I have dealings with Police that still stick out in my mind.

First was in Budapest. I was a young 22 yrd old soldier, piss drunk walking down the middle of one of the main blvd's that connect Buda to Pest at 3:30 in the morning. A cop pulled up and out jumped to of the largest cops I have ever seen. Me and my mate were standing still expecting to get crapped on. Instead the larger of the two man mountains asks us where we are going. I explained we were looking for a specific club (can't recall the name). He said he knew where it was and chucked us in the car and pulled up infront of the club. He let us out and we walked right in past the line up.

The second is when I was a first time dad. I was speeding home, trying to work on my phone between calls from my wife. I was zipping in and out of traffic. When I got near my turn off the vehicle behind my lit up it's lights. I pulled over and the cop came up to my passengerside window. He listed of my infactions (driving using cell was consider ok at the time) speeding, not signaling lane change and dangerous driving. I told him that I had a newborn and a crying wife (she had some postpartum issues). He gave me a signal without a lane change. He said, that he knew my pain and that it would get better, and I should focus on driving as I had a kid now. Stand up guy, cuz I am sure he could have nailed me.


People forget that the majority of police are great individuals. The instances of police being #######s is far out weight by the instances of them be great, sadly the ####### instances are only reported.
