So, cops are supposed to sublimate their sense of morality to people who write the laws?

Tell you what, let's put a 100 people on feeding tubes behind a chain link fence, remove the tubes, then have the cops keep people from taking them water or sustenance. Why not? It's legal, the courts say so....

Afraid so. The police are sworn to uphold the law, not their individual senses of morality. If an officer doesn't believe he can in good conscience uphold the law, he would be honor bound to resign his position.
