Do police man take advantage of there authority?

Not To Serious

Yes some do

Mr. Taco

A few do. Most do not. Careful about stereotyping folks! Most cops work very hard, are honest, and do a very, very dangerous job that protects people like you and me. Don't judge the entire barrel based on a few bad apples. You wouldn't like it if people did that to you.

Not all of them, but there are some. There are good people and bad people in this world.

not all police officers are the same. they are all different just like everyone else. some are good and some are bad. unfortunalelty
some of them do take advantage of their authority, all you can do when this happens is to report them. but just because there is a few bad apples doesn't mean the bushel is bad

No. And Hooked on Phonics could work for you. Give it a try.

It depends on the type of police officers, I feel street cops take advantage, yes but my step dad is a cop of a different sort and I don't think him or his friends take advantage of anything.. you can't clump all cops into one category, there are SEVERAL levels and branches of law enforcement.

Not really. If there are any perks that they might enjoy, compare those with the cop riding around at 2 AM in a cruiser making an emergency run to a house where he's expected to aid a heart attack victim, or pull a drunk guy off the guy's wife after the guy has assaulted her and wants to do the same to the cop, or is picking up the pieces of a couple of teens who wrapped their car around a telephone pole and one's dead and the other is bleeding, or later stopping at the dead teen's house to inform the parents that their child is dead, or any of dozens of other calls that the cop is prepared to lay down his life for to protect the citizens that he's sworn to do just that for while those citizens are asleep in their nice warm beds.

I think you take advantage of the English language. These type of questions are asked here all the time, maybe you should search for one of those.

Personally, I think officers rarely "take advantage," of their authority. I work for a department and I've never seen anyone blatantly disregard the law or abuse their power. They are all proud to be officers, and take it very seriously.

they sure do and they bank on the fact that you don't know your rights.
If a police officer randomly selected me on the street to pick on and I said are you detaining me and I do not consent to this conversation or search they would reem me up and down just for knowing them.

I'm not saying they are all bad but thery are certainly trained to be bad and to take advantage of peoples ignorance

Of course they take advantage of their Authority! Every day Officers take advantage of it and use it to put Lawbreakers in Jail. I would personally not give a hoot in hell for an Officer that didn't use their Authority to their full advantage for upholding the Law. Now, tell us what the real problem is. Whats the matter? Why are you so upset over Police Officers really? Couldn't that nice smile of yours get you out of a Ticket?
