"Now there's a few choice words to bring an Internal Affairs complaint. No thanks... 8>) You're joking, right?"

I actually had to discuss with one of my troops why saying "We can do this the easy way or the hard way" was not appropriate during a traffic stop.

I am still not sure he gets it, but won't do it again because he doesn't want any more discussions of that type with me :)

Yikes...they figure it out eventually. A buddy of mine had a gal on a stop who was lambasting him for "Stopping me because (insert favorite ethnic background here) and driving this (insert favorite pimped out car here.)" His reply was, "No. I'm stopping you because you're fat." Didn't see him around for a few days.
