Stop beating your wives, planting evidence, flashbanging kids, shooting innocent bystanders, murdering people begging for their lives, tasering restrained kids in their genitals until they die, kicking handcuffed women in the teeth, killing lawful concealed carriers because they informed you they had a weapon IAW the law, producing and distributing child pornography, raping teens with your partner in the back of a police van, lying to magistrates to obtain search warrants that result in killing innocent homeowners, stealing from folks without warrant nor charges filed, seizing guns extra-judicially because the politicians told you to, shooting folks in the back at stop signs, etc, etc ad nauseum.
If calling out this immoral behavior alienates you or makes you hate the People you claim to serve - that's an indictment on you, not the ones saying the above behavior is a serious problem.
The actions of law enforcement - and their response to being caught - is the sole contributor to the growing divide between law enforcement and the population at large. It's never been safer to be LE in these United States since the 1890s (according to the pro-police NLEOMF), yet as an institution you're convinced that you have targets on your backs and everybody is out to get you....when all evidence points to the exact opposite. The only thing that's changed is 9/11 Hero Worship ain't what it was a decade ago, and y'all just don't feel like the population kisses your asses like they should.
It's this collective paranoia, encouraged by folks like Dave Grossman, that drives this idea that what you do is a calling higher than violently enforcing the scribblings of politicians, regardless of the moral or constitutional basis or lack thereof.
It's not. You aren't made of finer clay.
The unwillingness of your profession to take a good long look in the mirror isn't going to help heal the divide between police and the People - if anything, it's exacerbating distrust and open hostility between the two.
I'm sorry you got your feelings hurt.
