You can find videos on YouTube of the father of the hyper paranoid and reactional cop. He's been doing seminars for over a decade telling young recruits that 'THEY WANT TO KILL YOU, SHOOT FIRST, THE CITY WILL BAIL YOU OUT!"

I can't remember his name, but any idiot good with YouTube and Google can find it.

I posit if you're that much of a frightened and paranoid pussy, you shouldn't be a cop. But that's just me.

Yeah, I've heard of that guy. He's one of the many reasons why the US police suck so much. But, he can only influence cops in a world where cops can't be held legally responsible for their actions. If cops could be charged with murder / manslaughter people would avoid his course because they'd get sent to prison for following his advice.
