There are bad cops, bad judges, bad lawyers.etc. Every job has good and bad. We remember the bad ones because they were really bad and abused their power. The news covers the bad things but hardly ever tells us about the good stuff they do. Bad news sells, good news not so much.
Except bad cops can absolutely ruin people's lives. Like @Willy4UK pointed out, every time you deal with them, you can lose your freedom, lose your life and lose your money in any interaction with a cop no matter how small the situation is. Just ask the guy from New Mexico who got pulled over for rolling through a stop sign in a Wal-Mart parking lot and then having the cops claim he was clinching his butt, which then resulted in being fingered by multiple cops and doctors and a forced colonoscopy and they found nothing. http://www.usnews.com/news/articles...olonoscopy-by-cops-wins-16-million-settlement
"No drugs were found by police in Eckert's vehicle or within his body by doctors at the Gila Regional Medical Center, who administered two digital anal probes and an X-ray scan, then inserted into Eckert's anus three enemas and analyzed the resulting stool samples, then performed another X-ray and – ultimately – conducted a colonoscopy with anesthesia."
There's too many of these ******** and they rarely face the punishment they deserve. That guy that shot that kid at a 7 Eleven I posted earlier, HE RECEIVED ZERO PUNISHMENT! How crazy is that?
All I say is, thank God we have cameras now to at least have some fighting chance at exposing these jerks.
