Just an offhanded remark - something that made me ponder.

This is obviously an attractive woman.

In the old days, cops were accused, and frequently guilty of, asking attractive women for their phone numbers, or even directly for sexual favors.

Now apparently they’d rather have violence than sex.

Not sure what this means, other than something HAS changed in our society.

Something has changed with cops. i used to think it was something found in small town or county depts and not in big cities that have well trained forces. Here in NYC the last two police shootings are very troublesome. The Times Sq knife wielder and the Empire State shootings raise concern. I know a great many cops. Between mine and my wife’s family someone has been on the job continuously in NYC since 1951, but too often I hear the statement,”my first obligation is to get home to my family safe every day”. While I understand the mindset, perhaps they shouldn’t have taken this job. Anyway, I think I know what you’re saying.

For some guys, violence is sex, or at least foreplay.

I agree this has become a disturbing trend. The treatment of the woman seems particularly harsh, even if she was behaving with an attitude. Its the fist bump thing that is distasteful. These are professionals, they should act like it.

Roid rage (steroids).

They're just practicing for when they get the order to load us all into cattle cars.
