Neubob, I'll spell it out for you, as subtlety seems to escape you. I do so hope that Cav58d won't be scared off by this:
1. I think Cav58d is a raving loony.
2. I am entertained by loonies, especially when, in their raving, they happen to be on the opposite side of an issue as me. It's less wonderful when I think they're hurting my cause through association, but that's a risk in any dealing with loonies.
3. Because of 1 and 2, I look forward to seeing him in this thread. While there's a chance that he'll say 'That's just not cool' to the website, there's a, in my opinion, much greater chance that if he appears, he'll launch into a spiel about how the website describes a common courtesy, that officers are entitled to this dispensation, and suggest that the rest of us might consider might consider certain anatomically difficult maneuvers with ourselves for their lack of respect for both the badge and the hard work that gives them this special treatment.
If we're lucky, perhaps 9/11 will be mentioned.
Hope this clears things up for ye.
