I believe if you check you will see that the laws were made by the legislature of that state. This policeman didn't make them but he has sworn and oath to uphold them. It sounds to me like you have a boner for authority figures. What I got out of his post was that he would rather write a non moving violation ticket than cost someone points and money.
On another note, when I'm sitting at a light and some azzwipe with a 50 dollar car and a 1000 dollar stereo pulls up with this thing pumping hundreds of decibles, I want to get out and shoot his POS sound machine. Now who would be wrong here?
Of course they were made by the state legislature (and in the absolute worse cases, some of these laws are federal) and not by the cops. But does that make it right? Authority is fine, as long as the laws don't violates personal rights, which tinted window laws do. He swore to enforce the laws, true, but he's not going to get in trouble by ignoring BS laws. Jaywalking in NYC hjas been illegal for probably close to 100 years, but no cop enforced it until Rudy Guilianni ordered them to start, which is total BS because it's proven that EVERYONE still does.
Oh yeah, $1,000 is pretty cheap for a sterio (head unit, speakers, box, subs, face unit, amp, etc.). You should pull up next to me and you'll hear a real system.
