As I mentioned, and you neglected to take into account...
I believe cops that do the wrong thing should be bought to the publics attention

My theory is that cops are the most visible authority figures and most visible arm of the government. Thus, people who are unhappy with the government have an easy target. Also, being the most visible, the corruption or bad apples amongst them are also the most visible. So, that's what happens as people become more and more disgruntled.
The thing is, the good cops should also be working to make this happen. if these proposed good cops exist. But they rarely do. The police are given massive trust in a community, which is routinley disrespected and abused. And it's more than just a few bad apples. The abuse of their "power" is just phenominal, the ammount of young black kids in London who are illegally searched for no reason, is staggering, andd that's just 1 example. The police have completly lost the support of those who they are supposed to be protecting, becasue they are no longer there to protect us. They are there to rasie revenue for the government and big business and to make as much of the public criminal as they possibly can. They have figures to keep up with, which in the line of police work, which is about fighting crime, is so ludicrous and anti law, it's silly.
