You just used a single example to claim that many cops tolerate bad apples...........
Again, poisoned by the media. You hear about one or two bad cops on tv and you lump them all together.
The entire Highway Patrol maintained silence? Bud....do you honestly think most of the other Patrolmen knew how many DUI stops she had?? Trust me, some of them may have and it may have raised some eyebrows.........but most cops have no clue how much work another cop is or isn't doing. Just like you likely don't know everything your co-workers do or don't do.
I know a few shitty carpenters, a few shitty mechanics, and a few shitty attorneys. So all carpenters, mechanics, and attorney's must be terrible and must be covering for these few..........based on your logic.
