That’s unreasonably generous to cops, IMO. They have a pretty long track record of doing all of those and getting away with it.

- bigiain 5y agoTo be fair, I'm _reasonably_ sure most cops don't do those things. Most cops just let it slide while their "bad apple" colleagues do those thing. And are therefore complicit in perpetuating them. So you're still right about it being unreasonably generous to all cops, even if not all of them do that shit.
- ashtonkem 5y agoIt’s hard to say given that the stats are poorly kept, but it’s currently estimated that 40% of cops commit domestic abuse. Given that that’s a crime, a serious one at that, it wouldn’t surprise me if over half of them commit more petty crimes like theft.
