I’m acquainted with a constitutional sheriff. He tells of teaching a class to young officers and mentioned the Bill of Rights.

One cop in the class looked at another and whispered “What’s the Bill of Rights?”

Needless to say, the scope of the class changed drastically.

You just touched on a huge truth here. They have absolutely no education about the civilian Constitutional rights they are swore to uphold. And most that do know, think that they have the authority to exempt Constitutional rights whenever they like. They are “Special” and these safeguards do not apply to their superior authority.
