[’F the Police’ but who’s stopping you from killing me?” ―Harder Than You Think - Public Enemy I do believe about 20% of police officers have good intentions and significantly more signed up with that attitude, not knowing that they protect the wealthy elite and crooked politicians more than they uphold democratic values and ethical standards in society. Unfortunately probably more of them consider such a career because of the authority it gives them. Therefore I prefer to say that “many cops are bastards”; granted, it doesn’t have an equally nice ring to it.

Intentions vs actions. All cops are bastards because it doesnt matter what their intentions are when their actions mean they prop up injustice, legal slavery, oppression of the right to protest, and corruption. Cops enforce what their boss tells them to enforce, as is the way in extremely hierarchical organisations. Their intentions no longer matter, they do as they’re told.
