The grand irony of the 'blue line' is when I was in elementary school (summer before 5th grade), the PD in my city had a summer camp called Camp Blue Line. And it was there that I first shot a firearm (ruger 10/22), under the direction of a fucking cop. Strange strange world😂🫡🏴☠️

The military isn't the police. Having the two separate is a concept that's only a century or three old.
Cops are not all that smart (most departments don't accept candidates who test too high). In most cases, the problem isn't really the cops. It's the laws and training. Cops are mostly drones. Only a few get promoted to actual detectives (and most of them are dumb drones too).
How the cops get taught and trained makes an impact. The body camera era also has a massive impact. Defunding or getting rid of police makes areas way worse. Before the era of the constable and British Common law, you had a lot of vigilantism and arbitrary not-rules.
Hating cops is really a luxury belief for people in richer communities.
On the flip side, ICE and the IRS are becoming more militaristic and less like constables. That's the real danger. When your police acts like your military, the people tend to become the enemies of the state. Everyone celebrating ICE raids is too dumb to realize this will easily turn back on them, just like the mandatory citizen checkpoints with 100 miles of the US border under W. Bush.
