Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh
Well, some people think that authority warrants respect in every situation. I don't. I know I have a "tiny" problem with authority, but it's not necessarily a bad thing.
The more cops I get to know, the less I respect their authority. I went to school with some of our local cops, I know what they're like as people. |

I'd like to add though, that in many professions jerks don't have that much impact and one would hope that that's where they gravitate a jerk in power is not a good situation

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh
The police in my local area organise events with the kids like paint balling and bowling etc..., the kids now have respect in a funny sort of way...they will go and sit with them and chat...they seem to be more down to earth. The events don't happen every week, just one offs now and again, but its pretty cool.

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh
I can't believe I'm sick again
yesterday was not a good day I lost a snake I'd thought would come around a small lump she'd always had, suddenly grew into a large abscess earlier this week. I'd brought her to the vet on Thursday. She drained the thing and gave antibiotics. on Friday the snake seemed okay, considering. Yesterday she was dead. on top of that I feel like somebody hit me in the face with a board (sinus infection)
