Policing and the downhill spiral into pure evil

Years ago, I noticed that the most anti-cop people I knew were all former cops.

What I don't know is whether they stopped being cops because of how evil cops are, or if they quit first, then realized what they'd been a part of.

One guy was a retired deputy. He told me he hated what cops had become. He was the first to tell me to do the right thing regardless of what the "law" says- but be careful. 

I don't know whether he ever realized cops were always evil, even before he noticed, or if he really believed they had undergone some sort of change over the years. 

Sheriff Andy Taylor was always a myth.

I never really talked to him about his years as a cop and the counterfeit "laws" he had enforced. He was a decent character, and I didn't feel like bringing it up. His last name, ironically, was "Pigg".

I've known and talked to other cops and former cops over the years, so when some copsucker pulls out the "Have you ever sat down with a cop...?", my answer is, "Yes, I have. Many." The decent ones were ex-cops, the crooked ones were current cops, and the very worst of the bunch was a cop-in-training. It's a downhill trajectory, and I don't expect it to get better as the police state grows more controlling and evil- and as the most worthless and evil individuals out there are drawn to policing as a career.

So, maybe they really have gotten worse over the years, and the former deputy was right.
