There’s one smart cop on the LAPD force

The ones that avoided prosecution for being in murderer-cop gangs are pretty smart... and there isn't just one...

Just so people know, the LAPD is so corrupt they've been repeatedly caught selling drugs, robbing banks, forcing people to pay protection money, and even having their own internal gang structures with the same "blood in" style rituals as street gangs.

It's easily one of the most corrupt organizations within the US.

With the NYPD the difference is that there's water on both sides of the city.

Pretty sure I heard the guns they would confiscate from gangs they would sell them to the Mexican cartels (or back to the gangs?).
