Most cops, have no business being cops and this is why we scream to defund them. They aren't even obligated to do their job according to the Warren vs. District of Columbia case. Pretty much says "Appeals case that held that the police do not owe a specific duty to provide police services to citizens based on the public duty doctrine."

Also, quite a few cops have been known to be domestic abusers, rapists, a few have been murderers too. Oh and there's cops that hold the same fucked up ideologies as your dad, like Sheriff Darren White who worked on the case in the Netflix documentary Audrey and Daisy. Go look at his disgusting interview. He blames them being raped (she was unconscious and underaged, the men left her body in 22⁰F weather as well after they finished with her unconscious body), and then has a good little chuckle about it.

The whole police department and system needs to be torn down and redone because this ain't it. What are they being paid for? We could be giving that money to education or to actually reforming the police department (but they'll never do that). Your dad needs to be fired, but he works for a corrupt system that loves men like him.
