The thing is, Andrew, as time goes by we see and hear of more and more cases of unacceptable right through to downright abhorrent behaviour; we've all heard the "one bad apple", "don't tar them all with the same brush", "I know a couple of coppers" defences bandied about but it's becoming pretty obvious that there are significant and widespread issues that are increasing in frequency and unpleasantness.
At this stage, I simply don't believe that there are a majority of officers who are oblivious to what's going on amongst them - they're employed to uphold the law and if they cannot detect it and enforce it in their own organisation then they're very clearly and obviously doing their jobs wrong and are unfit for the role; either that, or they're turning a blind eye to their colleagues behaviour either because they don't care or because of a rotten culture within Policing which this is equally as concerning and unacceptable.
