I know some very nice cops.
No you don't
I’d like to offer the other person the explanation that maybe there’s some Andy Griffith type of small town police from long ago that was basically a good person and wanted to just keep their community from hurting themselves. Today though, every cop is part of a network where blatant corruption, brutality, and injustice is perpetrated basically right in front of you constantly. It’s the kind of stuff the only adequate response to would be to demand change.
No good cop could remain a cop for very long in such an environment and still be considered a good cop. Thus, all cops are bastards.
I don't know why this got me so hard. Just cackling over here.
OK but if after the past decade I find it hard to believe someone may not understand plenty of reasons to flip off cops who are standing there.
Cops are not a separate species. They are as pig-ignorant, reactive and violent as everybody else. They just enjoy more opportunities to express it.
