I know someone who refers to convenience stores as the "Stop and Rob".
I think that name also applies equally well to cops on "traffic patrol". It's all they do- they "stop" and "rob" travelers.
Don't fool yourself into believing that a traffic stop is anything other than an armed robbery. You might like the results, but when you see the local "Stop & Rob" in action, you are witnessing a violation of fundamental human rights.
So, support your local individual Stop & Rob if it makes you happy, but don't pretend he's something other than what he is.

I was a victim of Stop & Rob just recently. All the governments look at traffic stops as a cash cow.
ReplyDeleteWhen I worked in a gas station, not much of a store, I spent time cleaning some swords that I'd bought.
ReplyDeleteNo one robbed me.
