In my country police have to be FIT not FAT.
I absolutely agree it's VERY lazy policing, that poor, poor girl.

I know mistakes are made but most peoples reactions around police is not one of someone that is going to help you.Walking up to a policeman on the street to ask for help for something is the last thing on my list.They give off an aura of I am out to get you and aggression. I would go to a fireman their attitude is different. I was pulled over at a truck scale drving a company cube van and it turned out one rear brake/indicator was out. The attitude with this guy was agressive and I have to watch myself I pick up on people energies and it makes me agressive and it is their energy not mine. I said sorry but it is not my truck I will get it fixed so can I go now .Well no you cant your fine will be $500. Are you kidding me I cant go. It took 2hrs to get the lightbulb and get back. He was all nice with me while I put the light in. Whats with the attitude right off the bat they suppose to serve and protect not harrass and collect.The old bobbies in england they helped but sadly even that is not the same but not as bad as american police.Some how a line as been crossed like everything else and you cant get it back it is sad really.
So one police officer you met, gave you one bad experience, they all must operate that way, I like your logic.

That's telling.
Just saying doesn't make it so, no matter what the new-age self help book tells you.
I know most cops are good, so I can assume that he hasn't had very many run ins with the cops or that he is some type of criminal, who then obviously doesn't llike cops. Seem's logical to me.

Humans are inherently bad.
Cops are human, with the exception of K9 members of the force.

You state that you know " most cops are good".
Other than your 'feelings', you have anything to back that statement up?

Thousands of first hand accounts.
That is right.

You are trying to prove this statement that you made....
"Since I know that most cops are good".
