I forgot bout this thread. lol I sent the check. Must have got lost in the mail. 
And I kinda understood. The biggest problem I had though was that he didn't take his frustration out on a drunk, disorderly, or whatever, but he decided to yell at one of the only people NOT drinking. Me and both the kids had never been to a Mardi Gras parade. My son wanted a moonpie that had been thrown. He didn't catch it (he was only 4) and so he tried to get it. I wasn't exactly professional either after he yelled at Bonnie. I was a TOTAL dick. I embarrased him in front of everyone and the whole damn parade stopped and it took the 'assistance' of other officers to get me to comply. I was PISSED. But I did get the last word. Only took 4 months. 
Agreed.
BUT. If they have one of those bad days, then I'll respond accordingly. I'm ALWAYS polite and respectful to LEOs. Until they are not to me. Even when I can tell they are in a bad mood, or are just not nice in general, as long as they just deal with me respectfuly and professionaly, I go tno problem. VERY, VERY, VERY few of them are just plain A-Holes all the time. Yet I suspect ALL of them have their bad days. Most can just supress the bad days and just come off as no personalities. Which is a win imo.
I can't remember which month it was. Might have been 1999 instead of 98. But I've hated everything Mardi Gras ever since.

NOT ME DID IT!!!
Nah, PQ. I got where you are coming from its easy for us to Monday morning QB it now and say OH, well you should have gotten his name and filed a complaint. Its the moment and split second reactions. Know all about it. Everyday we have to make'em and then some group of staff officers gets months to analyze it and tell us we did this or that wrong----yeah ok thanks. --off the soapbox again
. The officer was messin' with the 2 most important things in your life. Not too hard to come off your "square" when that happens especially when the conduct was not appropriate. BUT DAMN the WHOLE PARADE!!!
One of the fellas said it this morning "The three things that will get you in the most trouble in this job
your mouth, your driving, and your reports (or lack of doing one)
