Back to the offensive part. Went so far as to capitalize the word zero.

Every single person who is a cop or serving in the military has maybe a mother, a father, sisters, brothers, a spouse, kids, close friends, cousins, comrades, etc.

Let's say there's 50,000 rotten cops roaming the streets. Do you have ZERO sympathy for the other 95% of them out there doing their job?

The vast majority of the military are folks trained to follow orders - no questions asked. The vast majority of them are decent people. I'll have ZERO sympathy when Dick Cheney dies.
