I have a take home car with US government plates and it’s never crossed my mind that someone would take issue with it.

I'd say most are boozehounds, if anything. It's just a job. They do 20 years and cash out that pension.

I live in DC and have a cop for a neighbor and I love it. He is friendly, quiet, minds his business, I mind mine.

The the smallminded bigots presupposing such a neighbor would be racist are the ones I'd not want to live near.

All my interactions with state troopers have been very professional. They were on the side of the road, of course, and in my younger days.

My brother lives a couple houses from a sheriff's deputy and it's fine.

HUGE if true. Citation?

They don’t usually take their work car home with them. I love when my neighbor does though! Slows down our street racers. Plus I figure it’s a good deterrent. It’s pretty rare though only after a late shift.

Good answer, agree.

Why the no for lower crime area?

Yes.

I'm friends with a concert pianist. He sold his house to a scummy personal injury attorney. All of the immediate neighbors were angry.

That sounds wonderful. I’d be delighted! It would encourage me to buy

We have a sheriffs car 2 houses down.
It’s totally fine.
Wouldn’t give it a 2nd thought.

Yes, that would be my dream actually.
