Do You Know What Police Officers Do and Why?
LAW ENFORCEMENT FROM A LIBERTARIAN PERSPECTIVE.
Steve Pomper, an Active Duty Police Officer and author of, Is There a Problem, Officer? A Cop’s Inside Scoop on Avoiding Traffic Tickets (The Lyons Press, 2007) Seattle Curiosities (Globe-Pequot Press, 2009) and It Happened in Seattle (Globe-Peqot Press, 2009). In Officer Steve gives the scoop on how to avoid saying and doing those things virtually guaranteed to irritate an officer right out of a warning mood and into slapping you with a ticket. In Curiosities Steve takes you on a fascinating tour into some of the strangest and most mysterious nooks and crannies the Emerald City has to offer. And in It Happened Steve tells some of the greatest stories about what makes Seattle the Queen of the Great Pacific Northwest, and one of the most intriguing cities in America.
Veteran Seattle police officer and author Steve Pomper gives drivers tips and answers questions on how to behave during a traffic stop that may increase their chances of getting a friendly warning rather than a costly citation. And can discuss the uniqueness of Seattle, modern and historical. Or Steve likes to simply talk about writing and libertarian issues in general.
