I do know that I had a bad experience with a cop when I was in college yet I do not let that experience shape my views about police officers. You need to let it go Scott and move on. I haven't had much trouble with cops, and look at them as individuals much as anybody else. I do expect more from them, though, because they've made some vows and wear a uniform (-: I came up with this some years ago in a r.a.d. discussion about traffic tickets. Went like this. Tickets issuance is similar to Mendelian genetics, where dominance is represented by assholeness, regression by politeness. polite driver + polite cop = probably no ticket asshole driver + polite cop = ticket polite driver + asshole cop = ticket asshole driver + asshole cop = ticket, maybe jail Simplistic, but usually true in my experience, which is I'm always polite, the cops are nearly always polite, and I hardly ever get a ticket. Might be lucky too, which is never to be underestimated. --Vic ps..The wheelchair cop should be fired. The skateboard cop should be suspended a couple weeks and undergo "counseling." -- John H |
