PROBABLE CAUSE

It's not an easy job in any sense!

No, it isn't and that's why I'd like to see them properly trained. I don't think many of them are when their first reaction is to pull their weapon out.

Try to put yourself in their shoes. (I try to) The cop only has a split second to respond if the thug has a gun and aims it to shoot at the cop. If the cop is not greased lighting on the draw, and he can't get his gun out fast enough, and he's a dead man. He wants to go home at night.
Again, it's not an easy job, training is good, but sometimes training tells the cop to go with his gut.
