woosa, everyone. woosa.
Admittedly there are some cops who love to be douchebags but they are definitely a minority. It sucks that the dicks give the good cops a bad name.
Cops perform an important service, but unfortunately they're also ultimately subject to the will and agenda of jackass politicians. They may not be able to change the law, but when they don't agree with it they can conveniently look the other way. They deserve respect. They do a job that a lot of people don't have the balls to do.
If you want someone to blame, blame the idiots who write these laws meant to "protect us from ourselves".
