[QUOTE="Frederick, post: 4032368, member: 17825"] I think the real heart of the issue is that the police see us citizens as adversaries and common citizens as potential criminals. a police officer shouldn't be looking for reasons to throw people away or ticket them...the goal should be to deter and protect society. If you pull over someone for a minor violation, it's better to give a warning than a ticket. I wouldn't mind getting pulled over if i thought the cop was gonna treat me fair. It'd be nice to be able to trust the police and their motivations, but hell i don't even want to talk to the cops. everything you say can be used against you in a court of law, as they say. the police officer should be more like a firefighter and less like a predator seeking to abuse their authority.
