OTH here are some bodycam videos that shows you what cops have to put up with in (mostly) non-violent stuff. Think of it as "Cops" for traffic violations and stuff.
Bottom-line. I'm not sure I can be a cop. I'd slap the sh*t out of majority of these folks.
Body Cam Watch - YouTube
As an example, below video shows where a cop stopped a car but he couldn't see inside so he stayed back and called for backup. I better appreciate how cops approach an unknown situation. And another example where tasers don't work jack sh*t.

I'm kind of addicted to youtube videos of body cams. Both where the police are good and where they act horribly.
I can tell you there is NO way I'd be a cop. And there are plenty of interactions with all races that just go off the rails nuts. There are certainly bad cops. I don't think anyone would disagree with that. But man alive, some of the things they go through? Not for me.
