I think pointing out “I have cops in my family, therefore there are good cops” is inherently poor counterpoint because obviously the cops aren’t going to admit to wrongdoings to civilians (although the poster didn’t mention any domestic violence happens in the home, which is shockingly high in cop families…) is not mental gymnastics.

<<“I have cops in my family, therefore there are good cops” I apologize. This is not what I intended to convey. That line was intended more as disclaimer ("hey. i am not completely objective here"). My actual argument follows beneath ("cops are just humans").
