@bigsocrates: To make it clear. I don't think him big timing a cop is anywhere as bad as the female trainee case (or the cases of him being proud about abusing girlfriends and female fans [read: the carnie term for them], while claiming to be a feminist). It's just that he has a long history of just constant horribleness that he gets a pass on because him being an asshole backstage translates well to him playing an asshole on camera.
Like, I get that most of the CM Punk appeal has always been that when you give him a mic there's this sense of danger to his promos, that he might blow up at any time, that makes him really appealing. But it's never been that appealing to me, especially after realizing his MO. I don't find a dude bringing up smark talking points about his opponent to be entertaining. Heck, I watched that promo him and Drew had last week and Drew fucking smoked him and his retort being bringing up Vince just made Punk look bad in my opinion. That's the thing, when against a promo guy like Drew or Eddie or heck, even Hangman, he just ends up looking desperate, and not in a good way.
