That is the biggest crock of shit I've ever heard in my life.  I'm not a big fan
of the speed limit -- I think it's an arbitrary number that represents the
government's attempt to force me to dumb down my driving skills to a level that
even 80 year olds who can barely see over the steering wheel of their Cadillacs
and Lincolns can handle.

However, while there are some cops who get off on the power to generalize to an
entire group of individuals.......well, good ole Adolf Hitler used to do that,
too.

The place that I work out has a bunch of cops from different branches and they
are all decent guys who frankly do a job I would never want to do.  They all hate
the guys who get off on the power and have very little respect for them.

Show a little respect for these guys who take a chance of getting their heads
blown off every day for people like you and me.
