Not speaking up or pushing against policies and such that target specific groups of people because that's the way we've always done it makes you a bastard still. We all know there's probably one or two good cops per department/precinct that truly wish and do help people when they can. But they're silenced for the sake of their job speaking out against the mistreatments and policies.

Oh I WHOLLY agree. I just find the willingness to concede that some may be good people under it makes people open to the conversation. Then you logic them into a corner and help the see that all cops ARE in fact bastards.
