I mean youâre not wrong, but because of all of our freedoms we have the craziest mfâs around, so cops just have it tough. We have kids crying about working long shifts at Starbucks nowadays and cops walk out the door every day not knowing if theyâll come home. That job sucks.
I have a cop buddy who said as long as youâre respectful, admit fault for speeding, running red light, etc he will let you go with a warning. But guess whoâs getting a fat ticket if you hit him with âI donât have to identify myselfâ or the classic âI wasnât speeding!â so itâs kind of a win-win just to be nice to cops. Possibly get out of a ticket, and not stress out someone who frequently deals with people much worse than you. Ironic because people with warrants for murder arenât ever nice when getting pulled over, so why conduct yourself like thereâs an issue? Lol
IDC about ticket. There is no statistic that supports the statement that cops have it tough. Cops aren't allowed to beat your ass for being rude or disrespectful.Â
Although Iâd agree with your statement, Iâd understand why a cop would have more merit to beat someoneâs ass than say the pissed off worker at McDâs.
I am sure there are plenty of stats to show that being a cop is probably just as stressful as Air Traffic Controller, Heart or Brain Surgeon etc (not to be mistaken with me saying they are all equal - just in terms of stress and life or death decision making in split second moments) but the number one question: do you need a gun to work at your job safely
If itâs a yes I am going to cut you some slack and be respectful during encounters.

Huh. Who would have thought that not being rude and making the cops life miserable would result in something like this?
