$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ColossalContrarian', ' ')I'm just saying that bad cops are cops who allow their emotions to get involved in their job.
Yep it's tough but it's part of the job.
That is a valid point. But the world is made of people, imperfect people. I wouldn't so much call it kissing a cop's ass as recognizing than that it just isn't smart to disrespect them. Bad cops are the ones who engage in criminal behavior behind the badge. They exist, unfortunately. Hell, there was a story here in San Diego of a middle school principal who was selling school equipment on the black market. When I was 18, I got busted for pot. In jail, there was a hippie who smirked. That's it, he smirked. He got the crap beaten out of him for smirking. I could see that this short, stocky little deputy had a hard on for him. The world is evil, so don't push it, for now.
