the thin blue line thing became a problem when it became a cover for an attitude 'we are all that stands between you and the barbarians at the gate, therefore you should never question what we do, any and all ends are justified'
There is no 'us and them' all cops are there to serve all of us, even the few bad guys, we are all 'us', cops, criminals and law abiding citizens, we are all in the same boat
