Commentary with respect to all 4 of these and in general:
Situation might exist of a willingness to help stranded motorists, a scenario where there is foot and car traffic, and a trap is set with criminal minded people that it was not clear what it was that the officer might be dealing with emerges and assaults; extra caution in stranded motorist scenes seems is going to be the new norm that everyone can anticipate
Bullying with legal instrumentsNot wishing to speak of the subject, however, there are those in authoritative positions that appear to be bullying in certain areas of the U.S. currently with legal instruments those that are not wholeheartedly conceding to agree to participating in facilitating 'gay marriage' licenses.
There are many laws, rules, and regulations, on state, federal and local levels, that give opportunities that preclude cruel and unusual punishment, freedom of religion, speech, overwhelmed by the moment, and so on. What is not going to happen is turning the topography of America into one with repeated illegal or arguably illegal torment and harassment to persons that do not agree to 'gay unions'.
