Yea, cops are just humans, they have egos as well.
If the girl spoke to her calmly she wouldn't have asked her to step out, because the situation did not originally warrant her stepping out, the cop was just pissed off. Similar to the Sandra Bland case, the cop only pulled her out because she didn't put out her cigarette when he asked her to (which he had no right to do).
Yes but here's the thing, civillians are also human, they too have egos. A civillian does not have the Force Options that are bestowed upon a peace officer, so oftentime there only recourse to talk shit loudly when interfacing a cop.
Which is why I could never be a cop, or a parent for that matter. "Sorry, your honor, it was my damn ego again." will never hold up in court for a guy like me, why should it for anybody else in their proffession? Especially one with life and death stakes?
A cop on the other hand knows that every single day they are on the frontlines of human angst, if they can't handle the turbulence of what they knowingly sign up for without losing their temper over some screamy heffa then they should give their badge, gun and pension to someone who can.
I'm not saying this to bash cops, but the very nature of their job means that they are subject to elevated standards does it not?
