All true. With you.
Minneapolis native here. Plenty of good police officers in town, they were always there for me when I needed them a lot last summer (junkies on my lawn shooting up every day). Met a few, good guys, doing their jobs.
There is also a small but extremely hard core of Law-N-Order cops, Trumpers, black haters, cops of the Cops-Who-Actually-Get-Proudly-Photographed-With-Donald-Trump variety. Senior guys, hard asses. I find it very easy to imagine younger, good-hearted cops with consciences and ideals being very intimidated by the tough guys who run the shop.
Notably Minneapolis Police Union Chief Bob Kroll, who publicly derides the Minneapolis City Council for its “ultra-leftist agenda” (his words).
Below is photo of Bob Kroll addressing a Trump Rally. So much red! And look, he is wearing a T-shirt with the word “COPS” on it over the state of Minnesota all Red, White, and Blue.
Of course he has a legal right to do so.
What he lacks are the morals and ethics which stop good people from doing bad things like this.
