I am actively applying to police departments in my state at the moment and I will say that I agree. That is how I would have handled the situation. Check it out, no crime being committed, have a nice day and please be safe/contact us if anyone makes you feel unsafe. I realize that a number of posters are predisposed to disliking the police, but treat any law enforcement officer with a modicum of decency/*gasp* respect and they may just return the favor. I want to be a cop to protect your rights, not trample them. I wish there was some sort of conspiracy theorist - cop outreach program. I GUARANTEE both sides would be surprised and find some equal footing.
