Call your cable provider and start cursing at them and see if they accept it. How about your wife, would she put up with it in her job? You're a big constitutionalist, go into a court room and demand your 1st amendment right use profanity at the judge, you would be taking out in handcuffs. I talk to LE on regular basis, it's becoming worse every day.

Couple things to remember: respect is earned and it is a two way street. As I recall each and every cop car I see states somewhere “to serve and protect”, that means everyone. My wife and I have too many family members that are LE including herself who wore a badge for 15 years. She is appalled by the actions of some of these officers. Maybe a little internal policing would be helpful.
