    That’s the crux of it all, right there.

    Cops ought to be what you describe in your first paragraph, but in reality the job is simply thug-with-a-badge.

      Cops must take six weeks off BLET (basic law enforcement training). That’s mostly it, some cops get a two year criminal justice tech degree, and humanities weren’t part of the required curriculum when I was a student. If they are now, it apparently doesn’t sink in.
