A police force, or a police officer, is only as good as the worst cop they tolerate.
Anyone supporting the ‘thin blue line’ by not doing everything in their power to get rid of the bad cops deserves to be painted with the same brush.
I think there are a lot of mostly decent, hard working cops who damned well know who the bad apples are and don’t say or do anything.
So no, I don’t see this as an ‘either/or’. Both Thugs and cops who act like thugs deserve scorn.
I support *NO ONE* , nor any group of people, nor any organization, nor any movement blindly.
