Pantyfanatic---Your statement of"Treat an asshole,like an asshole"reminds me of something that my father told me once.
When I was a young kid,my father was a Conn. State Cop.He quit
when I was a baby,so you can figure the years.I'm 58 now!At the
time,Conn.,had cardboard,tri-fold,operators licenses.If you had,
motor vehicle,violations,the court would enter them on the back.
These were not the days of the frivilous lawsuit,so Cops had more
leeway.If my father stopped a motorist,who was speeding,and didn't have multiple violations,and was polite,he let him go.No
written warning,or anything.If he stopped a person doing 37 in a
35 zone,and he gave him a bunch of crap,he had a ticket.My father said"If he wants to act like an asshole,he gets treated like
one!"He always told me,to be polite to cops,judges,etc.He said,
that even if they were wrong,a little respect goes a long way.
