That’s true, but people on HN have a habit of saying ‘most’ when they really just mean ‘many.’

But it’s not one bad apple. It’s one cop who stole someone’s laptop while arresting them and entire system that looked the other way and let the theft go unpunished.

It's a "few" who actually commit the crime. It's the vast majority who refuse to prosecute them for committing the crime.
