Strange, as I worked the streets, rivers and prison transports for 25 years, I never felt like nobility. I thought nobility was inhertited, not something you had to work so hard to get into, then keep.
Sorry, Glenn, I don’t get this either as a gag or as something you’d argue in Court. Lawyers are a lot closer to nobility as a class than cops are.

It isn’t the title of nobility that Glen thinks is being violated, it is the privileging of one class of persons over another as a matter of law that violates the Constitution.
As much as I’d like to be a Duke here in Texas, my neighbors prefer that my barking dogs and trash collection and so on gets handled the same way as theirs.
When I lived in a suburb of Baltimore, one neighbor was a sister of a County Councilman. Our streets always got plowed early after a storm, unlike some of our neighboring streets, and the plow always threw the snow away from her side of the street.
I’d never have thought anything of it if she hadn’t bragged about her influence over such minutia of civic life so much.
Titles of nobility lead to things like the Travis County DA getting a wet noodle slapped across her wrist recently, for egregious drunk driving and videotaped drunken attempts to use her office to stop the cops from hauling her to the drunk tank. She still holds her job, despite universal condemnation.
