I used to believe that the police were the good guys that could capture all bad guys no matter what.
I also used to believe that once you break the law the cops would come, take you to jail and send you to court.
I used to believe that when you needed a cop one would come and do their job. That was until I found out that at best cops only catch criminals after the crime was committed and are not really modern day knights in shining armor.
