    I’d change that to “The kind of person who successfully becomes a cop…”.

    I think a lot of people want to be a force for good, and the intent behind police as a concept is to reduce crime, and crime is generally bad. So a lot of people want to be cops to make the world better. But that’s like wanting to be an honest politician. Most people already playing the game are there for personal power, and if you don’t lie and cheat you won’t have as much power as those already in place.

      If a person in America doesn’t already know that all cops are bastards and that there have been constant protests and reporting about it over the past couple of decades then they are choosing to be a type. I’m no longer willing to pretend that everybody has good intentions. This isn’t the case for police and the FBI.
