Banksy Stop and Search Print, by Mrs Mouse on Dec 18, 2007 14:30:47 GMT 1, What's my opinion on Banksy's Stop and Search? I'll tell you a little story:
I experienced a situation last year whilst driving through Bristol that made me feel very intimidated by a traffic cop. I'm not trying to compare myself to Dorothy, but people who know me would say that I'm a very conservative, sensible, maybe slightly boring person. My greatest crime has been getting a speeding ticket when I was driving at 40mph in a 30mph zone. I rarely drink and, much to the amusement of my family, I've never been drunk. Yes, really! Anyway, I was with my husband and daughter, and having left the Old Duke after listening to some very enjoyable blues, we jumped into the car to head off home. About 3 minutes into the journey I was waiting at a set of traffic lights when a police car coming in the opposite direction suddenly did a u-turn in the road and came up behind me with lights flashing. I assumed that he was on an urgent mission to keep the streets safe for us law-abiding citizens, so I manouvered my car to allow him to pass. He then put his siren on and practically shook his fist at me whilst motioning me to pull over, which I did. It was pouring with rain, so I gingerly opened my window. The cop then barked at me to "turn off your engine and step out of your car" in an extremely aggressive manner. It was reminiscent of an American B movie, where the cop has just caught up with a bunch of teenage joyriders who had been driving recklessly through the suburbs. So I stepped out of my car and he motioned to me to stand at the back of the car. I thought for a moment that he was going to get me to spread my arms and legs over the boot so he could search me. He was red-faced and scowling, and it crossed my mind that perhaps it was a case of mistaken identity and maybe they thought I was a drug-runner or some other hardened criminal. I seriously started to worry that I was going to be taken away for questioning. I stood in the pouring rain right next to a bus-stop full of gawping people while he mumbled on about the offence I had committed and that he was of the belief that I was "intoxicated with um (long pause) intoxicating liquour". It was almost like he was trying to remember what to say from his book of cop's phrases. He told me to sit in the back of the police car for further questioning. Now I was really starting to get worried, and when my husband got out of the car to find out what was happening he was told to "please return to your vehicle, sir". So I sat in the police car, by now dripping wet, while I was questioned about where I'd been and how much I had drunk. I was obviously stone-cold sober, but the cop repeated his assertion that I was intoxicated. His fellow cop who had been driving the police car looked slightly embarrased while I was repeatedly questioned about how much I had drunk. (it was a bit of a good cop/bad cop situation) I was then told that I would have to wait for the breath-test equipment to arrive. The good cop asked me if I understood why I had been stopped, to which I said I didn't have a clue. He said it was because I was driving without my headlights on, as I had mistakenly only put on my sidelights! We then all sat in the car until a large police van pulled up and 2 more cops got out with the equipment and stood by the side of the car while the test was carried out. The people at the bus stop were still staring at me, probably wondering what dastardly deeds had been committed by this seemingly innocent-looking lady. So the breath test was done, and much to the disappointment of the bad cop, it showed that I hadn't drunk one drop of alcohol. The good cop continued to look embarrassed while the bad cop looked peeved that he didn't get the result he wanted. The good cop then took over and said that he didn't see the need to charge me with a traffic offence. The bad cop then gave me a very stern lecture in his best patronising policeman voice on the importance of putting my headlights on, particularly in the dark!
I don't have a problem with being pulled up if I've committed a traffic offence. My bug-bear is the level of aggression and hostility I experienced. So in a small way, I guess I know what it feels like to be going along minding your own business, innocently getting on with your life, and being subjected to an innapropriate level of heavy-handed treatment by a person in authority. For me, this was really quite a trivial and silly incident, but for people in some part of the world it is a very serious matter and if things get out of hand the results can be disasterous.
That's what the new print means to me.

Banksy Stop and Search Print, by wimpy on Dec 18, 2007 14:41:14 GMT 1, That is good that you can find yourself in the print.
I just don't see how that story is any different that any cop related story over the last 50 years. It isn't like you were accused of anything serious. He just thought you were loaded.
Do you really think that is what Banksy was aiming for here?

Banksy Stop and Search Print, by slowmo on Dec 18, 2007 14:42:32 GMT 1, I was a bit harsh about bomb hugger, but you know what i mean don't you, with mittens for hands and all that plus quite a basic printing style. This looks more considered IMO
Another way of looking at it is that he has now got a very good understanding of image manipulation in photoshop that he didnt have a few years ago.
I am not at all sure about this image, but will wait and see when people start posting pictures of them in the flesh.

So why would you feel a need to tell 8 million people..
Tool...[/quote]
Hi paulypaul
By "tool" I assume you mean something extremely useful?
I was only passing on information that I gleaned from this very forum. Someone actually started a thread about how he'd secured himself a print.
I'm guessing you like me haven't had a lot of sleep lately, so I understand having a short temper. But come on dude - no need to insult me - I'm just buzzed and I thought I'd try and help some other forum members who missed out.
Peace

The dignity with which you responded to my post make it hard for me to be angry with you, but bear in mind - if you are a member of worth on here, you know how this stuff works. If you are a lurker/flipper, you don't. Let's not make it easy for them, eh?

Ok man, I apologise if I've p!ssed anyone off. I probably should have thought about what i said first, but that info was already out there, and I was caught up in the buzz. I really did think I was doing other members a favour.
I may be fairly new on here but I'd still like to think I'm a member of some worth and you can see from my previous posts I do add pics of my (small) collection and try and contribute with opinions on stuff other than flippers/prices/ebay etc.
Once again sorry. Have a top xmas mate! ;D

ps; I've modified my post to remove the incriminating evidence. If you do the same maybe we could pretend it never happened?

but if he added the red shoes it would still tell the story, balance the colour and get rid of that pesky mutt at the same time!!

Thanks mate. Seeing that buy button was more of a OMG I think I'm crap my pants sort of feeling. Then I could barely fill in my card details cos my hands were shaking so much. But now I've settled down, yes, it feels fooking brilliant. So excited about getting it now. Hope it comes b4 crimbo as a lot of the other prints seem to have been posted out already. ;D

You don't need to see his identification.
These aren't the droids you're looking for.
You don't want to glue glitter on it
You want to sell it to me for cost.
Move along.
;D
