Mutual understanding of the complexities of the job on both sides is critical.
Nope, the way society works is OBEY THE LAW. That way you need not understand anyone, cops or illegal aliens or those just like you. All you need to do is obey the law.
Example. At a recent community meeting, many police cars showed up, including a canine unit, with canine inside. When three cops walked by the car, one of them pounded on the side of the car and made loud "meow!" sounds. The cops all laughed and continued on their way and, of course, the dog "responded.". A civilian would have been cited for doing the same. Big deal? Only for the immature among us who live perpetually in a black and white world (no pun intended).
And your example is a very good one. If you are a cop and you would cite ANYONE for an act, you must cite EVERYONE including your partner. That is the point of people here. You want to breed contempt for the law and creation of classes of citizens.
Having Nobles and Lords and even quartering troops in our houses is what prompted the founding of this country. Americans recoild at the special cop class as they rightly should.

Good luck with your world view.
