Guys... look, as much as I didn't think I'd do this, you're missing Ulti's point. He isn't incentivizing being a bad cop or condoning it. He's saying that it's really hard for a good cop to call out a bad one without risking his life even more than usual. That's a big reason for the "silent blue line" when an officer fucks up -- if any of the good guys steps off the line, they might have their backup conveniently stuck in traffic the next day. That's the awful reality of the job even for a true believer.

Of course my view of the good cop/bad cop ratio deviates a lot from his, and I also come from a police family, but fair is fair. There are other factors that make it an incredibly toxic culture, but I really don't feel like getting into it.

Tr;dl Being a cop is even harder than you think because bullshit internal politics can also get you killed, so the culture as a whole needs a course correction. That's a big reason it's so hard to change awful police culture from within.
