If a good cop doesn't stop the bad cops from doing bad things, they are, by definition, a bad cop. > How many times have you ratted someone out in an environment with oversized peer pressure? Why has this culture of oversized peer pressure been permitted to continue unabated for so long? When I was in the military, there was an incident where someone witnessed another serviceman committing a war crime. The commander dragged us all out, stood us at attention, and made 3 things abundantly clear: 1) if we committed a war crime we would be punished. 2) if we witnessed a war time we were expected to report it. 3) failure to report is a UCMJ violation and will also be punished. What's so special about cops? Why do they get held to a lower standard than the military?
