I began to walk towards the cruisers as they rolled-up and received the crazed "GET THE FU*K BACK INTO YOUR VEHICLE, NOW!" command as they exited.

No excuse for the attitude, but cops have been set up on enough occasions, sometimes killed, that they don't trust anyone.

"...cops have been set up on enough occasions, sometimes killed, that they don't trust anyone..."

We are talking about downtown suburbia, in the middle of a sunny day, with a person on the phone with dispatch giving a description of MY OWN CLOTHES and where we were all standing, near two cars who just had a fender-bender.

Police need to get a grip on this fantasy their lives are continually in danger. My life really *was* put in danger by a cop so pumped-up on anabolic steroids that he likely has a veterinarian as his primary care physician.
