The current police "All cops are bastards" is a sentence quite used on T-shirts and it is often posted in social networks's status; however, is this sentence consistent with reality? We cannot deny that the police helps people and assures that the law is being enforced. Many police officers have saved several lives and have put murderers and thiefs in prison. With the police on the street, we are safe and we do not have to face crime risking our lives. Having said that, the government have the control of the police, therefore, a great part of the police officers just follows the requests of the people with power, they become soldiers without capacity to think or question the orders. A good example of this is the victims that police has asaulted in many demonstrations. To sum up, I believe that the police should always think by themselves and act for justice, questioning the law if necessary. With police officers whose main objective is helping people, we would not say that they are just bastards.
