[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Three of my close family members are police officers including my retired father. They would all admit police departments have problems including inadequate training and [b]a few bad apples[/b]. Every single one of them retired the moment they were eligible because of the danger and stress. The thing I have discovered is that everyone wants to defund the police until they are unfortunate enough to need them for something.[/quote]

The complete "a few bad apples" saying is: a few bad apples spoil the whole barrel.[/quote]

Yet we know that isn’t accurate. There are a few bad doctors. Are all doctors spoiled? There are a few bad teachers. Are all teachers spoiled? There are a few bad humans. Are all humans spoiled?

We don’t throw out an entire group of people based on the worst among them.

Jawando’s legislation (to get this back on track) tends to follow the “all police are bad apples” train of thought. His current legislation, and even the language he used to introduce it, demonstrate that.[/quote]
