The bandwagon's out in force, too...
Stories like this are far more common than you hear about, as a lot go completely under the radar.
Yeah, and the stories where cops save people's lives, which happen
every single day don't make the news at all. So screw the 99% of cops out there who do things like drive around in the worst weather to help people, because when there's nothing tragic happening they have the
audacity to ticket you when you were speeding.
Screw the 99% of cops that drive around when there's a power outage and make sure people aren't looting your house, or your business. Screw those guys for keeping street racers from doing 75 in a 30 - I mean hell, what could go wrong with that.
Nevermind
they get killed while doing their job. It's probably their fault anyway.
You know, cut those guys some fucking slack - treat them like they're human and you might be surprised to see they treat you with the same respect you give them. Maybe you'll get a bad one and he'll be a prick - we know they're out there. I can tell you though, if you approach a cop with a chip on your shoulder, he'll treat you like you're a possible threat.
