Well, what's really funny is that even though I would never execute a man that was trying to flee or taser an old man with his hands in the air, no police force would ever take me.
Regardless, one's willingness to do something has no bearing on their right to criticize brutality. If these were all isolated incidents, you might have a point, but clearly there are fundamental issues with how police forces in this country operate and how our justice system handles them. I would never expect someone to turn a blind eye to that simply because they weren't willing to don the blue themselves.

I've had good experiences with cops, too, but that doesn't change the fact that we have way too many issues with our police forces. It is important to recognize, however, that not all cops are bad.
