beating that horse again, are you?

so every drunk, stupid, over-reactive cop is now a juice head.

how about the non-police officers who beat people up? should they be tested too?

He’s been assigned anger management. Maybe he dopes too much caffine. They do that too.

Or maybe he’s a former doper. Houston’s police force no longer rejects applicants who have past drug CONVICTIONS from serving as officers.

"so every drunk, stupid, over-reactive cop is now a juice head."

No. Not everyone. But, I think it would be naive to believe that the abuse of steroids doesn't account for at least some of these cop-rage incidents.

Steroid abuse in the law enforcement community is the dirty little secret of, well, the law enforcement community. My guess is that if the LE were testing for steroids in their urine analysis screening, the results would be very troubling for police departments across the country.

What's even more surprising, is that there are many police departments that don't have random drug screening for their officers, let alone random drug screens for steroids - it's a bone of contention in the collective bargaining agreements.

Not every one, but the number of them suggests that chemical enhancement is occuring.
