So we shouldn't go after the police for just a few bad cops?

And yet we are told that the cops act so aggressively toward people of color because of the dangerous criminals they encounter.

Wow, treating everyone the same because of a few bad apples, imagine that?

they'd try to moderate their behavior because all eyes are on them, they'd try to ACT like human beings, like the good cops they say they are.

But they aren't. Like spoiled children, they are just exhibiting worse behavior and throwing tantrums because they've been asked to stop killing people.

Seems like the "good cops" are a tiny minority.
