One other thing I have noticed lately is that there seems to be a “the police are beyond reproach” attitude among many posters here.

The police are nothing more (or less) than any of us here. They are just people.

Speed limits and their enforcing laws are more often than not set with revenue generation in mind.

By definition, speed LIMITS assume that you and I are incompetent, homicidal maniacs behind the wheel of our automobiles, incapable of rational and intelligent appraisal of ANY and ALL rational thought once we enjoin the use of the roads WE pay for through our taxes.

The politicians, and of course special interest groups (MADD, anyone[over85% of MADD’s incoming donations are spent in administration]?) are so caught up in CONTROLLING the populace, that they have forgotten the very reason the USA was established!

Benjamin Franklin once said: (paraphrased) “Those who would trade freedom for security deserve, and will receive, NEITHER.
