From what I understand the system is little bit more involved. In the Academy they technically teach you all the rules you need to abide by. But they drill the self and buddy defense imperative into you at every moment. This is so they can point at the training regimen whenever reformers make a stink.
But that’s not the end of training for police officers. There’s two more crucial steps. First you have to get through probation where it’s really easy to fire you and your training officer basically controls that 100%. So it’s a vibe check. Then they send you to continuing training seminars that propagandize police into a Hollywood Western mindset and teach them to not feel guilt or shame at killing people. Basically lowering the psychological barrier to shooting people.
Which for the record, isn’t even a step the military takes. It’s not hard to dehumanize someone threatening you. The only reason you’d need a class to do so, is if you’re trying to dehumanize people before hand.
