Today, after taking my crush to the train station late at night, I sat in a local park alone with my thoughts for a while. Two cops appeared out of nowhere and started searching me for drugs and weapons, asking me questions for a good 30 minutes. Not the kind of action I expected tonight. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was on a date with someone I've had a crush on for a long time. It was after midnight, we were chatting in the car and I was close to having my first kiss ever. That is, until a bunch of policemen popped up to arrest my date for being a suspected drug dealer. FML
Today, I was having a rough day and decided to go out for a walk at 1 a.m. to clear my head. I ended up being driven home by two cops, who thought I was prostituting myself at the truck stop. When we arrived, they had a nice conversation with my parents. FML
Today, I parked next to a police officer's car in a bad part of town. When I got out, I saw a bag of pot on the ground between the cop's car and mine. When I pointed it out to him, he insisted it was mine and interrogated me to the point of tears. FML
Today, I was chilling out with my friend in a parking lot, when a police officer came up to the vehicle and suspiciously asked what we were up to. My friend sarcastically said, "Uh, doing drugs? Planning a drive-by? Haha!" We soon found ourselves in the back of a cop car. FML
Today, I was sitting behind some bushes in the dark enjoying the view, when some cops came and confiscated my night-vision goggles, then warned me for acting like a "creepy perv." FML
Today, I caught some perverts sitting in a car in front of my house, spying on my neighbors. When they refused to leave, I grabbed a baseball bat and they sped off in a hurry. Later, those same perverts came back to arrest my neighbors for drug trafficking. I had threatened cops. FML
Today, I was at a party when the cops showed up. They asked whether anyone had a gun, but I heard "fun" instead and raised my hand. I got searched. FML
Today, I discovered that sitting in the back of your car from 8 to 9 p.m. talking with a friend in a park area is suspicious enough behavior to have cops called on you, then for backup to arrive. FML
Today, someone left their drug bag on the table in the lounge at my place, probably a friend, and probably a mistake. The next minute the cops knock on the door and force their way in. Immediately the cop spots the drug bag and cuffs me. It wasn't even my bag. FML
Today, as a joke, I hopped in the front seat of a police cruiser and took a cute selfie while the officer was talking to someone on the sidewalk. A minute later, he dragged me to the ground and arrested me. Um… what? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Shame on you for having a valid reason to be out at night.

YDI for "expecting action"

So... because OP was hoping to have sex (which is a pretty normal thing to hope for), he deserves to get interrogated by the police for no reason? There's nothing wrong with wanting sex, as long as you don't force that desire onto someone who doesn't want it. And there's nothing in the fml to suggest that OP did that.

Well they obviously let you off unless you actually had something

"The saint laughed at Zarathustra, and spake thus: 'Then see to it that they accept thy treasures! They are distrustful of anchorites, and do not believe that we come with gifts. The fall of our footsteps ringeth too hollow through their streets. And just as at night, when they are in bed and hear a man abroad long before sunrise, so they ask themselves concerning us: Where goeth the thief? (...)"

All cops have a quota they have to meet , meaning they have to write so many tickets or otherwise. I'm sure we all have noticed during certain times of the month they are out in full force just to fill the quota. That's when they start looking for any little thing they can pop someone for.

Incorrect sir. I am a cop and it's illegal for the department to even mention that you have to to write tickets

I know here most of are parks are public property and close at sunset. Trespassing could lead to a day in jail. Also, when you are on park grounds you give them full right to search you are your vehicle if it is within park property. I am saying ydi for parking in a dark, sketch place alone. Did the cops go to far, in my opinion, no.

Yeah especially if they asked to search him. And they might have only patted him down for weapons, a lot of people confuse that for a search. And since when is talking to someone and asking what they are up to late a night a bad thing, cops are suppose to talk to people who are doing things out of the ordinary

Cops do NOT have the right to search you or you're vehicle without probable cause or a warrant ...if you were just sitting in a park then you did not provide them probable cause and even though most public parks do close after certain times unless you're town is enforcing a curfew for a specific reason cops won't bother you for just being in a public park. I go down to mine all the time and just walk through it at like 3AM when I can't sleep and even though the area is policed late at night I've never been bothered by the cops even though technically the park closes at 10:30 PM and doesn't open back up until 5:30 AM. I have seen the police come into the park to take a drunk fresh from the bar and sleeping it off on a park bench from the park to the drunk tank for the night but that's about it. Over the years I have found this to be true for most places....if you're not causing trouble the police won't bother you for being in a public park no mater how late it is. That being said if you're not causing any trouble then just cooperate with the police.

I can actually confirm the exact opposite. Most countries I've been to, especially European countries, have laws allowing police officers to investigate, search and question suspect behaviour.
