Power corrupts, once you get a cushy job like this and join an iron clad union where everyone there believes they have a super hard and demanding job, which they do, that paints a bullseye on their backs and suddenly you get major ego problems, nobody can deny me I'm a fucking cop, I'm the law, it's no longer about upholding the law, they have become the law.
The other problem is that it's fairly well known that a lot of cities can't keep officers so sometimes they have to take those that aren't so hot. I'm pretty sure Atlanta has had very low pay for years and it causes a lot of officers to move on to other places and those officers need to be replaced and relatively fast.
I think another part of the problem is we never see stories of Officers doing good.
WTF is wrong with the police in this country? Who do they hire for this job?

I don't know...it's absurd how they behave.
I hope she goes after that cop who did that to her and really makes it personal.
