My recent contact (and rare: over decades) with--in this case a 'Highway Patrol'--a matter which wasn't about infractions and such: was Remarkable.
This was a literate, friendly, Helpful guy right outta Norman Rockwell (but sans the treacly over-drawing of that legendary schmaltz-Master.) He noted my comments (on a mundane matter at hand) and I, realizing how 2017-Un-common was this interaction.. stood around for many minutes merely engaging in non-trivial Conversation.
(Was sooo tempted to utter some facile can-o'-worms platitude like, WHY. can't. all. ?? well-Most.. of your profession Be LIke You? ... given that such utterances [Duhh..] virtually demand next a Full Monty discussion etc. etc. I settled for just enjoying a [+]-surprise amidst the daily ... you. know.)
'Twas por moi an also decent-reminder that: *Every* cop must be treated as a Human, first) ..at least until s/he reveals his/her upper-torso tattoo of Der Führer writ-Tall. {{sigh}}
Carrion..
sometimes it's Tasty
