From what I've heard cops used to be a part of the community, and I wish it actually was that way.
That's definitely a very big problem in most departments. There's a sort of "us versus them" culture that can be very hard to break, where cops break the law and cover each other's backs.

Could be. In the end, cops are just people, and there are all kinds of people.
