They don't take it seriously enough. They go play army man.
Playing army would mean keeping their cool in hostile territory.
Actually it means raping brutalizing and killing civilians in territory where you are not welcome
YOU know that. They don't seem to.
I was thinking more that the general population takes them too seriously.
I disagree. They have the ability to kill people with little repurcussion
And yet people thank them for their "service" and put "thin blue line" flags in their yards. That is the kind of "too seriously" I am referring to.
That's just cause those people buy into the delusion the cops have.
But I agree with your overall point
