You can equate their trigger-happiness with the steroids coursing through the veins of these LEO thugs. The communities and Police Chiefs that hire them, and the US Department of "Just-Us" that tolerate them, kinda like it this way; helps keep the sheeple under their thumb - sheeple, as in a significant portion of the US.

I see your point, mine is this, why take the steroids in the first place? Possibly because they know they are in the wrong profession and need an ‘edge’ to keep going on and on.
I’ve known several officers over time and in various locations around the country. The good ones have told me that ‘common sense’ is no longer common in the ranks. They have also told me that the bullies are becoming more and more prevalent and that they too are worried. Some of them are VERY worried.
