Like all walks of life respect should be earned and given on an individual basis not just status or title. Plenty of decent cops out there but PLENTY of bastard pigs as well. Title means nothing you earn respect. It's idiots that blindly bow down to certain folks because of their title that are the problem and why alot of things go unchecked for too long.

People who have been given authority don't always do right and some never intended to I'm sure. Just used the veil to have free reign of terror without being questioned. Cops, priests, politicians on and on ........

Not in any way supporting the killing of cops. But seriously all this protect and serve crap and hero worship way overboard!! Alot of them are just criminals themselves with a badge shaking down people on petty b.s. to line the pockets of their superiors and themselves.
