Yeah, stereotypically speaking, it's the 90% of bad cops that give the 10% a bad name. Funny, though, the "good" 10% don't seem to have a problem with that.
The ratios are nothing like 90 bad:10 good. That kind of hyperbole is uninformed at best, and disingenuous at worst.
I understand where you're coming from. I have an uncle that feels the exact same way about black people and Muslims. Wait, what?
To the extent police work is someone's religion, I'd submit that these are exactly the police I'm talking about.
So you're a bigot against Police _and_ Muslims.

Got it. At least you're consistent.

Yes, my simplistic worldview often gets me into trouble. But this will come as no surprise to you, I'm sure.
