I think the whole country has just gone to hell since the Colt 45 and horse ridin' days. Back then, if you pulled a gun on a cop or anyone for that matter...boom...dead. Now days, first we analyze the metal state of the guy, then look at his childhood, determine his rights, blah blah freakin' blah. The COPS (for the most part) are folks who dedicate their lives to protecting the rest of us from idiots and filling out traffic collision reports for beans. Give them some respect and don't make idiotic comments about cops in general. If you want to point out a bad one, great, slam away, but don't generalize. That shows ignorance. And no, I'm not an ass kisser, that is how I've always felt. Next time you get pulled over and given a speeding ticket, at the end, say "thank you, I appreciate what you do" and see how you are treated. Probably a lot different than if you run your mouth about a $100 ticket when the very next stop some meth head could end their life.
