As I said above, I think there's ample evidence that the police in the US have deep-seated structural and institutional problems, problems which are not being resolved or addressed. And for what it's worth, I don't buy the 'bad apples' argument either. However, it's a hell of a leap to go from that to the simplistic generalisation of 'all cops are bad', let alone celebrating the death of a police officer, simply on the grounds that they're a member of the police force. There are, presumably, tens if not hundreds of thousands of police officers and law enforcement agents in the US. I would be very surprised if there weren't at least a few decent ones.

"Cebrating" is a strong word. I'm not celebrating the fact he killed himself or what people that knew him now have to go through. But some people's cultural impact by choice is to uphold oppression and take part in a deeply corrupt and murderous regime
