Bad Apples

Bad Apples?

I find the phrase "a few bad apples" — an ironic imputation that most or all cops are bad apples — wearying.

I believe that most cops are not bad apples. They are good apples, spoile by bad apples

But if most cops were bad to the core, things would be much, *much* worse, and there would be no hope whatever.

America is shuddering with racist fever dreams, but is there hope?

Of course there is hope. I have it right here in my heart. Take some, share it around. I'll make more.
