Good Cops Vs. Bad Cops

There is nothing better than a good cop, nothing worse than a bad one Has always been bad cops since time began, nothing like the modern rampage I was raised in an era, to always respect the law The very same should hold true, for those that wear a star and a gun But now, we live in a new age If they take "dirty money", then they are twice as bad as the outlaw All of my life, I have lived on The Mexican Border It has always been a wild place, a outlaw's paradise With billions in drug smuggling, a sweet lure For a price, they can have their own "Law And Order" And in the end, they will pay a higher price May not be as sweet as before, but it is a cure For some judges, lawyers and cops, they are part of the law as well They have their price, their judgments can be bought But that is the way that they have chosen to play the game For honest people, it can be pure Hell it is a two edged sword the day they get caught For all honest judges, lawyers and cops, it gives them all a bad name Being the Devil's advocate, if they should go to jail Don't send them to a "country club" lockup, put them in the general population Let''s see how they survive, when they get to looking at him So they will really know what it costs to fail They pretty well know where they will go for destination One thing about inmates anywhere, they have their own "justice system"

Good write on a topic that needs attention. People are human no matter what occupation they choose. It would be wonderful if there was some kind of testing that could be done to determine what people would do under certain circumstances but we don't have that as far as I know. The time will come when there will only be done what is right, however for now we end up with the wrong being done. Keep the informative writes coming. Sara
