Tell us the citations you were cited for.

It sounds as if you have crossed someone.

In TX even minor traffic offenses are criminal offenses that can result in a custodial arrest. The fact that they have taken you to jail for committing these offenses, and the fact that they seem to know you and/or your roommate, tells me that the local cops have a problem with one of you. You should either mind your p's and q's very carefully, or, start saving up money for attorneys.

Perhaps you'd care to let us know what it is that has the local cops so fired up about you and/or your friend(s)?

Have you considered taking it to social media, television and radio stations, and the local newspaper?

The specific statutes on your citations. Police cannot make up laws. They are likely city statutes so we need the city also.

walking on wrong side of street and not possessing my license

When you were stopped, WERE you walking on the wrong side of the street? (If it's like out here, if there is no sidewalk, you are required to be walking against the flow of traffic ... i.e. facing the oncoming traffic).

And, when you were driving, is it true that you did NOT have a license in your possession as required by law?

If both of these are true, while you or I might think of them as nitpicky, they are against the law and in TX can result in a custodial arrest as I understand it. Whether you can prove that you are being singled out unlawfully for action because of your relationship to a friend who has run afoul of another officer is something that could prove difficult.

And, yes, you might be able to bring it up the city council, but they will almost certainly be unable to speak openly about a personnel matter or act on it during an open council meeting. About all they MIGHT do is ask for the Chief to look into the matter and maybe report back to the mayor or the city manager - not to you.
