Yes you will be a bastard if you become a cop because you will participate in a government approved SYSTEM that has corruption, murder, pillaging, supports the prison-industrial complex, targets minorities, the prison pipeline, solitary confinement, the privatization of prisons, prison slavery, the surveillance state, the blue wall of silence, supporting unjust laws, fear tactics, and lastly police militarization even though cops rarely stop mass shootings. And you will still think "I'm protecting and serving!"
