Hard disagree. My wife was stopped due to expired registration on our car - My fault, long story. The cop gave her a fix it ticket. Nothing else happened. They’re a good cop, or at least they were in that moment.

You know what would have happened if they were a bad cop in that moment? She would have been deported for having brown skin.

Good cops don’t make headlines, but they exist, and I’m grateful for the good ones we’ve encountered.

That being said, bad cops can fuck right off.
