    Sounds like the kind of police force with the perfect conditions to be rife with criminality and corruption: those who put the esprit de corps ahead of Justice like this to protect a “few” bad apples with this kind of statements and demonstrations, are not going to be firm about the application of the law when it comes to the “making of a little money on the side” (such as with bribes), for their colleagues and quite possibly for themselves.
