The cops ones are very believable. There are many cops out there with the arrogance necessary to say those things, and honestly, they won't get in any trouble for saying it.

The cops ones are probably true. It takes a certain amount of arrogance to do that job and it tends to attract those with an overabundance of it.

I'm sorry you feel that way about cops, but my father is a cop and he is one of the least arrogant men I know. Some are like that, but there are a lot that aren't. He's a cop because he enjoys helping people and wants to give back to the community.

I didn't mean arrogance in a bad way at all. Confidence would have been a better word actually. I'm marry a cop and actually haven't dated nothing but cops and wannabe cops. Some are arrogant and do want to give back and some are confident people who want to do something meaningful in their lives. Of course some are just arrogant prats but you get that in every job.

The truth hurts. Some people can't take negative criticism.

The truth is that most cops are good people who just want to help the world.

The negative stereotype towards cops is unfortunate, but nevertheless, always seems to be true. I've come across a few cops that exceeded my expectations greatly, one of them being my neighbor and another living down the street.

I never meant to say that they all do, but there is a vast percentage of them that like to think enforcing the law means they are better than you.

It's a forwarded chain e-mail, so I'd bet it's a myth.
I'll check Snopes to see if any of it is accurate.

As for the opinions about teachers "comments" about students...
It would require more than a reprimand if those responses were actually issued to students and/or their parents.
Not only are the comments highly unprofessional and unethical as part of an "official" report, they are injurious, callous and ignorant.

There's a distinct difference between constructive criticism and criticisms that promote humiliation.
