General Discussion

I see quite a few video accounts of police celebrated when they engage in kindness... viral episodes of a cop purchasing eggs for a shoplifter, rescuing ducks from drainage culverts, etc. I think I see them because I hold no real contempt nor respect for law enforcement collectively, and not as much bias is preventing me from seeing both the good and bad.

However, balance for its own sake is a bias in and of itself. Unless one can illustrate that good cops and bad cops exist in equal numbers, balance as such, is irrelevant. Two of one and seven of the other do not hold the same weight; and hence, balance between the two may only be achieved by over-estimating or de-emphasizing one or the other.
