Their hatred and gross disrespect is undoubtedly due to repeated negative "interfaces" with the police. None of which, of course, were their fault. I think you'd find that most of us that refuse to lick jackboots have had very few encounters with the police & that those we have had were minor traffic stops in which we were polite and on more than one occasion the police officer was not. I have been stopped by one very courteous officer and several who were complete asses. I have never been arrested.

“I have been stopped by one very courteous officer and several who were complete asses. I have never been arrested.” I am rarely even pulled over, but maybe once every three years I’ll get pulled over for speeding. I have found that if I smile and joke with the officers, they are almost always nice. I haven’t actually gotten a ticket since I was about 17. Usually they just give me a warning. I have never been arrested either.

I couldn't have asked for better proof of my assertion. Thanks.
