Which I've always had a problem with right there. I've got plenty of negative opinions about government, but at least they've got some forms of oversight and democratic pushback. Somehow, I consider it so much more reassuring than a heavily-armed, drug-pushing squad that answers to no one, especially one under the command of a guy who blithely is unaware that his staff are 1) a date rapist, 2) a serial killer, 3) working alien terror technology in his own basement, 3) going to continue a history of betraying comrades in arms after simple emotional manipulation...
Gwen at least carried the vestiges of "hey, people have rights and using retcon like aspirin is bad."
