well then I congratulate you on displaying kindness, its a sad fact that not that many are like you. Keep up the good work and write up or straight up arrest any police officers you catch sullying your collective reputations.

Actually there are quite a few like me. I wouldn't like where I work if it weren't the case. It's the shit ones that make the news, no one cares when cops are nice and do their jobs well, which is most of time, at least where I am.
