Inside the Mind of an Out of Control Cop "And now we are getting to the point.[...] That being afraid is enough when you are a cop, meaning police are a protected class. (It is already a more serious crime in most states to shoot a cop than a citizen, and it is much, much more serious to shoot a cop than it is for a cop to shoot you.)[...] And yes, it goes without saying that police run the spectrum, good to bad, just like anybody else. But you don’t turn into a different, better person by putting on a uniform and police are not a higher order of human beings or answering a higher calling than anybody else, and all the fawning media in the world doesn’t make you better than you are, any more than cop-haters make them worse."
