The problem with cops is that there are good cops who ~~generally behave well and genuinely want to serve and protect their communities~~ do not report bad cops.

They are law enforcement, enforce the law. No exceptions.

Yes, I agree completely. I was just explaining that it's not ACAB because literally all cops are out there getting away with extrajudicial beatings. It's ACAB because they don't throw out the bad apples (aka. don't report bad cops)

The ones that do, aren't cops for long.
