trekz 7 Posted October 17, 2006 While these sound funny on the surface, when you read them over, don't you sense police who are overstressed, fed up, and well aware of the power that they hold over the ordinary citizen? Further if you are a minority and being told these "jokes" by a policeman of a different race, would they really be that funny, or would they seem like harrassment or bias?

Kor37 9 Posted October 17, 2006 I can speak from experience when I say that many people whose jobs involve a lot of stress combat this with humor. The humor is sort of a barrier between yourself and the horror around you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
