All decent citizens support the police when they do their jobs according to real laws. However, such police obedience does not always happen in Philadelphia. In the last 40 years, over 2,000 Philadelphia cops have been fired, arrested, and/or successfully sued for misconduct such as robbery, extortion, perjury, assault, rape, and even murder. Do a Google search if you doubt this.

Nonetheless, many crooked officers are not held accountable in any way. For instance, on September 11, 2014, the Philadelphia Daily News reported that of the 164 Philadelphia police officers who were accused of domestic violence just in a recent three year period, over 93% were cleared by internal affairs, and of the less than seven percent who were not, only two percent were convicted and not rehired if initially fired. 

Perhaps Officer Ron Previte said it best in his "60 Minutes" interview: "I had a good work record. Except I was a crook. But most of the [cops] I worked with were crooks … I never learned about crime 'til I went in the police department. I always said that I really became an adept thief when I went in the Philadelphia Police Department. It was a nice life...And plus, I had the badge. I couldn't get any trouble...".
