I wish the Bush shoe-thrower video had been more like this one. And I wish everyone here could be blessed with an angelic 15 year old daughter like the sweetheart in the clip. I grew up in a society where teen agers didn't show such disrespectfull contempt for adults...especially for cops. And if I ever spoke to my mother in such a manner in front of my father, I feared he might decide to make me a very late term abortion.

At 15 I stood a foot taller then my mother but if I addressed an adult in the manner this teenager addresses this cop then the as* kicking mom would have given me would have made this incident look mild.Teenagers used to never even think of testing a cop like that.

And at one time cops used to be worthy of respect.

Times have changed.

Thanks for that post. At least a few are left who can understand. I don't like the incident occurring, but we have to return to a value system and respect for authority because God put authority there...even Obama (oooh, that hurt).
