“small-town officer was offended by something [and couldn’t think like an adult]”

When I was in the restaurant
business, we (the entire staff)
understood the importance of
police protection and the officers
were treated with respect. Free coffee
and an occasional donut insured a quick
response whenever we had a problem.

Yeah my daughter was a barista and made the "mistake" of attempting to charge an officer for his coffee when she was new on the job. She said he talked to her like she was crap after that.
