Well, if you separate out the police officers, politicians and lawyers are reviled in all circles and for good reason.

We may hate them, but when they are helping us, people in these professions are often considered our heroes, or at least our best friend. (while everyone may say they hate lawyers, when your attorney bails your butt out he/she is certainly your best buddy!)
All too often, however, these stereotypes are confirmed:
Politicians are corrupt and vote where the money is.
Lawyers are greedy shysters who will lie cheat and steal from their own grandmothers to make a buck
Cops are racist brutes who joined the police so they could beat up people legally.
Even though these are only true sometimes, when we feel betrayed by people with more power than us, we tend to hold a grudge.

Yeah, yeah, it really sucks big time......
So anyway, what do you call 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico?
A: A damn good start!
OK, OK, OK, OK, maybe that wasn't so good.....
Anyway, so what's the difference between a lawyer and a catfish?
A: One is a cold-blooded, dirty, bottom dwelling, scum sucker, and the other, well, its just a fish........

Well politicians are mostly crooked...
Lawyers are all crooked...
And the police have to play between the two.

There is a belief in some circles that they are all entirely corrupt.
