I am watching a marathon on Discovery channel about real policemen.

Lately everywhere cops have been called the bad guys of the movie. And of course, there are bad cops as there are bad people in every situation in the world. But in many situations they do good jobs and save lives. In my country, lately, cops have been called all sorts of bad names. But they have a gun and fight against narcos who have big weapons. This semi documentary show has policemen who have a camera with which they can see what is happening. Have you seen it?

Our policemen here some are crooked and some are not. When they undergo search and arrest they don't have any body camera with them. Our lawmaker prohibits it to be worn by the cops.

I have seen many documentaries and some showed bad incidents and some showed all the brave and heroic acts by men and women law enforcement officers. I believe that there are corrupt officers and departments, but it's a small percentage. Similar to the percentage of corrupt businesses or plumbers, electricians or other service providers. There will always be some bad because people are that way too. Some of us are bad. It's that simple. I believe that 90% of every police department is good and honest and really dedicate their lives to serve and protect the people. It's just that the other 10% get all the press. It sells better.

I have not seen that one. Police here have gotten a bad rap for awhile. Some cities have even called to defund the police. That is absolutely crazy. We need the police. They risk their lives every time they get on the streets.
