the less I like the police and see them as what they are, a necessary evil in our society, who you should watch warily with eyes wide open. I've known too many cops who over the years have grown into an its' "Us" (cops) Vs "them" (everybody else). Don't believe there is a us vs them mentality? An insider and outsider mentality?
Well you sure seem to have the us versus them mentality. Jeez, I can't imagine why the cops feel that way too? Is this like especially a bad thing in Colorado? I think I did read about your Sullivan guy. It proves the adage that everyone one has a little sinner and saint in them to some degree. Sounds like he did some good things, then somewhere along the line became a total dirtbag. Good thing other cops nailed that guy. People are people no matter what job they have. Doesn't mean you should through the baby out with the bathwater and swing that wide brush. You only add to the problem you are suggesting. Oh, it is also another good reason to never name a building after someone until they are DEAD.....
