I myself am a law abiding citizen and lead a quiet life. I've taught my children and grandchildren to show respect for the flag and national anthem. We're the type of family that brings fresh baked cookies to the fire station and my kids have gone up to men and women in uniform just to thank them for their service to our country, but I never, ever, even if i'm the victim of a crime, want to have any encounter with a cop. The last time I spoke with a cop, to report a crime against my son, I was very uncomfortable with his tone and the way he treated me and I was concerned for my own safety in his presence.

There are many like us. The cops have lost us, but they don't know it yet. When they do figure it out, it will be too late.
