      • OK, First off, I am glad cops are there, and I totally respect the job they do. its a hard job, and i dont want to think of life without some form of law enforcement.
        About why I dont trust them. What I learned from watching my brother. Think about this: 99% of the contact they have with people is negative. Like some on here, they justify thier evil, and want to flaunt the laws that cops are there to enforce. So, the cops have negtive contact with them. After time, this gives cops a jagged edge, they stop trusting people. Also, when it comes to your word against theirs, the courts always will take the word of the cop, so they are legally put above the people they protect. Add to that they are expected to save lives, be a hero. Which builds in their heads, they are heros, and above the people in that respect, but its still a hugh ego. Lastly, they learn the smart ways crooks keep from being caught.
        When you consider all this, it is way to easy for a cop to become crooked, dirty in some way. They can justify it (remember, all that negative contact), saying everybody is guilty of something. They have the knowledge (From criminals). And, they feel above the law (your word against theirs). I dont think all cops are bad, but in many circumstances, i dont trust them. Sorry.

        • so, like a stripper constantly harassed by assholes, the police officers slowly start to think that everyone's an asshole based on their experience with people. well, that's what I got from this.

        • To catch a criminal you must know a criminal. Same as a doctor who knows cancer they are treating cancer but it does not mean they will catch it or ever had it. Knowledge is a very valuable thing and we should all try to broaden our knowledge. We all have the ability to do bad and evil it simply goes to see how good of people we really are, and the choices we make at the end of the day.
