Also this highlights how you can never trust a cop or any follower class individual. They must obey and submit to authority. It is not a choice, but 100% imperative. They have no genetic ability to resist or defy authority (law, religion, media, majority rule, etc.), even for their own son or daughters (which is why you see them apologize and forgiving their childrens killers as programmed by authority).
NEVER befriend them. They are to be used and kept distant.
