what i'm trying to get at is that police are enforcing laws that higher bodies of government put into effect. if you're angry about drug laws, direct your anger to policymakers. cops don't make the laws happen.

i'm not saying that cops are not to blame for issues surrounding policing in general.

this is gonna be an unfortunately controversial statement but it's human nature to follow authority even when there isn't anything significant to lose
