Slippery slope can be abused. Just because the law applies differently to
police doesn't mean it becomes meaningless. Many laws have built in
exceptions, but they still work.

have priviledges with regards to parking, for instance. Why not the police?
While resentment at others' priviledges is a natural human emotion, I cannot
find a good logical argument.
