I do agree, however, that authority figure characters too often are authority figures. By this I mean that Officer McCop is a veteran of the beat - he knows the ins and outs of the big bad city, he's rebelled against his commanding officer, he's collared some real scumbags. And every single time we see him, he's inexplicably on duty, in a bar, telling someone about all his Dirty Harry exploits. Doing a grand old job!
And he's just a couple days from retirement.
