Not everyone is, by any stretch of the imagination. It is a tough job if done right.
Those who are good at it are a rare breed and have my respect.
I completely agree. It does take a special kind of man or woman to do it well, and those who do do it well deserve all the respect we can give them. Which is why when we have rare instances like this where an officer abuses his authority, acts in a panicky manner, and places the lives and safety of civilians and, perhaps, his fellow officers in danger then he should be removed from the force.
