I was just watching that video of the Aussie cop who was bemoaning his lack of job skills and his wife’s lost job. He’s a man caught between some serious forces; his need to provide, his loyalty to his fellow cops, his feelings as a citizen, etc. Yes, he’s supposed to quit and die to save his country. Sure. I’m sure we’re all so stoic and brave. But maybe it’s too much to ask of your average fence-sitting cop. “Conscientiously object and lose your life and start over like the bums you arrest.”
What can be offered to these people so that we don’t have to fight them later. Sorry gotta run, dinner is on.

Why would you do that? They're prone to "I'm just doing my job" like their job can't be wrong sometimes. They like to be in fraternities despite that enabling corruption and collusion. Some of them have good intentions, but the biggest issue with police is there's been plenty of instances with LEOs not hiring people based on them exceeding IQ ranges. Something tells me they have a good reason for this and I'm not buying their first explanations which are usually shit.
