The bastard one is a little more evocative, but:
I know I'm not / wasn't one by any reasonable definition of "bastard"
I know it comes from a misguided place of anger so it doesn't bother me a whole lot anyway
I end up just feeling... sad for the effect it has on driving decent people away from law enforcement, which of course raises the % of Bastards overall.
