> Police culture in America is based around disgust and disdain for the notion of "rights".

All American culture increasingly feels disgust and disdain for the notion of rights. The police culture is the result of that broader problem.

This might be true if police brutality and disregard for rights were new problems, but they're not. The reason these problems with the police are finally being discussed is because there are cameras everwhere now.
