Comment OP meant it more like “dawg” like “Yo dawg, wassap?” But made a joke about “lawyer, dawg” and “lawyer dog”. :)
Even dawg can be seen as disrespectful. The cops don't wanna associate with what they deem to be "thugs". They don't want to be your "homie" or "dawg", so when you call them that, you are acting like their friends, and the cops think of themselves as having a higher status than you, not as your friend. Its like if you talk to conservative parents and call them "bro" they'll slap the shit out of you, even tho the term "bro" isn't even inherently offensive.
"Disrespectful" is absolutely the wrong word. I don't owe cops shit. Certainly not respect.
I act mature around them for my own benefit, not to satiate their need for "respect". What the average person gives cops isn't respect, its fear. I respect cops the way I respect guns, treat them poorly and shit you don't want will happen. That speaks far far less of police officers than it ever rightly should.
Fuck the police, I want to speak with an attorney.
Maybe "disrespectful" is the wrong term. I meant more like "provocative".
