In all fairness to the LEOs, I think you are generalizing a bit; if that has been your experience though, you would think that's how all PD act. Yeah, some cops have that attitude, but the majority IMO don't, and many put up that wall and defense mechanism because a lot of people don't grant them that respect; people give cops a bad time when we are the ones that screw up and break the law. But again, there are bad apples on both sides...
Im sure they act different in other areas around the city and yes I met a few really good officers over the years . But it seems as the good ones are far and few between and getting to be more of a rarity every day . Are the streets that bad that the department cant find folks that not only do the job but are nice to the residents ? I know none of the cops live in 5 points but i assure you that its not that bad an area and we are not criminals .

yeah i know my grammar stinks ! What can I say after 14 inner city schools schools I'm glad I can at least read .I grew up with ketchup as a vegetable in school lunch (got to love Regan)
