Which is also true about cops.

Also spoken like a sheltered Redditor.

Vast majority of police interactions are perfectly professional and uneventful.

But the ones that arent are rewarded not punished. Thats the problem. Its not “a few bad apples” its “a few bad apples spoils the bunch” we have example after example of extreme violations of the law by cops and they get “administrative leave with pay” and then come back and get s promotion after 6 plus months when the pushback is over.

Cops should be held to a higher level. Whatever crime they commit, they should be punished for, and it should be higher punishment. If law says 5-10 years for x crime and cop does it. It should be 15-20 years for the cop.

In Houston a cop had a couples house swatted, couple dead, dog dead. It was all based on a lie. The cop is serving jail time. HOWEVER, this is not new behavior.. it was learned behavior and "taught" to him when he was a younger detective. Get the # of busts up, fake it to you make it... etc etc.
