*** Quoting Bob Rudolph to Glenn Vermette ***
BR>    Cops are not programmed to take crap from anyone - at least
BR> not those that
BR> are still alive.  My father told me that politeness and
BR> cooperation go a long
BR> way to defusing an ugly situation, and I've never fund him to be
BR> wrong in that
BR> regard. Giving a cop a hard time might make you look like a
BR> hotshot in your
BR> ill-informed buddies' eyes, but it costs nothing at all NOT to do
BR> that, and it
BR> earns plenty - including consideration the next time you
BR> encounter that cop.
BR>
BR>    Being cool just isn't a survival trait sometimes - but
BR> politeness and
BR> cooperativeness always goes a long way.
BR>
Amen to to that!!!
