I’m familiar with some positively pleasant police officers that help around the local elementary school. All the adults and kids love them.
That doesn’t make me reject ACAB though. I don’t know what those cops have been up to in the 99% of their working hours where I don’t see them. Normally nice people do horrible shit all the time even without qualified immunity!
And even if they are as squeaky clean as cops be, the saying isn’t “a few good apples purifies the bunch.”
Are you the same person that always claims they know very nice police officers whenever someone says “ACAB”?

I fully believe that there are copsswho are nice people. But systemic issues don’t go away by individuals not being dicks.
