A critic of how fucked up police culture is and how it destroys any moral compass its actors posses.

Spoiler for a 10 years old show : It ends with a cop committing suicide by cop to ram that point in.

Hmmm.  So the cops are the bad guys?

Tonitrus

Southland is about people wanting to enact change within that organization and failing until it destroys them.

Finished The Diplomat. Was pretty good. Keri Russell is hot in a Milfy way. Love the Floyd tune at the end.
My only gripe is that Court of St. James seems to have more back doors than a late 90s porn site. I can see her leaving the building through one, but getting back in without being noticed?
