I never quite got what the end goal is for people who paint the entire concept of police as a bad thing.
Living in a society requires rules of some description. The existence of rules then necessitates a mechanism to enforce them (or else they effectively do not exist), and some people to carry out that enforcement mechanism.
The problem I have with cops is there's virtually no accountability with them. Most of the time, whenever they fuck up, at best they do an internal investigation which usually results in "we have investigated ourselves and found that we did nothing wrong". They rarely try to even get rid of the bad ones because its basically a fraternity with guns. The few good ones who actually try to make a change with in the department and repot the bad ones usually end up getting pushed out. And when they are in the act of doing something terrible, theres really nothing you can do to stop them because if you intervene then you'll either get arrested or shot, all you can do is film them and hope they don't kill the person they're attacking, hell even filming them could put you in danger.
