My experience here in Houston (Spring) is that the police will come down hard on people who are breaking laws regarding endangering others, moving large amounts of drugs, or general asshat'dness. But otherwise, they let stuff slide with maybe a stern lecture. So the public I'm familiar with trusts the law enforcement. Maybe I'm naive, but I've not witnessed abuse of power or Barney Fife'ness like I did in Ohio. When it comes to the military or anything coming from Washington, everyone's inner Dale Gribble comes out.
