If you are a LEO, get a new job before you end up the "whacko on the rooftop".

Your behavior seems very unusual.

It's not the Job that sucks, it's the idiots we have to deal with. Some with guns, some with big mouths. But either way, we still deal with them.

Yeah, and you're not acting like an idiot?

Please explain to me how you're not... I'd really like to know.

Look at it this way for a second Rich. When you find your perfect world you will be out of a job! As there will be no "idiots" to deal with.
Who shall protect their rights?? Not me, I am too busy trying to protect my own.

Seriously dude, all this anger you're channeling up could be released on the next subject you encounter.

You are angry aren't you?

It's ok to be angry.  I guess this is your way of letting it out.  Better here than on the street.

My way would be to call credit card companies and scream at them.  I also used to take my dog for walks on the beach and watch her chase the other dogs.  

We are here to help.  

Edited for apostrophe...

You guys are messing it all up.

I'm trying to counsel the fella.

He doesnt need counseling, he needs to get "jacked up" by an leo while he is on vacation away from his home turf. This way he will know what all the "idiots" feel like when it happens to them!

Well, I sure know what it feels like to be powerless.  Say one more thing and the sgt would have thrown me in jail.  He even made mention of that.

Even if I would have said, "what's the charge?", that would have been it.

Only in the courtroom could say what I wanted to the female ticketing officer without fear of retribution.  The sgt wasn't there because he didn't offer me a ticket.  Ticket to jail perhaps, but not a traffic violation.

Well said! LMAO even though it is not really funny, but rather frightening.

I hope he's not the guy you encountered.  If that's the case, he was telling the truth about sometimes wanting to be that "rooftop guy".

Tuff shit,

Miners die when caves collapse, pilots die in plane crashes.  Cops are paid to do their job.  If it is so god damn dangerous, they need to do something else.  These poor f-kers died stupid.  Now quite crying and show some restraint.  Get a new job candy ass.
