So I offered to help look for the poor lost girl I was driving around and spotted a police SUV in a school parking lot so I drove over to where he was parked....alone in the middle of a summer afternoon and he was just plain outright rude. He was the village canine officer so I thought he would have some compassion instead he scolded me for bothering him. Not only that but he intentionally let his dog bark wildly at me and chewed me out for approaching him with the dog. First off, growing up my best friend's dad was an canine officer so I had been around police dogs for a very long time. When I was in my early 20's this same girl dated another canine office. So just a little experience and know he gave the dog the command to behave that way. Total crap...IMO. He was also indifferent to the situation and I drove away feeling horrible. What happened to the police acting kind or compassionate? It just lead me to think how this cop would have treated others with his authority. I was just a woman looking for a rescue dog that was spotted in that general area.

This entire subject really gets me going. There is such a lack of respect on so many levels and it's just broad sweeping. There is no respect for even our President. I believe that whoever is elected for an office especially the President of the United Stated there should be respect offered. Facebook makes me crazy with the outrageous images of the President and First Lady that I see posted and passed around. Why is this considered acceptable? It just trickles down from there. The adults can't act correctly so why should the children behave any better? SMH......
