In this case you don’t seem to understand, the police are not corrupt here - its the city officials that are the corrupt ones - the cops are just trying to protect people and do their job with the officials taking away their riot gear (which the courts may have restored). Railing against to cops is antifa’s tactic.
I understand plenty.
The second a police force follows an illegal order from their mayor or city council (such as standing down or sending out a message that people are on their own since they were ordered not to use their tools), they have become corrupted and are as at fault as the one who gave the illegal order.
