Reply #8: I actually don't agree, I think the bad cops are in the minority.

The fact that the bad cops get more press is what makes it seem like there are so few good cops.

No one notices or comments when an officer does the right thing, but it gets attention when they do the wrong thing, and gives all cops a bad name.

That's why I posted this -- not to bash the cop that got out of control, but to praise his buddy who wasn't going to just stand by and watch a fellow officer beat up on a protester.

I've emailed the Denver PD with a link to the video and a request to find out who the officer was that restrained his buddy and tell him he did a good thing.
