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.

Stanford University analysed almost a hundred million traffic stops and found that cops required less suspicion to search black drivers and more suspicion to search white drivers.

They also found that blacks are more likely than whites to be pulled over during the day, but when night falls, the disparity nearly vanishes since it's too dark for a racial ID. Ergo, the cops are racist.
