Ah, COPs, hundreds of hours of footage of boring encounters (or just nothing happening at all) distilled to a 21 minute (after commercials) T.V. show. Interesting how the footage deemed entertaining enough to show tends to focus on people actually being hooked up and far less often on that of officers being polite and professional in the face of verbal abuse.
Honestly my biggest problem with the show isn't whether or not I agree with the decision made to arrest or not (something I can't often judge given how the way video tends to be cut to leave out half of each encounter), but the bad officer safety habits I see on it....
