It's ingrained with some people. :-)

No, it's less than that even: it's because of what you do
for a living, nothing more than that.  Wholly irrational,
of course, but a few of the posters of late have been as bad
as the tabloid press.  You're "one of them" so you are
personally responsible.  Try to ignore it.

I hope you're not unsubscribing?  Perhaps you could be
persuaded to lurk rather than leave completely.  FWIW, I
have viewed the more vitriolic attacks on you - which in
my opinion seem to be based on nothing more than an attack
on the symbolism of the uniform of authority -with some
horror.  Those individuals appear incapable of viewing any
issue from anything other than their own (distorted?) perspective.
