Until the National FOP joins the majority of Sherriff Depts. and Stops enforcing illegal liberal/communist laws against the 2nd Amendment, The big city 'police' are Not Public servants and they are no better than the corrupt bobbies in England.
Municipal and State police are nothing more than hired guns. They should all be eliminated in favor of an expanded Sheriff Department whose principles are elected.
How many overlook the fact that the reality is, most officers work for a corporation (towns are literally companies aka incorporated) and that next to NONE of them qualify as "constables", on patrol or otherwise. (That's what COP means, BTW) - Essentially a judge on the move, able to make legal determinations right there on the spot without the need to call in and talk to a superior/supervisor.
There's a schism between good officers that walk the walk with a good heart and deal with true criminals - and then there's poser douchebags like the one that detained a father out for a walk with his autistic son early in the morning for "contempt of cop" because he didn't have ID in his sweatpants. We don't need any more of those assholes.
That's why some don't back the blue... Trust broken multiple times, people's lives ruined over trivial bullshit while extorting them under some nonsense that "injured the state" etc. We don't need a fucking swat team showing up in multiple $100k vehicles because laquanda dint git her whopper wif extra cheese on it. There are WAY too many with not enough to do just looking to "make their numbers".
Municipal and State hired guns draw from a similar pool of psycho- and sociopaths that are drawn to politics. Good men usually dont seek that type of control over others.

Well put.
The police, their loyalty and accountability is a conundrum I constantly ponder.
They need to be completely separated from the civil service and politics. Able to make arrests of the aforementioned without influence or consequence.
The system of law likewise is broken to the point of being a criminal racket. Most “judges” are incompetent or corrupt.
