The cops are not our friends...

You don't need cop dirt. They don't protect and serve. Sometimes they might and other times they will lock you up for stealing their dirt.

It was a good instinct, but I don't think that cops are really our friends.

If you insist, just do it and say you need dirt for your pet worm.. Do not tell them the truth.

I figured they would think me crazy. Crazy enough to arrest or warn is the question.

Some cops are *******s I know. But in general, they are a necessary component of our society. One that needs their power kept in check, yes, but one that I would not want to live without. So much chaos would ensue without them. Too many people victimizing others. It is good to have an authority to put their foot down. When it is done in the right way for the right reasons.


The shootings and corruption and authoritarian behavior are abhorrent. But if you look you'll find stories of police that are touching and courageous and righteous.

In my own personal experience, I've had cops harass me and my friend's family a little because I was standing outside Juvenile court by myself drinking a cop of coffee, waiting for them to come outside. (and maybe in their experience this seemed justified. It's not the best example, just from my end, I remember minding my own business, and suddenly they're coming up and giving me attitude and asking me if my friend's mom's boyfriend had ever molested me, and if they can search his van, and I'm 15 and drinking coffee, and all this nonsense for seemingly no reason.)

But on a more positive note, when my father was arrested and sent to jail, it was a good hour or so away from where he lived. He was homeless, and when they released him, they forgot his bag. They told him he'd have to come get it or lose it. A cop from his hometown took his own personal time to drive off and go get my dad's bag.


I find this invasive personally, but another cop I knew of used his off time to come talk to me because of a bloody razor in my friends back pack that they had found at a train station. He was certainly concerned for her well being, regardless of whether or not he had any right to interfere. (strictly for the point that the police are not our friends)


I've read stories of cops who have done really touching things, and generally are the good guys, I just don't remember them fully now. But our system needs to do more to punish cops who are out of line, and add checks like cameras to watch them so they have reason to keep themselves in check.

Thank you. I'm vegan, so eggshells personally won't work for me. But I know there are a million other things I can use. Hell, almost every herb/spice in my spice cabinet can be used for protection, and I've personally bought other flowers and such that lend themselves to protection too.

I think part of it is this more is better mentality, combined with my desperation to drive these things away.

I honestly can't say how much extra oomph this would add to my subconscious, but to be fair, at this point I need to focus a lot more on my mentality and actual energy workings to clear the things out.

And I know the magic is supposed to use that anyway, it's just damn near impossible for me to relax and visualize, so I don't get into the heavy energy of it all.

But what I mean is I need to sit down and spend time literally pulling and pushing them out. Force them out and fill the gaps. Rather than trying to depend on burning herbs and oils and other such things to do it for me. (still a good supplement though lol)

But again, thank you, and blessed be.

Spirits are like cops....Some are really helpful and others aren't...

Just because they are wearing a uniform that says "I am here to protect and serve" doesn't mean they are.

I am not a cop hater, but as a rule they have the authority to make judgments that may be not in your best interest.

The cop dirt is not good magic in my opinion because the cops are not our friends. That phrase keeps popping up. I am not insisting on it, but those words are insisting on being written.

The idea is good. The idea of protection. Who do you pay for protection? How do you pay for protection?

I pay for protection. I do that by making a sacrifice. That requires giving something away, not taking something.

Honestly, if I wanted to 'pay off the cops' I would give them something. Donate to the police fund, or leave a 5 dollar bill somewhere on the property.
