You can skip feeling bad if the person deserves it.

Most people working as police, probably every fire fighter, nurse or doctor don’t deserve to die, so while you don’t have to go out of your way to attend their funeral or anything; the normal reaction is feeling bad for them.

I understand cops have a lot of bad PR right now (mostly in america), but It still kinda sucks they are all getting blanketed in the “deserved it” category, because most of them truly are putting up their life to protect yours, so they deserve some gratitude.

Also I always think about that fun fact where “police police police” (etc) is valid english.
