I have a problem with my neighbor's children and he's a cop. No one cares a bit about what he does. Hell, they whole family went out of town for a week and literally left a pit bull and a german shepard alone in the back yard with a cattle feed type thing to feed them and a cop comes by the house every day and fills a bucket of water through the fence. I mean seriously, if I did that when I got home my dogs would be gone and I would be in trouble. Cops (in my experience) have an advantage and live by a completely arbitrary double standard.
