The cops never know what they're facing when they ask for a driver's license. In my own town the following rather amusing incident occurred:

A small-business owner complained that the patrons of a bar in the same plaza were taking up all his parking places. The cops attempted to give a ticket to one of the bar patrons who kept telling them that they couldn't ticket him because HE WAS DRIVING A CADILLAC. "Everybody knows a cadillac owner never gets a ticket."

The cop kept politely requesting to see his driver's license. The caddy owner made a sudden, threatening move toward the cop. WHAM! He was on his stomach on the ground with the cop's foot on his back. Cops know karate.

The driver got the ticket. The cop protected himself from a possible life-threatening perp move. What's the big deal?

Perhaps the guy on the ground in the picture finally surrendered his license and was let go. The cops had more important things to do right then.

Bet that guy won't pull that again! The police have every right to defend themselves and us. Too many of them are intimidated right now by the liberals who scream police brutality if a cop looks at them funny! That is not good for the cops, or the public as it may keep them from saving lives.
