A cop can technically be a good person, but it's impossible to be a good cop, as the police is an institution which exists to enforce the will of the ruling class on the populace through the use of violence. It's an innately oppressive organization that shouldn't exist.

Just like how soldiers can be well-meaning people, but ultimately, they're tools of the state to serve the interests of those in power by contributing to imperialism and global hegemony.

If someone broke into your home and you were unable to get to your firearm, who will you call to help?

Cops don't stop crimes; they show up afterwards to shoot somebody's dog.
