I can't remember the last time I ever called a cop a pig but IMO that is a slippery slope. We can make threads insulting women drivers, we can call lawyers scum, we can call groups rednecks or hicks or make fun of the way certain ethnic groups drive but we can't call cops pigs?

If in fact we can't call cops pigs, are there any other professions that we are outlawed from insulting on CP?
I wondered about that, too. Hopefully he was banned for trolling in general, because I'd hate to see the number of people that deserve to be banned based on the Asian stereotype jokes, the names lawyers get called here (or Rogers employees, for that matter), or the names thrown around concerning entire religious sects in religious threads, etc.
