      my most pro-cop take is that we should get rid of patrol cops and replace them all with more murder detectives

      I think some of it may also be a sense of despair, a whole "well we have all these guns floating in circulation & hardened criminals now, so we need an equally armed task force to deal with them..."

      More specifically though, there IS a lot of that attitude out there, but it's not a coincidence, nor is it related to like, real events. It's how cops are trained:https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/02/dave-grossman-training-police-militarization/ …

      exactly! america is safer than it has ever been, but cops pass around these fantasies of constant lurking death tell each other tales of that one cop forty years ago who got killed in a traffic-stop ambush because they're constantly psyching themselves up to kill

      like whatever i've actually read both of grossman's academic books, and that's something he comes back to over and over people are mostly very reluctant to kill strangers they need to /work themselves up to it,/ through training, through ideology--

      I’ve heard conflicting stuff on this when it comes to war. Like I remember doing a grad seminar just on “Violence” as a concept (we read Zizek and also American Psycho)and I remember there was one book we read that posited that warfare historically was extremely low lethality BUT

      Replying to @BootlegGirl @perdricof and

      I’ve also heard that book has been challenged, like it was based on extrapolating from “primitive” or “uncontacted” cultures whose war fighting was caught on video, but it’s unclear whether they were taking it as seriously as modern warfare or if it’s generalizable at all

      there's been some discussion of this over at bret devereaux's blog, where he presents the scholarly consensus as this ancient /set piece battles/ were very low lethality, but also they weren't the real meat of ancient warfare raids and ambushes were, and those were quite lethal

          Oh yeah, anyone who acts like premodern war wasn't super lethal, Europe or not, and often in the absence of a state extraordinarily brutal is kidding themselves.

          Weren’t like most deaths also separate from the battles/fights themselves and mostly like the result of things like infected wounds and food poisoning starvation in the aftermath?

          Medieval war was mostly raids and sieges, both quite lethal. Pitched battles were very rare. Macdonald, https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/handle/20.500.12657/30740/643110.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y …pic.twitter.com/6w78aL32DR

          That's as much because the mechanisms of a set piece battle are really hard to engineer with the small and rather limited armies of the time as anything else, though.
