3. No touching me. Ever.
4. No asking if I've ever killed anyone.
5. No asking to touch my gun.
6. No interrupting my meal break to ask for directions or tell me about a ticket you got 20 years ago.

8. No asking if I remember you from handling your bicycle theft 5 years ago.
9. No reminding me about police discretion when I tell you that you're getting a ticket. I know what it is. Fight it or pay it.

11. No whiney little requests after I arrest you. No, you can't have a cigarrette, or a drink, we're not stopping to pick up your coat, nor will we take a potty break. You are going to jail , not a full-service hotel.
