Son milicja went into a bar everyone got up and lined up by the wall, milicja came to a disturbance in a home no one dreamed of taking a swing at a cop they'd beat him like a dog and he couldn't do anything about it. Respect, they might have not liked them but they did respect them.
I know that you've got no idea of respect (what with telling women that their mothers are prostitutes) - but really, you must be seriously deluded if you think that people did those things out of respect.
People obeyed the Milicja, but they certainly didn't respect them.
