the knights of the crusades fought on behalf of the catholic church, in todays terms that kinda like joining the army as the us government is now the world superpower not the church. your idea is way too far fetched, this isn't some superhero movie based in an alternate reality this is real life buddy.

Hey man, I'm just theorizing
The problem with police and the military is the personality types that join. A lot of misinformed  people with inferiority complexes saying they want to serve their country, but really just looking for more power. The misinformation is what causes so many soldiers to come back with PTSD. They though they were going to be doing something good with the power they were given, and are ordered to murder people they know are innocent.

yea no shit and thats the real world, it's been like that since the beginning of war. you think people would have ever joined any armies if they really knew what they were getting themselves into?

in this world vigilante justice can exist in ways like "someone kills my friend or family member, im gunna go kill them" (happens in the hood everyday), or child molesters being tortured and murdered in prison (also happens every day). it can not exist as a group of people who somehow are morally perfect (or more dangerously believe that they are) pushing their moral agenda through violence. then you just get groups like the crusaders, the kkk, the us army, police forces act.

This is all very true, and it saddens me.
