Bad apples

As the old saying goes, put one rotten apple in with a bushel of good apples, it doesn't take long for them all to go bad. Of course the solution should have been don't put a bad apple in in the first place, or at least take it out before it does more harm.
Now, replace the word 'apple' with 'cop', you get the idea.

To bad we can't take all the bigots out. Wouldn't it be great to have everyone being friendly with everyone else? We can't take all the bigots out, but we should at least be able to keep them out of the entire justice system, from police to prosecutors, to judges, jurors, etc..
It would also be nice to keep them out of Congress (both houses).
