I agree to a certain extent, but I think there are good and bad people in every profession. I think that bad cops are the ones who don't take responsibility for what they do, and I think there are good cops who, even though they have a badge to hide behind, still take personal responsibility for their actions and use their own judgement to do their job, as undesirable as it may be, in the best way possible. Every cop is (theoretically) told to enforce the same laws, but not all cops choose to enforce all the laws all the time. Cops often look the other way to minor infractions, just as other cops turn a nothing into a something just to be an asshole. Some cops plant evidence, and some cops ignore evidence. Some cops are crooked, some cops testify against crooked cops. That was even true with the Nazi's. Some of them hated their jobs, some of them relished it. Rommel was their best general, but he routinely protested the treatment of Jews, often refused direct orders from Hitler to execute Jewish POWs, and plotted to kill Hitler. I wouldn't really consider him to be a bad or evil man, even though he fought for an evil side. Good men make the best of bad situations, in the best way they know how.
