If there was a TPO or CPO against you, there would be no doubts about it whatsoever, you would have been served and the officer delivering the protection order would explain that the items checked apply to you and the ones that are not checked do not apply to you

Oddly, there are some really good answers here.  I usually have to wade through all the donut cracks and Patriot Act garbage to see anything worth reading.\n\nHowever, the question leaves something to be desired.\n\nYou've said you hate to generalize, but that's exactly what you done, and you've done it on a grand scale.  On what do you base your hypothesis that cops get annoyed when people exercise their rights?  Talking about the Los Angeles Police Department alone, there's right around 10,000 cops there.  Your question makes it sound like you've witnessed an awful lot of them get annoyed when people exercise their rights...and that's just Los Angeles.  I'm assuming you don't know, and haven't watched, even 0.01% of the law enforcement officers in this country do their jobs and yet your question assumes cops get annoyed when people exercise their rights, that "almost all" law enforcement officers want people to know as little as possible about their rights, and that "every" time people exercise their rights, the police are "always" there ready to violate them.\n\nSounds to me like you have an agenda.\n\nHaving said that, I'm sure some cops do get annoyed, that they do it for the reasons others have mentioned here, and probably for other reasons as well.  Some cops are jerks...and so are some lawyers, some dentists, some plumbers, some senators and some housewives.  As a group, though, we take an awful lot of precautions in the hiring practices for people who are given the authority they are...something few other career fields do.  \n\nPersonally, I am one of the exceptions you say "may" exist.  I dealt with a 16 year old kid recently who adamantly refused to allow me to search his car.  I was very impressed with the way he communicated his wishes to me and his exercise of his right to be free from unreasonable search - and I told him so.  Then I searched his car, because it reeked of marijuana (which, as it turned out, is because marijuana was in it).  And no, he didn't get a ticket...the weed was destroyed, I thanked him for his time, and he drove away somewhat surprised.  I know I am not alone in my profession when it comes to my respect for people exercising their rights.\n\nAnd having said that, I have two last comments:\n\nI have been annoyed by people who *thought* they were exercising their rights.  People who stand there and demand to have a lawyer before they decide which chemical test to take (no such right in California), people who demand to see a search warrant that allows me to search a vehicle (don't need one, in 99% of cases), people who think they know the laws of arrest ("you can't arrest me, you didn't see me do it") when very often we don't have to actually witness a crime to make an arrest.  I don't mind people asking, and I will bend over backwards to answer and educate them, but this holier-than-thou, I'll-have-your-badge, I-know-the-law-better-than-you, and of course, I-know-my-rights-and-you-can't-do-that attitude does get annoying after a while.  \n\nI don't make enough money to go around violating someone's rights because I couldn't afford the punishment if I did...I don't know a single cop who does.  I know there are certainly some idiots out there who have, but if you consider the total number of police officers in this country, and the relative scarcity of news related to this topic, I hope you'll see that perhaps you aren't giving the profession a fair shake.  Sure...when we screw up we do it BIG...but we really don't do it as often as you're making it sound.  \n\nSorry for the length...it's a subject I could talk about for quite a while.

Filing a complaint in a small town is a very risky practice, in a large city you will not have a problem with the other officers but in a small town you will be known by everyone and the officers friends will be out to get you. I have done this, and then, when the harrasment started went through the Attorney generals office and had the officer reprimanded.

No cop takes his job entirely seriously because of the stress involved. While on duty they will not make fun of another cop. However, they often laugh at eachother openly. Good cops however never truly criticize eachothers work. There is a difference in poking fun to lighten the air and criticism.

The police department.  They have a tone of them.

This sounds very social studies, and I'm sorry I saw this question late. Well, I think that the government probably enforced some laws and stepped up measures to capture the pirates so the piracy problem wasn't so bad, and then they became a prosperous port. OR ELSE, they'd have negotiated with the pirates, which isn't something that the Singapore Government would do anyway, so I believe it is the former reason. :)

When a persons been arrested he is subject to search incident to that arrest. The search requires no warrant. Who did he ask for a lawyer? It's not the policeman's responsibility to provide the lawyer it's the court that does that. As far as having "grounds" he was under arrest, the officer doesn't need grounds! The search is justified because he is arrested. Whether anything was found has no bearing on whether or not the search was justified. This is the law, the Supreme Court has upheld it. We appreciate the service to our country but that has nothing do do with the crime he was arrested for.\nFurthermore since this person was arrested for filing a false report "lying" how much of his story should we actually believe?

The issue of charter change just begun when the HELLO GARCI scandal occures.And is intended to shift the interest of the people,to stop the investigation.That is why some officers stand being a witness is dismis from their position.It is the intelligent mind of the CROCODILE they have been protecting.\n\nThere's nothing wrong with the system,It's the people in there.\n"It:s better to a city to run by a good man than a good law."

I don't really think that the police do not do enough by choice.  I think it is because the liberals are so concerned with the rights of the criminals, the police are seriously bogged down in rules and regulations, while the criminals just do whatever they want to.  They get accused of "harassing" "innocent" people "just because they are hanging with known criminals". Well, news flash - if you know someone is a criminal, you know they have hurt innocent people, and you are hanging with them and acting like it's cool with you, you are NOT innocent.  You are aiding the criminal.  Any time there is a car chase, the police, not the criminals, are blamed by the ignorant liberals who do not comprehend that the cops were doing their job chasing the criminal, and that the criminal was the one causing the danger by fleeing.

Yes, and they are.  If the department is large enough, it is called Internal Affairs.  It is not unreasonable to have checks and balances in any public service sector.  The problem is, the general public is not required or even allowed to know all of the facts.  Much of the information is confidential for reasons of public safety.  Such being the case, many people will think the worst about one situation or another that was not resolved the way they believe it should have been resolved.  Then you have the small minded people who think all police are bad.  These are the people I would like to see even TRY to survive in a lawless society.  They wouldn't last a week before they were either dead or on the street without a penny to their name.  \n\nBefore some of the people who believe all police are bad get too wrapped up in their bad mouthing, they should be willing to answer some questions like "Why were YOU not accepted as a police officer?"  Even better, "Why are you unwilling to pin that shield on and do what you CLAIM is not being done?"  Every time I have asked those questions, you'd be amazed at the number of "it's not my job" answers I get.

Yes they do here. Their nice, but they don't do their job. I can just call my brother and friends that live up the street, they would get here faster than the cops and do what needs to be done to clear up the problem.

Learn to appreciate - Singaporeans hardly praise people or things which are staisfactory. You hear more complaints than anything else. When asked about what are the things they don't like since they did not give any comment/ they gave a neutral comment, they also can't tell you what's wrong.\n\nMannerism - They are rough and impatient, especially when you see them queuing up for things. Always want to be the first, never the last. Queuing up for "Hello Kitty" is a very good example, they even fought over it.\n\nIdeas - I've heard more on copying or modifying people's stuff and report than coming up with their own one.

You need to discuss the issue that police forces seem to be trying to improve their public image - what people think of them, that they are trying to improve how they interact and get along with the public, and that some people or factors may be making this difficult.  There is an effort to make police forces more "people friendly".\n\nI hope this helps a little.
