Cops get no end of crap because they GIVE no end of crap. They kill POC with impunity, blatantly lie about their and each others’ misconduct, and waddle around proudly denying COVID while putting right-wing and racist garbage on uniforms, squad cars, and in political endorsements. Teachers and health care workers do unimaginable good in their communities. Cops not so much.
