    It makes me wonder honestly if cops were always this corrupt, or if they’ve become more corrupt over time. I’d believe either being the case honestly, but maybe the former is a perception borne from all the pro police media there were in the 90s, 00s, and 10s. Hell, even today.

      I’ve heard from people that were cops back in the 60s and 70s that after the 1982 decision in Harlow v Fitzgerald gave cops Qualified Immunity, illegally by the way, that was when the War on Cops propaganda started, and when they stopped living in the communities they were patrolling. I take it with a grain of salt since they were cops during the Civil Rights movement, and they didn’t quit, and because none of them realize that QI is illegal.
