Are you one of those guys who hates the cops until you need one? Do you also forget that cops are people, too?

How backwards. Parent poster is talking about treating cops closer to how regular people are being treated.

If you're really committed to fairness, you'll take away the off-duty/unofficial privileges and immunities that they have which are not shared with "people too."

I used to hate the cops until I needed one, and then they were horrible to me and didn't solve my problem and actually started a reverse investigation against me for the thing I reported someone else doing, so now I hate the cops even when I need one.
