I don't know why when I see a police in uniform I just see a corrupt police. I know not all police are corrupt but I just have this feeling that he going to do something bad or something like that.
But maybe its because most of the holdups, robberies, drugs has all connection to police that maybe I can say that about 70% of police are corrupt. But this is only my view. Funny thing though when I'm still a kid I want to be a policeman. lols.

The police is for controlling the crime but when they start doing crime then it becomes very difficult for a common man to differentiate between a corrupt officer and a honest one. Because due to some corrupt police mens the image of whole department turns negative. The image of police department depends on the percentage of good work or bad work they do. If they are found to be involved in more and more corruption cases then the image will be negative in the eyes of the public and vice-versa.

I had a personal experience to prove that there really are such policemen that knows nothing about justice and all that they want is how to get money from innocent people. I'd like to share it to all of you but I fear that this response would make me in trouble. Anyway, I am hopeful that I could really met one honest police so that the bad impression I have of them will be completely erased from my mind.

I understand the feeling as I have doubts seeing those men in uniform.
I am not also saying that they are all bad, but the fact remains that some of them are involved in many cases (too bad)
It's really odd to feel that way- feeling fear and in danger instead of security.

ohh isn't this stereotype? Isn't this prejudice to them. Please, you should not say that 70% of policemen are corrupt unless you have made a study. They might be scary but I don't think they deserve to be judged as this. I pity those policemen who were caught in between the images some other policemen are doing and did specially the true ones.
