If you are a good cop and don't say anything when you see wrong and corruption from a bad cop, then you are just as guilty as the bad cop. You can't sugar coat it in any way. That is why I paint all cops with a broad brush. They all wear the identical clothes of the bad cop, so how can I tell which is which. I see all the stuff the bad cops are capable and it is safer for me to assume that all cops are bad and do not trust any of them than to take a chance and hope for an honest one. Today, I trust no one with authority. Especially a cop and my doctor, whom I also refer to as my probation officer, because his biggest concern is a drug test for me. He never ask me how I'm doing.
