… but it’s just a few bad apples. Most cops are very fine people.

I’m sorry, kinda hilarious that you had to add a sarcasm tag. And sad.
I was hopeful the two separate clues - “just a few bad apples” plus “very fine people on both sides” would be a banger. Maybe it was just too good.
Can we take a second to appreciate that those hands were drawn very well? Like, most times I draw a hand, it just ends up looking like a stupid blob, but this poster has gotten the shape and proportions pretty decently. And not just once, but twice. Good.
Even worse. The police has both the authority and the budget to:
- Test candidates before they hire them as cops.
- Train their cops.
- Discipline the violent cops.
Protest organizers can’t do these things. Anyone who wants to join the protest just needs to arrive at the appointed time and place, and if they behave badly - the ones allowed to punish them are not the protest organizers but the police.
