it's how they're trained (or how little rather). They're essentially told that basically every interaction could potentially result in them being attacked and to stay vigilant.
It's not that they're trained little, it's that their training encourages antisocial mentality and behavior and they're never held accountable when they hurt people or break the law
And most cops are the dregs of society anyway. Violent sociopaths with control issues and irrational fear of the unknown.
And this training causes a self-fulfilled prophecy!
When you act super paranoid and aggressive because you are literally deathly afraid of every interaction, what happens to a public that is constantly dealing with that level of treatment?
