And the cops wonder why people are so hostile to them.

I will always relish the look of disgust and hate .When I presented the Police armorer .With a court order to return 7 pre- 64 Winchester rifles ,to me.3 were so old they had no serial #'s. You know he had a place in his personal vault ,for those rifles. Behind enemy lines. In Unconstitutional, collectivist ,Ct. We will not comply,nor stand down.AAA/0.11B20.

What would you do to anyone else, that tried to steal your property? Think about it.

@Anonymous: "What would you do to anyone else, that tried to steal your property? Think about it."

Think about the fact that they may just want you to do something. Resisting almost always equals a good shoot. So they get your stuff anyway, get to off someone in the process, and - worst case scenario - they get a paid vacation after the fact.

It doesn't mean don't resist, but it does mean consider the full ramifications.

These badged thieves need to suffer direct, negative consequences for this behavior. Not necessarily financial.
