    I do think this particular man was a heartless jerk and deserves more than just being shuffled to a desk job.
    Actually, I wish my BIL was an Ex along with my sister, who is a pompous AH herself.

    There are stupid, heartless people in all lines of work.

    We had two SWAT cops who 'cowboyed' a building here in lost angeles. They went in without waiting for a plan or a clue. They both got shot and one was killed.

    They did the 'hero' thing for him for a few months and never really came out and said that what he and his partner did was really dumb and not within the guidelines set up by the dept. The media didn't bother to report this and they carried on with the hero story.

    It was a bad situation made worse by mistakes and not following the rules.

    In many cases cops look for 'justice by cop' when some bad luck befalls them.


    Another case that made the news was a cop who was killed by a wrong way driver on the 210 freeway. They closed the freeway for something like 6 hours to investigate the accident-all this happened during rush hour. Here in lost angeles we have enough BS traffic, they will clear a wreck in minutes to keep the flow going. If something happens to any PO, you can bet that time will stop and the investigation will turn heaven and earth to find out what happened.

    We regular po' folk jus doan get none of tha justice!

    I actually must say that in the process of going through a divorce, my BIL was the kindest of my ex's family and was the one person that didn't treat me like I had vaporized into thin air suddenly. That is OT but your comment made me think about it.

    I do agree that jobs of authority can attract ruthless people sometimes. And sometimes I just think "regular" people get in them and then get jaded by all they have to deal with. I'm glad to have experienced dealing with those who were respectful and polite in the past.

    Wow, I didn't read all of these posts. But that cop is not being right. Telling him to shut his mouth. Why can't he just let them go visit the dying woman and THEN give him the stupid ticket? I mean, yes he disobeyed the traffic laws, but come on!!!

    I have heard of cases where the cop pulls someone over in a similar situation and they gave them a police escort to the hospital. I think it was a woman about to give birth or something like that. So of course there are good cops out there.

    In the video the woman that comes to the car says it's his father and he says he's dying. So that's a little weird. When Ryan said it was his mother-in-law. And even after he's told that he still doesn't let him go into the hospital!! The family probably just had a nurse come out and tell the cop that.

    OMG!!! At the end of the video (after he was done writing the ticket) he said - if you would have just told me what was going on we could have avoided this. I probably would have let you go.
    Um....I believe he was told SEVERAL times what was going on. I mean, seriously!!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
