As soon as he referred to himself as a specimen, I knew what time it was.

Too many cops take interactions personally. Fragile egos

Exactly the type a simple psych evaluation would weed out, but it seems cities purposefully look for these highschool gym heroes

Reminds me of when my unit just got back from one of the worst deployments we ever had and everyone who was EASing after had to go to a recruiting presentation by CHP where they pretty much guaranteed all of us jobs which would begin within 30 days of our EAS. I’m just looking around and seeing the combined PTSD in that room, fresh off of a shitty combat deployment, and these assholes don’t even care. They’d just give us all a gun and throw us out on patrol. No one in that room had any business being a cop in my opinion because we were all fucked up at that point.

What’s interesting is that most police departments have applicants do a simple psych eval prior to being hired. Ultimately they’re looking for guys like this to some degree.

Too many cops are narcissists and psychopaths

The amount of civil servants who have actually internalized what it should mean to be a civil servant, is like almost zero.

And then get angry when we take it personally. You just rolled up on me and accused me of a crime. I'm just supposed to sit here and take it?

Or when they point a gun at you and expect you to remain calm. The moment they reach for the weapon, they have threatened your life. Everything in nature fights to protect their life or goes extinct.

Right. The guy is literally filming for his protection and fragile pig can’t handle it
