I'm a Police Officer, among other things. I'm a community member, a taxpayer, a person.
Some people may say I'm an idiot, a sign of oppression, or a pig.
Others might say I'm a life-saver, a hero or a compassionate public servant.
Say what you think, call me what you like, I'm doing my job, having fun doing it, and hopefully helping people along the way.
FYI, when a traffic signal is out or malfunctioning, the intersection is to be treated as an all-way stop. Its not supposed to be a free-for-all. Why does everyone forget this?
Yeesh, I was amazed how many people on Paoli Pike during the recent power failure did not know this. They seemed to think no traffic lights meant, "wee, it's a new freeway, we don't have to stop at no stinkin' intersections!" Some #^&$@ behind me laid on the horn when I stopped (while yammering on her cellphone, of course).
Seriously! People should at least have the decency to dress up in ragged Mad Max fur and leather if they're gonna blow through a broken stoplight.
