Hence why it's not possible to call out a good cop. There aren't any because they aren't calling out the bad ones

Listen…. If you truly believe this then you should never call the cops. By your logic they’re all bad, right?

Didn’t think so. There are a majority of good cops. We see the bad ones because it pulls views. Crime has gone significantly down since the 70s 80s 90s and 2000s. These are facts. If there’s only bad cops then this wouldn’t happen.

Yes cops do bad things too often. No, not every cop is bad. These two things aren’t mutually exclusive. Use your brain or don’t call the cops since they clearly make every single situation worse.

No, that's a terrible argument. We can still utilize the services of a government service while also actively calling them out on their wrongs too. Your mentality is just excusing the bullshit they pull because in your view "not all cops are bad" well NO shit Sherlock! Remember, they work for the people (supposedly). You dont excuse the wrongs of an organization just because some of them do good. If we did, then there would be no accountability at all.

Crime has gone down since those times, while that is true it doesn't help your argument.
