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?
They look out for those 50k and in turn assume responsibility for their actions. You might have a point if our cops were ever held accountable for anything.

The vast majority of the military are folks trained to follow orders - no questions asked.

The vast majority of them are decent people.
What an idiotic broad brush statement.

de·cent
ˈdēs(ə)nt/Submit
adjective
1.
conforming with generally accepted standards of respectable or moral behavior.

Last I checked, murder isn't a generally accepted standard of moral behaviour!
