This is really for a different thread, but training, or lack there of, is a serious issue with PD's around the country. Not only training, but lack of knowledge on the very law that they are sworn to uphold. And lastly, they usually are NOT held properly accountable for their own actions, until farther steps are taken.
BTW, I have a couple of childhood friends that are currently cops, and one of my closest family friends is Lieutenant of one of the PD's. I've had nothing but great interactions with police, even when I was the one who clearly screwed up. Treat them with respect, and thank them for their duty whenever you get the chance.
