Republicans argue problems can be solved by reforming individuals; the police are good, there are just a few bad apples.

An odd thing to say, as the saying is that “A few bad apples spoil the whole crop”. I think they’re trying to say that that “The police is an overall force for good because the isolated cases do not dictate the whole”. The saying is the exact opposite.
