont say you are a cop to random strangers (op could have just as easily been in league with the criminals, or just have been paid 20 bucks to threaten them in order to find out who they were)
2: You dont blow your cover for a big operation only to arrest one guy who is doing something any good citizen should do.
FYL, we need more people who have the guts to do something.
this was a hard one... but i ended up putting FYL.
i didnt know tjat perverted cops existed O_o
...you didn't? Get out more, hmm?
#66 - On 07/02/2009 at 1:13pm by rayrayy
how were you supposed to know they were cops, thats the whole point.
bro, you did the right thing dont worry
The hunters become the hunted XD
#62 - On 07/02/2009 at 1:04pm by queenrocks10
I think you did a good job
pervert lol because you are the perfect saint who never thinks of girls or boys or whatever your preference is. YDI
sense, you make none of it.
Wow, thats awesome. Hope you didnt get in trouble.
the cops probably respected the fact that you were trying to be chivalrous, roll with it
LOL that's awsome another awsome
Missleading cop 1
Good thing they didn't do anything to you. FYL
youre lucky they didnt arrest your ass.
So you notice perverts but not your neighbors drug trafficking? Nice.
#82 - On 07/02/2009 at 2:28pm by sassyfrass
I'm surprised you weren't arrested.
especially in such a liberal state as california
You did the right thing, you shouldn't feel bad. Instead of being a pussy, you fought back when something seemed wrong, there is no reason to feel ashamed about that. The cops haven't arrested you, so I assume they understand your intentions.
#91, you fail to understand how undercover stakeouts work.
Even if you knew they were cops, you did the right thing.
#4 is it really that fun to be a total douch? otherwise I can't understand why people like you are so persistant. the patriot act is for terrorists, just because they are usually Muslim doesn't meen it's against Muslims, there just aren't that many people except them who do as much terror.
P. S.
if a law allows something, it's not illegal.
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
The PATRIOT act was devised to literally take our civil liberties away. If you look at recent American history, in terms of WWI and on, you can see that we have been duped, like most dictatorships, at every instance. The fact of the matter is is that there are no terrorists but rather that is the image created to keep fear in a society. Al Qaeda does not exist. Muslims do not hate America. There are very few, if any, Muslim extremists that would want to do harm to America and they are no more or less dangerous than they have always been.
Don't believe me? Then ask yourself why it has been almost 8 years and we have gotten nowhere to catching the criminals responsible for 9/11? Where exactly were the links to Saddam Hussein? WMDs? You mean the ones we sold to him? We didn't find them? Oh, perhaps its because he used them already. Duh. If you honestly believe that 9/11 was done by anyone other than US Government agents. You are simply misinformed. There is way too much evidence to refute the terrorist theory that it blows my mind the world hardly cares..

Hahaha, it's all a governmental ploy, of course. Oh dear. xD
The reason we're fighting terrorism is because we don't want it to happen again - the fact that it hasn't happened in so long is a GREAT thing, we don't need to take our chances.
"No terrorists." That's why we got terrorists in the first place - we let our guard down, and they took advantage of it. Why the hell would the government try to kill thousands of people? What PURPOSE would it serve?
"Yes, mhm, mhm. We know - we'll get tons of money from having people wait forever in airports~!"
It's like the back workings of a school, or any workplace. You only notice something's wrong when something bad happens, and otherwise you expect it all to go smoothly. I want there to be no terrorism 100% of te time, because who knows? Maybe it'll be you, me or any one close to us.
Augh.
Most if not all terrorism attacks have been self-induced. And by that I mean the country's own government. I would advise you to look up the London train bombings of 2005 and see who exactly committed those crimes.
What would the government have to gain from it? Let me be clear though, its not the government as a whole but rather the people in the pockets of those that create money. The answer is obvious. WE wouldn't get the money but the people who literally create money, will profit. The longer a 'war' is sustained, the more money the government borrows from the Federal Reserve. Neither the government nor the people own this Federal Reserve so someone has to own the bank right? They make money and loan it to the government. If all money is created on loan set with interest, which it is, then we are always in perpetual debt to those who create the actual money. We don't make a cent off of the wars but somebody does, thats for damn sure.
As you can see, all you have to do is slap a generic face on an enemy and thus you have a war which we'll never technically win. Vietnam it was the Communists don't you see? History repeats itself over and over. Just look at the facts.
On a side note I respect the troops and never in my explanation implied that what they're doing is wrong. They are following orders in this war and its not their fault.

I agree that there are definitely PEOPLE in the government who gain from things like that, but I doubt they would something like 9/11.
I don't necessarily agree with the war, either.
