Repeating your claim won't - ever - make it true.
The people protesting police misconduct are claiming that all police are corrupt. Nobody, not even Amazon, is claiming that all employees are thieves.
If you do not see the difference, then you are not worth any further discussion. And no, I didn't bother to read the rest of your post, because it's all based on the error above.

Wow...
I sure am glad I wasted all those study hours in Logic and Language, and Ethics, in school!
You did
completely miss the point of my post. It has
nothing to do with what the people who are PROTESTING are CLAIMING. (Although I admit: I'm pretty gobsmacked to think that those folks really believe that ALL police are corrupt. That's pretty mind-blowing--but not the point.)
It has to do with
perception, and
how the acts of some affect the outcome for all. Like I said: it's a logic exercise. I see now that there's no reason to continue the effort.
