The big thing is 70% support and enable the 30%. Those 20% are not genuine heroes if they protect rapists, thieves, racists, and violent criminals who abuse their authority. They are, at best, the lesser evil.

I would argue they’re actually the greater evil in this scenario. The ones actually DOING the unthinkable acts stand a chance to face repercussions, albeit a very small chance. The “heroes” are effectively tools of pro-cop propaganda via association and cover up of their dogshit monster coworkers.

If you are a good cop, no the fuck you’re not.
