Good Day all,
would it be wrong to say Merry Christmas to a LEO at a traffic stop or should you just keep to the basic happy holidays or season greetings. I do not want to upset a cop by saying Merry Christmas , thank you and Merry *********

I vote for "don't get pulled over to begin with" and you won't have to worry about it.
Of every one hundred men, ten should not even be here. Eighty are nothing but targets. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the One... One of them is a Warrior... He will bring the others back.

I wouldnt say anything. People tell me that and it just reminds me that I have to work yet another Christmas. I do get double time and a half though...

When Safety Steve works on Christmas, he passes out presents just like Santa! Giving a sincere Merry Christmas should not offend anyone.

If Merry Christmas offends anyone , they need to get a life.
The wish is that of " have a great Christmas Holiday " . It does not mean that is MUST be religious in any manner. Christmas is not only a day of the year , it is also a time of the year. Many people choose to celebrate this time of year in many ways and however you choose to celebrate it , I hope that it is a merry time for you.
Merry Christmas !Creeper Cop

I tell people Merry Christmas and don't give a squat if it offends them.

I'm working on Christmas Day.
We do rrandom breath testing down here. That means, I stop a car and submit the driver to an alco test on a small machine. I can stop any car at anytime with no reason.
This Christmas, you get stopped by me, and you are driving safely, with a licence and registration, and are not drinking, not only will you get a "Merry Christmas" but I intend on giving out candy canes as well.
You fail any of those you are likely to get a free cop car ride. Either way everyone gets a Christmas present Saturday.

I got Merry Christmas from 5 of the 8 tickets I wrote on Christmas eve. The DUI didn't wish me a merry christmas although he was quite cooperative.
