People like to use whatever they can to attack those who dare disagree with them. A few years back, an actress was feuding with a neighbor over petty shit. He started it by nitpicking and she would do shit like throw his dog's shit in his yard where it shit in hers. It was mainly just yelling, but he still tried taking her to court. He had animal abuse charges pressed against her when she threatened to rape his dog. With that thrown in on top of his other complaints, it was easy to see how fucking retarded the whole thing was and it was his doing. The case was thrown out, but she had to go to court talk with police and prosecutors over this shit. People are mean spirited and spiteful for no reason when it comes to their sense of entitlement.
And also politicians. And petty bureaucrats, and public servants (see also: bankers) in general...
Obligatory disclaimer that I don't hate ALL cops. My uncle is a serving cop. I come from a military extended family (albeit a deeply toxic one). I may well have trained to be a cop or a soldier, or a fucking spy (yes, I'm serious... We call them "intelligence officers" over here), if things had proceeded differently...
However I do hate these cops. Riot cops are evil, and not of the apparently "necessary" sort. Cops who hide behind horses (or members of the public, or their gender, or their race, or who cower in their vehicles, and then ram people with them) are the very, very worst, and they deserve all the scorn, at minimum, that they get.

Narrator: especially cops.
