That is incorrect.  Its not that people are judging police by its more violent participants.  Its the system that allow those violent participants to get off free when caught.  Its the system that only slaps them on the wrist when they do a crime that would net you and I in jail for a long time.  Its not just about the bad apples in the bunch is the protection of those bad apples that is the result of frustration and anger.  What you do not get is that these bad apples have existed for decades doing wrong and then protected by the system and other cops.  This is where the frustration ad anger comes from when there is no justice when a police officer does some wrong and cause a loss of life through either neglect, incompetence or pure hate.

There is still the matter of proof that the system truly is biased.

That differs from region to region within the US.  Its probably more dependent of the diversity of the population in different areas of government, local and state.  Personally, I would be just good to get Police out of this frat mentality and find more non lethal ways to deal with problems instead of shoot first and ask questions later.
