>No one is denying that good cops do exist.

If you'll look closely through this comment section, several people have suggested that good cops don't exist. I'm speaking to them.

I do not deny that calling police can be a big gamble.

They're being hyperbolic, there's no point arguing when someone says there are 'no' good cops.

It just sidetracks the conversation.

I would agree with that. The problem I have is that I fear that hyperbole promotes an attitude that causes people to act as though the extreme exists. I hope you understand my meaning.

A bunch of people slinging hyperbole around sidetracks the conversation more than anything else.

My apologies, I think we're on the same page then.
