I honestly don't think a "majority" of cops are criminals. There are a few bad ones. There are a few more that are wife beaters. I think there is a high divorce rate due to adultery, too. Ok, and probably a lot of stress-related drinking. But those aren't RICO crimes. Those are "ask Jesus to forgive me" crimes.
Most officers of the law are truly trying to help the public. I think they just kinda keep to themselves. If you saw the side of the public that they see everyday, you would see people differently, too. I see some shit in my career that seriously makes me want to move to the woods and stay there. I've lost a lot of hope for humanity the last fifteen years. I would make a homicidal cop. First house I rolled up on that had a baby with a broken arm would be my last. I can't stomach how many people live.
Most cops are from the area they serve. They are a reflection of the local society in general. If you live in an area with fucked up cops, you live in a super fucked up area.
I can't say I respect every officer of the law, but I do respect the badge and the idea behind it. Somebody has to police this society.
Why all the cop hate? I think you probably work for a criminal defense attorney. If you do, be careful you don't view the world through a criminal's eyes. From that standpoint, the world IS out to get them. Effen criminals.
