i think that you can't really generalize. some cops are assholes, yes. a whole bunch of them aren't. where would be be without them?
as kaos said, its just like any other profession. there's always going to be bad employees. just its a bit more... a lot more inconvenient in this particular profession.
and i hear about all of the white cop shooting a black man stuff on the news, but that might just be because i live in seattle. i don't know.
edit: although i have heard lots of bad-cop stories. there's some horrible ones that are around protests- at the lieu one they were particurally horrible- randomly beating old men and tearing a little girl off her dad's shoulders so they could beat him, too. and lots of teargas and rubber bullets because one kid burned an american flag on top of a building. that was a bit ridiculous. but see what i said above.
