It’s a messy picture with cops, too because that job so strongly attracts cluster B personality types. You’re not just working a job that is institutionally trying to drive you crazy (Killology seminars and all), but the job itself is highly attractive to the most unstable people in society.
Pedantically that doesn’t take away from your point but asserting just for clarity because I see people bring it up a lot:
The infamous Killology lecture isn’t taught to the vast majority of law enforcement in the US as I understand it. We certainly didn’t receive it (or similar) at my academy.
I’ve heard it isn’t quite as bad as cherry-picked-and-taken-out-of-context-to-malign, but I’ve personally never watched it, much like I haven’t read Mein Kampf; “That seems like a soup sandwich of nasty, so I’m not going to waste my time.”
