At the First Steps Picnic in McAdams Park, there was a lot of talk about the lack of respect shown to Wichitans by Wichita Police Officers. When KS Sen. Oletha Faust-Goudeau, was given a turn at the microphone, she noted how respectful troopers with the Kansas Highway Patrol are. “When they come up to your car, the first thing they say is, “the reason I pulled you over is….,” said Faust-Goudeau. It’s an approach she felt starts the interaction off on a much better term than, “let me see your driver’s license, registration and proof of insurance.” Chief Gordon Ramsay and those in attendance seemed to think it was a good idea.
