I would also be interested in what type of training these cops have in that community. Just because someone is wearing a uniform and has a badge does not make them a good or honest person.


Ahhhh I have explained this to my children. I know this speech by heart. They are the ones in authority, you do what they say if you are ever stopped. And do it immediately. They are in command in this situation and they are stopping you or asking you questions because they represent the law. Don't ever argue with them, or run from them or God Forbid mouth off to them. Or you could be dead or in a jail cell. Right or wrong, in this situation, they are in charge.

Tal, it takes a strong person with a great deal of common sense to raise children. You want to protect them in every way and keep all bad things from happening. You have to accept that sometimes they will lie to you, to escape the heat you will give them. You have to raise them to act in a way that other people will find them to be pleasant to be around and other people will hire them someday and other people will marry them and enjoy their lives with them. It is a hard job being a parent, one that people now hand over to people they would not allow to drive their car.