Yay for troops! :]
When you control a nation's money supply, you can do anything. As history shows, money trumps morals all day every day. Take a gander at oil company's profits right around war-time since WWI. And don't forget Afghanistan/Iraq came shortly after 9/11 we just needed an excuse! The Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, and now 9/11. I'm sorry but 9/11 was NOT done by Islamic terrorists. It just serves to further isolate us.
if they were cops, wouldn't they arrested you
I can't believe there are people here defending this moron. This guy was about to use possibly lethal force against people just for sitting in a car? And calling them perverts is supposed to make that right?
I'm glad I don't live around where all of you paranoid vigilantes live...
#100, you are my hero.
It seems that if you call someone a pervert, you can do whatever you want to them, and everyone will support you.
This is why when someone accuses another of sexual abuse or anything like that, a counter-suit should be automatic if the case was a complete falsehood.
So you think it is normal for people to sit outside someone's house in a car with binoculars pointed at them? They obviously weren't just "sitting in a car".
There's a difference between just sitting in your car, and someone sitting there the entire day, watching their house with binoculars. If I saw someone watching someone's house with binoculars, or sitting there for a long time doing nothing, I'd think they were pervs too! Any normal person in the car would just explain themselves, and no one would just sit in their car WATCHING someone's house without being a perv or a cop. Considering they were undercover, he thought the were pervs.
FYLIA, [fuck yer life is awesome~!] I think you're a hero for helping out a neighbor, I sure as hell wouldn't want perverts near my house!
Sucks about yer neighbors, though.
Bahaha I love you.
YDI for being dramatic
But at least you were looking out for your neighbors (even if they were trafficking drugs)
#104 - On 07/02/2009 at 6:57pm by kdb
Now they think you're involved in drug trafficking :p
um, did they do anything? im sick of pointless fmls ughhh.
hey atleast you made them feel good about themselves. Now they know that they make good undercover cops.
you did the right thing man. So did they. If they'd told you who they were you might have told your neighbors to watch out
Not your fault. You were protecting your neighborhood. I'm sure you can apologize to them later.
good thing you didnt hit them, it would kinda suck that the "Perverts" would suddenly hit you back xD but im sure they would understand... after their hospital bill are paid for xD
U fail #3 and to the OP ah that's great u did the right thing chasing them off u thought they were perverts u didn't know and prob wouldn't expect that...but ur lifes not f***ed
So you're the only person alive to threaten cops with a baseball bat and not get arrested. Congratulations and quit your bitching.
Wow, trying to do something nice too...
firstly, fiirce, he wasn't trying to do something nice. he should have minded his own fucking business. it's stuff like this that get people killed. but I couldn't stop laughing when I read this!! the cops should have called for backup, brought down the cavalry and arrested that guy's ass!! lmfao!!!!
Well you can't really be blamed for that, and you were doing a good thing by trying to protect your neighbors.
And it's not like you were getting in trouble, so I think this turns out ok.
HAHAHA )))))))))))))) LOL!!!!! good job, I imagine the picture - police is being threatened with a bat, and cannot do anything about it )) hahaha
haha classic. well good on ya anyway, wasn't really your fault, you were just being a good neighbour
You were protecting your neighborhood, just like they were trying to do. Nothing wrong with that. It's not like they could tell you what they were doing.
The cops ran away first time you came 'round with a bat?
Great cops.
haha why fml its awsome man!
smart cops for not over reacting and arresting you lol not everyday you see smart cops
Well, you had no idea of knowing. At least they didn't arrest you too!
hahahaha. FML makes my day. and not just because of funny FML's. Reading people's comments makes it so much better because everyone gets SO worked up about shit. lolz. lighten up :)
Presuming no other fallout, that's neither your fault, nor FML, that's just cool.
You did the right thing. They could've been trespassing perverts. Turns out they were people conspiring to kidnap & imprison the neighbors.
You got to scare them away once, a good day.
Sadly, if you'd done that when they came to kidnap them, They would have F'd-Your-Life
At least you're a good neighbor. And it's something i would've done if 2 guys were sitting in a car just trying to stare into my neighbors' windows.
Good on you for being community spirited.
Hey how many people can say they threatened two cops with a baseball bat and get away with it. This isn't a FYL at all.
you're not in any trouble. if they didn't tell you they were cops and you had a good reason to threaten them, they can't do anything to you.
THAT A BUDDY!!!!!!!!! THEY DESERVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if they didnt sayany thin....so what
Not your fault. You were worried, that's absolutely ok. Unlucky that it were cops ;D
It's all right, it was a misunderstanding, and if they ask you about it, tell them the truth.
being undercover cops, they most likely would completely understand. you also said you talked to them first, that means that they knew you didn't know they were cops and that you were just being a good citizen looking out for others.
@mz200sk: yea and you arent 'prejudice' at all. Only an American could discriminate that bad? Cause thats not being hypocritical whatsoever.
