    I believe that people don't dislike police because of a bad day here and there. People don't always see the police as help but as authority taking away there fun. People fear getting caught and it makes them not do the illegal deed. This fear is what causes the dislike or rudeness towards the police. People dont always look deeper into things than what is directly affecting them..this selfishness causes people to get angry when theres a roadblock or when they get pulled over. The cop(s) was just doing his/her job to protect you and others. Plus with the added stereotypes and disrespect on TV, cops have a lot to over come. 100 years ago people praised the sheriff unless you were a crook..now everyone complains if they get a parking ticket, times are a changing and hopefully the police keep doing what there doing. Also my opinion is not one of a cop or cop family, Im 19 and frequently speed and underage drink but if I get caught I understand the consequences because i respect the police and the system and that it keeps us safe from anarchy.The respect is whats missing today from people. Don't know if this actully answered your question :)

    Police are not on the defensive. We treat everyone the same until given a reason not to. If you want to be treated differently than your neighbor, act out and you will.

    Police are trained to deal with rude people. One of the more popular classes for police is "Verbal Judo". Likewise police are human too and have bad days so take that into consideration when dealing with them.

    Black women human beings do no longer could desire to look sturdy on condition that they have got White in them, what an ignorant and jackass situation to assert. Black women human beings have a lot of haters, jealousy i think of this is, human beings concentration alot of interest on Black women human beings for no reason. i be responsive to a lot of adult men that LOVE Black women human beings and a lot of those that Love Asian adult men, the media would not be responsive to jackshit approximately what human beings discover eye-catching. so as to sum up my answer no this is not actual , if so tell all the adult men that hit on me that they could desire to no longer because of the fact i'm no longer suitable.

    Roadblocks,Random Traffic stops are prime examples of why people are annoyed with police agencies. They concoct these new guidelines to make their jobs easier and ours more difficult.

    Say you work at night and they suddenly decide to pull that random traffic stop crap. You're sitting there 20 mins or longer in some cases you show up late for work boom you're fired.

    The police use more and more nazi tactics each year and theres nothing we can do about it.
