In other words, clean up the bad cops.


Unfortunately, it is all too easy to paint with a broad brush (on a LOT of issues, from every side) and the good people...get plastered with the brush meant for just the bad ones.

If institutions/entities made more effort in cleaning up their own houses...there would be a substantial decrease in the problems we're seeing.
