One thing we can all agree on, so we can move on:
The FU cops should behave more like Andy and less like Barney Fife.

There, we're done.

2. We always called them rentacops. We had one guy who was crazy.
As in "I'm in pursuit of a Kamakazi motorsickle!" OR when he was hit by an anonymous snowball "I'm gonna say you threw one, you threw one, you threw one, and you threw one!" while pointing to 4 of us whe were innocent.

3. They were cool in my little college town..
I had a couple of them pick me up and give me a ride home after having had a few too many and attempting to walk home. I actually have fond memories of my campus cops, generally if you minded your own business, they left you alone.

4. At ODU they groused about escorting women late at night...

and were just total jerks.

They had no interest in protecting students. Just arresting drunken ones.

My experience with them at U Toronto hasn't been a whole lot better.
