I know hundreds of retired cops in their 60’s and 70’s and almost every one of them says the same thing, and NONE of them will have anything to do with today’s “law enforcement officers”, because they were all “Peace Officers”

Totally different from the retired LEOs I know. We have breakfast once a month and a bunch of us are in a Jeeping group. I never hear anything bad about today's officers. Yes, there will always be a few bad apples, but most are doing a fine job.

True. And, as ever -- but more common recently since the #1 activity of the media is piling on, or frantically trying to "localize" a national story -- only the bad apples get the press.
