Y'know, that almost sounds like old-school "Comics Code" writing--the villains must never be sympathetic, crime must never appear to pay, etc, etc, etc. ...except they go and make the supposed "good guys" just as villainous as the bad guys... just a different badge color.
I blame current politics--for the Land of the Free, we've got an awful lot of very unfree crap going on. It's going to get reflected in our fiction.
