Do you arrest a man beating his wife? What do you think happens next? That is not your job. You are supposed to arrest the bad guy. Well, it used to be that way.

You are another one missing the point here. How about you are a cop and you arrest another cop who is a meth-addicted psycho, who has the full backing of the department? How about that one? I'm sure you have it all figured out, because you've been there, done that, right? And remember, NO ONE will touch him, but you've got the answer.

I'm old school, which means I know BS when I see it.

It sounds like you're using a real life example. If so, what are the details?

Oh, I get it, all right. You would just go along with the status quo, maybe watching a little closer, but won’t take a chance of reprisals or worse because he has the badge behind him.
Just like the battered wife who knows not to call cuz she knows what will happen and there is no badge ready to help her.

My question to you is:
What happens when the methhead goes off and harms someone? Will you be there backing him up or cuffing him? I mean, now that there is a victim. Do you cover for him? Do you feel any regret for not arresting him, getting him help and so on sooner? Sometimes right is right and it hurts.

You seem to be admitting that better than 95% of the department is corrupt. Hmmm ... very interesting.

Then you are admitting law enforcement is so corrupt that they won’t police their own. You can’t have it both ways. You can’t be an honerable profession, and one that refuses to police their own.
