ironically, the law needs cops that can not think for themselves (for the most part).

If more cops had even half a soul, they'd be too lenient for offenses that they're supposed to crack down on. Working order must be maintained.

When a cop let's you go with a warning, that warning should be made official and documented with your signature verifying you received and understood the warning.

if the cops were more open minded and liberal, then how would they be able to enforce the laws that they're sworn to uphold? Either a law is broken or followed, and for a justice system to work right it must be viewed as "black and white" unless otherwise a court comes into play to more clearly define what ultimately must be followed or what stuff they can let slide on account of their biased personal feelings towards good citizens.

I'd never tell a cop about anything illegal I do, no matter how cool they are. They're trained to be mindless drones, and should be treated with the proper respect that a mindless drone deserves (which means you have to always be nice and cooperative, or else!). Never let your guard down and think for one second that they are human beings just like the rest of us: they voluntarily enforce oppressive laws upon us. Would you really trust a person like that with knowledge of your illegal habits? I wouldn't.

Their personal feelings do NOT supercede the law. remember that.
