I don't see what's wrong with the logic that only a completely morally bankrupt person could be a cop in a place as reprehensible as South Africa under apartheid.
Yeah, because God forbid a "good" person would want to join the local policing agency to try and make things better.  Or was (is?) every white person on the dark continent a horrible person in your eyes?  As I'm sure you've read here a thousand times, the world isn't as black and white as it appears through your young eyes.

You're making quite a leap of logic from "people enforcing apartheid" to "every single white person in Africa"

And a person on the police force abusing blacks is NOT making things better.
Well you did say....

You're saying all cops in South Africa during apartheid were morally bankrupt and I'm saying that's much too simple and incorrect.

"You don't become a cop because you want to serve and protect. You join the force because they let you carry a gun and a badge. You do it because you get respect. Most people respect the badge. Everyone respects the gun."
No doubt some cops join for that reason, nobody will argue against that.  But your ignorant if you think every single cop during aparthied was a racist bastards itching for a reason to beat on some "darkies".

"Vast majority" is a LOT different than all.  Especially when we're talking about killing people on the side of the road.
