Okay, you don’t see the difference between your cliche and my inference.
Your own “inside” experience is from over a generation ago.
And finally, the only first-hand experience you have of law enforcement since then is of the “traffic control” variety where you don’t even dispute the violation of law.
Why did you reply to my post?
You first claimed you "don't think the police 'wish to mess' with ANYBODY."
You then went on to demonstrate that's exactly what you think.
papertyger: "Why did you reply to my post?"
Because you are reporting, or fantasizing, police malfeasance that I have no experience of and would never presume absent strong evidence.
Sure, nobody imagines police are 100% perfect 100% of the time, but like President Trump, I think police have gotten a very bad rap in recent years, resulting in more crime, even against police themselves.
I think they need and deserve better public support, especially from our elected leaders.
I take it you disagree?
