Police are the bullies in the schoolyard. The bankers and gentry pay them. There is a reason the people hate the bullies.

There are only three groups of people.

The ruling class
Those that work and protect the ruling class for privilege and status
Those that are subjects/citizens/slaves

Judicial, legislative and police belong in the middle there. We, the stoners, we belong on that there bottom. Why hate them? They protect the laws from above without jurisprudence (that means without judging the law). That would be similar to shooting a human because you are ordered to.

So, it is very simple, someone sworn to uphold the "rule of law" rather than a citizens inalienable rights should be hated, not respected. Someone who enforces laws regardless of their legal nature is a criminal, one who deserves derision and hate.

Simple no?
