I mean… at a certain point though, can you blame them? The system is so heavily corrupt that even criminals walk free, so ofc a high-ranking police officer will too. Like if the governor, mayor, and chief of police are all active members of the actual KKK, is a noobie’s job to overturn all of society to make it more just, or can they do at least some good if they keep their heads down and focus on what they can affect?

Most Americans (I am one) are lazy AF, always wanting others to do work for us. Trash collectors: “just make my garbage go away” (rather than work towards a more sustainable lifestyle). Doctors: “make a pill for that” (rather than eat healthy and exercise, but accepting that death eventually comes for us all). Police: “just make crime go away” (rather than work to address the systemic imbalances in the system that cause it.

Ultimately it is not only the job of police to police the police, but also the Mayor and thus the voters to choose what we want done. And if one side refuses to function - which sometimes but isn’t always the police - then it is lazy to place all the blame onto them.

Also, since when did the job of police ever include “changing” anything? Their whole thing is to “maintain the status quo”, which is like the polar opposite of change? Oh… now I get it:-P.

It’s Dale Earnhardt and a couple other people
