Why would you believe he's a cop? He makes things up all day long. He's created a weird fantasy world for himself at TOL where every guy here is a homosexual, there's a gay parade packed with leather-clad homosexual men on every block, and he's a vice cop assigned to patrol men's public restrooms.

He claims he's a vice cop, and...
As for him being rude, he doesn't claim to be a Christian. You do. This means that you should uphold higher standards than someone like him. As a Christian, the fruits of the spirit should be demonstrated in your life. "Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, self-control." I don't think any of us here can see evidence of any of these in anything you say.
What acts of love have you done lately?
...he claims to be a Christian. Yet there is no evidence to back either of these claims. Most cops work a minimum of 40 hrs./wk., Yet if we survey his post times here there is no way he can write those posts here and fit in a work schedule (100+ posts since February 14). I suggest at best that he might fit in a minimal part-time job somewhere close to home, but since he lives in the woods it generally means a lengthier commute. And his claim to Christianity, considering his behaviors, can at best be explained by Jesus parable of the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25. Can you imagine his ranting if he's told to move to Jesus left? Maybe he'll post in TOL, "Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?", followed by "End Trans."
As it is now he gets offended when it's pointed out that sin is sin, and that slander and bearing a false witness is just as heinous as murder, homosexuality and child molesting.
Matthew 15:10-20
10 After Jesus called the crowd to Him, He said to them, “Hear and understand. 11 It is not what enters into the mouth that defiles the man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
12 Then the disciples *came and *said to Him, “Do You know that the Pharisees were [d]offended when they heard this statement?” 13 But He answered and said, “Every plant which My heavenly Father did not plant shall be uprooted. 14 Let them alone; they are blind guides [e]of the blind. And if a blind man guides a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”
The Heart of Man
15 Peter [f]said to Him, “Explain the parable to us.” 16 [g]Jesus said, “Are you still lacking in understanding also? 17 Do you not understand that everything that goes into the mouth passes into the stomach, and is [h]eliminated? 18 But the things that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and those defile the man. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, slanders. 20 These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.”
Yet one sin is singled out as being more serious, blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. When we consider all the times other Christians tell their witness of what the Spirit has done through them, only to have those witnesses ridiculed and told that they are going to Hell, that is really pushing the envelope of blasphemy of the Spirit.
Mark 3:28-30
28 “Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; 29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”— 30 because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”
