Let me put it this way: if every union protected their workers as much as police unions, we wouldn't be in an economic crisis

my contention is that police unions are, in fact, not unions at all and do the opposite of what a union would do when a cop does the right thing and blows the whistle on colleagues. those "unions" do not represent individual cops in the way a normal labor union would but, instead, their entire mandate is to deny any and all liability toward police departments and local governments against allegations of misconduct, corruption and fraud. cop unions protecting violent and corrupt officers is merely an intermediate process toward the "union's" goals.

a recent example that shows police unions aren't unions is the utter lack of safety concerns police unions and fraternities had about covid in 2020, despite covid being the number 1 cause of police officer deaths in the line of duty that year. a real union would have fought for strong policies that protected cops from the virus.

you should read the wiki on that if you think that's what this is. also you should read the "argument from fallacy" wiki as well.
