"Right now, in America, I think you have a large proportion of officers (and sometimes almost entire departments) that act unethically and break several laws and exploit their position. In these you also have a 2nd tier of officers who may not do anything outright illegal themselves but they are aware of things going on and do not report it or otherwise act to curb it. These officers are just as bad as the ones that are directly corrupt, because they enable it to continue."
I would have disagree with this. There are always a few bad apples no one will dispute that but to say it encompasses a large portion is just not true. The cops get tried by the media now, often on incorrect information, and people suck it in like a sponge. If people acted civilly most of these issues never happen.
