You will constantly have people assume you are the scum of the earth and hunting down black people to murder. That's the BLM narrative, they say all cops are bad. It's pretty horrible. Most cops are good. And with that said they get orders from a corrupt government so they will be doing corrupt things.
There are racist cops. There are bad cops. There are corrupt cops.
There are also many that are none of those things. There are people that truly want to make a difference, and take their oath seriously. There are departments out there that allow cops to properly do that.
It's not an easy, or popular job. But it's necessary, and there will always be people that will step up to do it. We are in one of the worst, if not the worst time for law enforcement right now, but every pendulum swings both ways.
Every day I read terrible stories about cops, and it really does give the entire profession a black eye (or worse). Every day I also read fucking disgusting stories about truly heinous crimes that people commit.
The profession isn't going anywhere. We may see it change, and in some ways it needs to. As long as there are robbers, there will be cops.
