    It’s hard to gauge. It basically like reviews at a restaurant or store. You’ll have hundreds of satisfied customers and maybe two positive reviews, but you can be damn sure everybody that had a bad experience will leave a one star review. Same thing with police videos and articles. You get to see the worst while the hundreds of good, positive interactions probably just never get mentioned.

    Maybe it’s like that maybe it’s not, but I would lean towards it being the case. It’s just human nature.

      • there are bad cops
      • there are “good cops” who see the bad cops and do nothing – ie. complicit – ie. not good
      • there are “good cops” who try to do something and then they get fired, retaliated against, harassed, and/or assassinated – ie. not cops
