The way you say it sounds so nonchalant that it actually gave me the chills.
All the police I've ever met here in San Diego County are awesome people. Same goes with GameStop employees (and people on this site bitch about GS employees a LOT).
I'm proud to live in southern California. ;)

Oh it's not like that in L.A. I was held at gunpoint by a cop who busted into my friend's house because the poolman accidentally set off the security alarm when he tried to put his equipment back in the garage. Cops showed up, came into the garage, busted into the living room and pulled guns on all of us, and demanded to see identification to find out if we even lived there or if we "broke in to have a party." It was 11 am, the alarm woke us up, we went downstairs, looked out the window, and right when we were thinking "Hm, there's the cop car, but where's the cops?" BAM! they were right behind us with guns at our faces.
I've also had a cop drive by, slam on the brakes, get out of his car, and then pad down my whole body, crotch and all, to see if I was armed. Why? Because I was ringing my friend's doorbell with a cane, and he thought I was trying to "break into the house." My friend even came to the door and said he knew me and was expecting me, and the cop wouldn't let me go until he finished touching my crotch and writing a full bullshit report.
I also had a cop put his hand on his gun and start to twitch (but not pull it out that time) BECAUSE I WAS JAYWALKING. He said he thought I was suicidal so I might be dangerous. Since ya know, people only jaywalk when they're about to start a murder/suicide killing spree.
The whole Los Angeles area is known for bad cops. Rodney King? Rampart? Don't taze me bro?
San Diego's gotta be a dream in comparison.
And now I live 1 train stop away from where that cop shot Oscar Grant!
