how do cops sleep at night?

Question

Seriously, how does a cop sleep at night knowing he gives everyone extra stress in life by giving tickets???? How do you people sleep??? For real.

Whatever, i bet most who answered this question are cops, PIGS.

Oh wow, you guys are all SO right. In fact I'm going to become a cop to enslave people and enforce laws they never agreed to in the first place. Thank you for your inspiration. (pigs)

Answer 1

Keith, your an idiot, Seriously. Your also reported for calling cops "pigs", and yes, your still an idiot.

The fact that your behavior is idiotic does not allow you to generalize that the "Police" are "Pigs"; this is far outside of Y/A allowed behavior, which Validates my overt claims your an idiot, which, incidently, is not a generalization of any group but directly targets your individual behavior which is within Y/A guidlines.

Have a swell day.

Answer 2

Name calling. Really? Wow, so mature. You ask a question in the Police section and then whine because you think some of the answers may have come from cops? Are you bi-polar or something?

As for the LAME question, I sleep just fine, because I know that while some cry baby like you may be stressed, if you had continued speeding and hit/killed someone, I would feel very bad for not stopping you. And considering the shootings, stabbings, rapes, domestic violence and all the other "fun" things that go on during our shifts, I don't lose a seconds sleep over some kid who isn't happy because he got busted doing something wrong.

Deal with it, man up and either take your licks or quit breaking the law. It is that simple.

Answer 3

I'm thinking the murders and rapes would keep them up at night, not the little tickets tickets. However- It could be the people they catch like the rapist and murderers who killed the little girl down the street that would help balance out the sleep deprivation of the ticket things I guess. That's how our law enforcement sleeps.. For Real..

Oh and might I add that it's really childish of you to thumbs down those answers that you DON'T like. You must be all of 16 and you must act all of the age of 12. I am a daughter of 2 cops, I just lost a friend a few weeks ago who was an officer, who might I add was KILLED in the line of duty.. Your really a child, I hope you grow up.. Maybe one day, your eyes will open, as of right now... Children should be seen NOT HEARD.. Go away...

Answer 4

They also help keep the world safe so that's probably a comfort they take with them to bed. A better question would be How do Cops sleep at night knowing all the bad s hit after seeing some of the things they see? Tickets? Come on-big deal....quit getting tickets and you won't be stressed.

Answer 5

He probably sleeps fine in thinking that it was really you who caused your own stress by breaking the law that led him to write you that ticket. He might even sleep better than that if he believes you learned a lesson and perhaps saved your own life.

I just read your edit as well, I agree completely with the fact that you are so juvenile you don't deserve a license. And no I'm not a cop, just a loving mother concerned for the wellbeing of her family when they're on the road with jerks like you.

Answer 6

My son is a Marine MP (military police) - does that count? We've talked about how he feels about his job quite a bit. He tells me the reason he does what he does is because he likes making a difference in keeping people safe. Just this week he had the opportunity to protect a woman from her husband who nearly choked her to death. He's stopped people from speeding and other things that put the lives of others in jeopardy. There will be many other things he will do on duty, but let me tell you this - he sleeps just fine in the daytime (he works the night shift) knowing that his wife and baby daughter are safer because of the work he does. They sleep better at night knowing that as well.

If it "stresses you out" to get a speeding ticket, then start obeying the law.

Answer 7

Sorry, just feel the need to say this:

You're getting a ticket because you did something wrong. Plain and simple. If you want less stress, why not try and go the speed limit like everyone else? By you speeding, the officer is actually potentially saving peoples lives from you being reckless.

So, before you let your ignorance take control again, stop and think that maybe, just maybe, everyone else isn't at fault in this world. You are.

Answer 8

I am not a cop, but how do you sleep knowing you were speeding and threatened other peoples lives? I hate getting a ticket but I have to say if I dont speed and obey the law I have yet to get one. Keep in mind when you are speeding your chances of being seriously hurt and other people around including children are at a higher risk of being killed.

Answer 9

Cops lose sleep over the careless things people do to each other that often have disastrous consequences (like drunk driving, speeding through school zones, and erratic lane changes). If all you got was a ticket and everyone lived to learn from that mistake, the police sleep very well indeed.

Answer 10

This is the stupidest question I have ever seen on Yahoo answers. And there have been a LOT of stupid questions.. lots.

There's a reason Police Officers give Tickets. They give tickets because people break the law. And there's a reason we have laws. If you break the law, you can receive punishment.

How about - how can the cop who tazered a young polish man in Vancouver sleep at night? He was lost, didn't speak English, was throwing a bit of a fit - an the cops came into the airport and tazered him to death. TO DEATH.

Getting a ticket is such a small thing. Getting punished when you're doing nothing wrong - that is a big thing.
