Nobody hates a cop who does his job honestly and with honor.
It’s a pity that (in most people’s real-world experience) such good cops are rare.
Are you kidding? That is up there with, and I'm sorry to be rude but, the dumbest things I have ever heard in my life. Every single time a cop does his or her job honorably, there is another side to it: the suspect's side and his/her buddies who try to claim abuse, etc. The fact of life is this: very few people like to be arrested or have force used against them, although some suspects are at least decent enough to acknowlege their own actions and take personal responsibility for them. Any peanut gallery members who think they could be cops should do a ride-along in their city/county and see first hand the crap police officers deal with...remember, every time the cops are called is a situation the caller could not deal with him/herself and neither could anyone else on the scene.
