Most police do good. You only hear about the bad ones because they get more views.

Definitely not the case in Mexico..

Lived in Tijuana 5 years and I was WAY more afraid of the police than the cartel or any local gangs.

That's not true! People around here leave their cars unlocked with the keys in them overnight and then wonder how they could have possibly been stolen.
