Also, stop calling them cops
This "cop" word has this cool power connotation
Call them police officer, that is what they are
Subjective. I don't find the word cop all that cool, and nowadays it gives me a negative impression. Police Officer sounds just like a formal title, like Representative, Principal, Judge, etc.
Yeah, "cop" is typically used as a pejorative
Police Officer gives them an air of professionalism they don't deserve in most cases. Nobody says 'cops' who are also happy to see them.
