It sounds like the good officers though are being used for political gain of some police leaders who have taken Quentin Tarantino as an easy way to make points with their base.

I see nowhere that Tarantino attacked all cops as being murderers or anything close to that. He does make very bloody movies and has done so since Reservoir Dogs. I do not remember any police boycotts on Pulp Fiction or some of his other particularly violent movies like Kill Bill 1 and 2. They used a huge amount of fake blood for Kill Bill 1.
