Are most cops like that? I don’t think so. But a significant percentage of them are, and the rest of them tolerate it.

Agreed..
My Gramps was a retired cop. He used to say that there’s no such a thing as a bad cop... What you have is a bad command structure.
I illustrated this point long ago, with a very lengthy post., but it needs to be posted again;
The cop answers to a senior cop.
The senior cop answers to a sergeant.
The sergeant answers to a lieutenant.
The lieutenant answers to a captain.
The captain answers to an assistant chief.
The assistant chief answers to the chief.
The chief answers to the mayor.
The mayor answers to the city council.

All of these people not only tolerate, but accept this type of behavior.
Now, the city council answers to the people, as does the mayor.
And yet, somehow, these people keep getting re-elected.

So, who ultimately is responsible for the mis-behavior of the cops?
