I went through an academy back in '99 while in the military, I got bored with my office job and had a chance to go play cop for a while came up, it wss nothing like this, and tons of emphasis on professionalism, I mean it’s the military, Marines specifically, and professionalism is already heavily implied.
I know far too many LEOs are trained in that disgusting Killology, this is where the author, Dave Grossman, trains cops that it’s “good and natural” to kill, and that killing is good for their sex drive, it’s a load of insane bullshit that is just enabling the psychopaths in law enforcement and encouraging more violent and abusive behaviors.
Now it’s also a given that my training was prior to 9/11, when everything changed, but also when the “warrior ethos” bullshit started being perpetuated among law enforcement. The bottom line is this, cops aren’t supposed to be “warriors” per se, they’re supposed to be peace keepers, and they play an important role in the communities that they are supposed to protect, and the supreme Court and others have allowed them to stray far from their stated mission of “protecting and serving”, it’s been time for reform for decades, but it’s more needed day by day as this current generation of cops just becomes more and kore abusive, corrupt, and politicized.
Except it is extremely normal. It’s literally the bulk of their training.
Maybe modern police training.
