Exactly. I can't understand those who back cops 100% no matter what they do.

Oh, I understand it alright. Those people who back cops 100% no matter what, got real, real quiet when a bunch of Black cops beat a guy to death.

Hierarchy is very important to a large subset of the population. It’s not what someone does, it’s who that person is that matters. These are police officers and that is enough to make there actions justified in the minds of maybe 40% of our country. Goes just the same for clergy, the wealthy, the military. This is how you can have a dyed in the wool small government conservative 100% pro police and military the two largest most active and shall we say hands on government organizations. It’s ridiculous.
