The police image has never been good. The main press, can offer you all the various heroes to impress you of certain kind ones. This the press, the best kiss up squad around. They need a source on the inside to snitch out information. So offending them most likely not going to happen.
Like in the fifties and the sixties when they were the worst of the "bully boys" evidence on video of abuse. The police image has suffered constanty down through the years.
Strange but honestly true. And although all races played apart in their negativity. The white male stupdity has brought them the most attention. And will continue to do so.
Until they clean up, what they messed up? Many WON'T accept this serve and protect motto they pushing on automobiles.
Movies, of the golden years at one time presented a better view of the police officers to some extent. While also pointing out the power to be bribed by the mobsters.
Which we still see in modern times a rogue hurting their image even more.
I'm just saying until they clean up, what they messed up? Folks, will still continue to sue the city and the mayor. Money, money, money.
