15/ I wasn't raised a leftist. I had cops in my family. I always assumed that they were decent people doing a job well, with a few small mistakes... but then the relentless drum roll of evidence changed my mind, much against my desire.

16/ now, it is true that any profession, no matter how good the typical candidate, is going to have some psychos I don't blame the vast majority of cops for this ...I blame them for their culture of ACCEPTING and COVERING FOR these folks. That's on them.

There *are* good cops but they certainly aren’t rewarded for it and they never seem to get into power at police departments. We knew one, he sadly was murdered responding to a domestic violence call.
