That would explain the aggression.

I disagree. I suspect--don't have the evidence, just a suspicion--that today's cops are selected precisely for their aggressiveness. I would imagine that these tendencies are identified in the personality tests they are administered.

You may have a point. I have no way of determining what psych. eval. they use now. Back in my day it was all about determining if you were an Assh^&e. If they thought you were out to CAUSE trouble, sorry no dice and no job. It was all about analyzing a situation and using appropriate means to resolve the problem. No Rambo wanna be’s need apply.
